Movies targeted at young male viewers often include a fair bit of raunch —as much as the MPAA will allow, generally. Usually some of the "good stuff" ends up cut in order for the movie's theatrical release to obtain an R or even PG-13 rating, since most theaters won't show NC-17 movies (leaving the rating essentially the province of art films made without the goal of making back their investors' money) and even an R may exclude a lot of teenagers with ready spending cash. When it's time for the DVD release, there will then be two editions: the theatrical cut with the same rating, and the Unrated Edition with additional footage. Unlike Deleted Scenes on many DVD releases, the Unrated Edition has the cut footage inserted back into the movie in its original location. And the marketing will imply, but not outright state, that this new footage is chock full of bare-breasted women and that the Unrated Edition is just shy of actual hardcore pornography. Alternately, Unrated Editions of Horror and Action Genre films will include Gorn that was removed from the theatrical release. Clearly this is never the case. First, no major studio wants the stigma of releasing a movie that's too dirty, and A- and B-list actors would likely not be interested, either. And due to the MPAA rules, any new cut of a movie technically has to be re-rated. This means that the studio could add (or even remove) one second of footage and the movie is now "unrated". The general rule is that the font size of the word "unrated" on the DVD cover is inversely proportional to the amount of "good stuff" that was added. If you can barely see the cast behind a giant "unrated" stamp, prepare to be disappointed. Several studios use the same packaging for the U.S. and Canadian markets as well, causing certain "unrated" editions to actually feature a Canadian Home Video Ratings System rating, since that system does not allow for unrated releases. Chances are the "Unrated" stamp will be used to conceal a pair of otherwise exposed breasts, to establish exactly what they are offering. Why not just release the Unrated Edition in the theater to begin with? Most movie theaters in the United States will not show unrated films. And in many cases, the Unrated Edition still would've garnered only an R rating anyway. By implying that it's too-hot-for-R, the studio can trick consumers into paying to see the movie twice: once in the theater, and again for the extra scenes. Especially in countries like the US, where DVD rental stores are more likely to fall back on the First Amendment than theaters are. If the studio executives are feeling especially devious, they will release the Unrated Edition a month or two after the Vanilla Edition in hope of squeezing three paid viewings out of us. In the UK DVDs have to be rated by the same body that rates films and selling actually-unrated DVDs is a criminal offence. Therefore they're just sold as extended editions ("Unseen and Explicit", "Extended and Unsanitized" and so on) instead of being unrated. They also don't generally bother to release the cinema versions on DVD. All the extra "explicit" and "unsanitised" material rarely actually raises the film's rating. A film or DVD can be refused classification by the BBFC, but this only happens in very, very extreme cases. Although having a DVD touted as "rude, naughty and uncut", but then seeing a 12 or 15 rating symbol next to it makes you wonder why they even bother—if it's still a 12 or 15, then it's not that rude or naughty. In Australia, when they don't just dump a reregioned UK release that possibly includes things cut out by the UK censors before it even arrives for rating in Australia, then they just get it called unrated. (Not that they even need to do that for Australia, as region encoding enforcement is illegal there. note There are, however, a few rights and distribution issues preventing direct imports, not to mention there are still some region-locked players.) It is utterly hilarious to get unrated editions that only get an M rating (basically, PG-13 with the age recommendation being 15). Compare Re-Cut, Limited Special Collector's Ultimate Edition, Vanilla Edition, Too Hot for TV. |

The unrated cut of The Wicker Man (2006) removes the "six months later" epilogue, possibly because the film's status as a critical and commercial failure rendered the Sequel Hook moot. However, it adds the memetic scene where the protagonist, played by Nicolas Cage, is tortured with bees. | |

The first Mardock Scramble film was released in Japan in two separate forms: a PG-12 theatrical version which left the most explicit material implied, and an unrated "director's cut" which shows the main character, a teen prostitute, in various graphic sex scenes. | |

Live Free or Die Hard was shot as an R-rated film, like the first three Die Hards, with the director initially unaware it was slated to be PG-13. Reshoots and cuts were made to fit PG-13 for theatres, but the original R-rated version was the one released on DVD and Blu-ray in most markets. Most notably McClane's catchphrase "Yippee-Ki-Yay, motherfucker" is uncensored from the PG-13 theatrical release. | |

The Girl Next Door (2004): The video release came wrapped in a cardboard bandnote labeled "Unrated Version" that covered Elisha Cuthbert's picture from her (bare) shoulders to her (bare) thighs, suggesting she was naked underneath. In true faux-Censor Box form, the picture under the band differed only slightly from the Vanilla Edition cover.note In fact, the only additional "skin" on the Unrated version's cover is her bare shoulders - already visible before the band is removed. | |

