That movie made me sick in my stomach when I watched it as a teenager back in the 90s, certainly not a flick for everyone.
- I remember I had to pause the film and leave the room to calm down a bit. Never anything like this happened to me while watching a movie. Definitely not for everyone.
My goodness, this looks odd, but it has charm. So I'll give it a watch. Thanks for the suggestion.

edit: How do I know if I'm watching the EU uncut version vs the US release?
- IIRC I have the uncut version and its 1:36:18 with end credits included. The cut version is rated Unrated in the US, the uncut is NC-17 and released by Criterion. There is also an Australian cut version.
  
  imdb has a list of the different versions under "Alternate versions", but obviously it contains massive spoilers as it lists the missing scenes.
