Does anybody know if there is more than one cut of the movie? The UK DVD release has just been announced, and after checking into it, the various online retailers all list it as running to about 85 minutes, but the BBFC have it down as about 82 minutes.
Some more digging led to the following results:
Cinema release - 85 minutes (according to the IMDB)
US laserdisc/DVD release - 89 minutes
UK VHS release - 85 minutes*
If the IMDB listing is correct, this suggests that around four minutes were added to the movie for it's original home video releases. If the IMDB is wrong, this suggests that the version the BBFC saw was cut.
Anyone?

* Since movies run 4% fast on UK video, an 89 minute movie will shrink to 85 minutes, and an 85 minute one to 82 minutes.
