"The Whole Bloody Affair"
A special NC-17 rated edition of Kill Bill which will include Volume 1 and Volume 2 edited as one film ("Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair") will be
released on 4 DVDs some time in late 2007 or early 2008. The film will run fully at 247 minutes (4 hours and 7 minutes).
Differences in Japanese cut
While the American cut of the movie shows the violent battle at the House of Blue Leaves in black-and-white, the Japanese cut shows it in color. In
addition, the Japanese cut includes a few extra bits of violence distributed throughout the film, most notably during the anime sequence and the
showdown at the House of Blue Leaves.
Furthermore, the Japanese cut shows the Bride cutting off Sophie's other arm during her interrogation. This creates a continuity error, as Sophie
still appears to have one arm as she rolls down the hill toward the Hospital in a later scene. These cuts were made to the U.S. version in order to
avoid an NC-17 rating. |
