I already think I know the answer to this question, but just wanted to confirm my fears:
**Spoiler Ahead!**
Ok here's my question...obviously this version is the cut one - yet sometimes when a company goes to find the best source material possible for a DVD release, it ends up perhaps giving you a different cut of the film than the prior VHS release (as in the case of the original Friday the 13th). So...in the original "My Bloody Valentine", we HAD a closeup of the killer ripping his arm off at the end to escape being trapped in some rocks after a cave in or something. In the cut version, I guess you can't really notice this - again it's been awhile since I've seen this - I'm going off what I've read. Apparently this version has shown up in revivals of the film over the years such as in England. Well I'm wondering if this cut DVD features this segment at least even though it cuts out a significant amount of other gore such as a closeup of a guy getting a pickaxe through his head coming out of his eye and a cool beheading scene. Again, I thought you may have mentioned this if you noticed any thing different, but just wanted to make sure this was just the same as the original VHS.