Inverted with Scarface (1983), which was originally rated X for graphic violence. Brian De Palma was forced to trim several violent scenes for an R rating, but that version was never released; instead, De Palma got sneaky and released the uncut version to theatres with the R rating tacked on. Played straight with De Palma's Dressed to Kill. The theatrical version had a bit of gore, full-frontal nudity, and graphic sexual dialogue trimmed out to avoid an X rating. The unrated version on home video (which is also included in The Criterion Collection release) restores all of this. |

The unrated version of Epic Movie (2007) features full-frontal nudity for some scenes. For example, when the wardrobe is first opened, a girl runs out and tells Lucy not to go in there. In the theater cut, she's wearing a bikini. In the unrated DVD version, she's entirely nude. The gross vomiting scene is also extended in the unrated version. | |

Road Trip is a particularly shining example of the rule about the inverse relationship of the size of the "unrated" stamp and the amount of good stuff. The entire cover except for Amy Smart's face is covered with brown paper, and the stamp is at least half the front of the box. New content consists of two seconds of one naked girl oiling another naked girl, right after five minutes of toplessness that were considered perfectly acceptable for the rated version. | |

Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie was originally released in the US in two versions: a PG-13 version that toned down most of the violence and an unrated version that kept it. Oddly enough, both versions edited Chun-Li's topless shower scene from the original Japanese cut, which was not included in any of the English releases until years later. | |

Absolutely Anything: The cinema release of the film is rated 12A, and DVD version rated 12 (Likely because of one of the bonus features). The Blu-ray edition however is rated 15, and according to the box it "contains added filth". But actually all that changed was a dozen or so instances of "feck" being changed to "fuck", and a few lines being added to one scene which contain some more swearing. The difference in run time between the DVD and Blu-Ray is a mere 19.3 seconds. | |

Caligula has been released in a number of formats and ratings, but any version considered "unrated" will almost certainly be so for good reason and contain many explicit scenes of hardcore sex, compared to the relatively tame togas-and-boobs costume drama of the general releases. | |

Rare inversion: the unrated version of Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker is actually the drastically edited version. This is because most animated direct-to-video features aren't submitted to the MPAA, since it's not required for video release and since they're all assumed to be kid-friendly. Warner Bros. sent out promotional copies of the movie before they decided to edit it, so certain animation sites were able to spot the differences in the retail version and report them to the public. WB eventually released the "Original Uncut Version" with a PG-13 rating to accommodate the content, which ranged from minor things such as extra punches to major things such as an alternate death scene. | |

After its initial airing, The Comedy Central Roast Of Pamela Anderson released an unrated version on DVD which was even raunchier than the original. This is one of the rare occasions where the uncensored version did get aired on syndication, as it was played on "The Secret Stash", Comedy Central's 1 am block where they'd show uncut and uncensored movies and TV specials. In fact it was one of the most frequent things played in that time slot. | |

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World. When it was released overseas, the first season featured unrated footage (female nudity) that was only seen during its pay-per-view television run (and never on syndication). However, this set was not advertised as being unrated, and is different from the U.S. boxsets released (which are censored). | |

The U.S. season one boxset of Lexx has all its episodes uncensored (much like its original run on Showtime), but truncates a number of scenes to accommodate commercial breaks. The U.K. DVD boxsets have all the scenes in full except for the unrated content. Later seasons of the show were unrated in European DVD sets, while otherwise truncated in U.S. printings. | |

In the 2005 version of The Dukes of Hazzard there is an unrated scene of the boys crashing in on topless college coeds. | |

The unrated version of Seed of Chucky is a pretty bad offender—the only added full-length Deleted Scene is less than two minutes long and isn't any more mature than the rest of the film. The real draw, however, is a single deleted close-up shot of Chucky masturbating - hence the packaging blurb, "UNRATED AND FULLY EXTENDED: Featuring A First-Hand Look At Chucky's Dirtiest Deed!" | |

Adventureland had an astonishing example that bordered on false advertising. There's a stamp on the cover that says "UNRATED"... and in smaller letters beneath it, "bonus features." If you're new to DVDs: Almost all bonus features are unrated on any DVD. Needless to say, the movie on the disc was the movie shown in theaters. | |

Leisure Suit Larry: Magna Cum Laude was originally rated AO by the ESRB, which stores like Target and Walmart would have refused to sell, so it was edited down to a mature rating in the US and Canada. The European edition wasn't edited and featured a disclaimer on the packaging highlighting that it was "uncut". This version was eventually released in North America as the Uncut and Uncensored version. Unsurprisingly, the main differences were full-frontal nudity and sex scenes. | |

The DVD case for I Am Legend promises a "controversial", "unrated" alternative ending. This was actually the original planned ending, changed not because of content, but because test audiences absolutely hated it. For the curious, the ghouls turn out to actually be intelligent, and the main character is able to convince them to leave him alone. | |

At least the German TV version of Blade (1998) was censored: It was hinted, that the vampires were exploding (with blood flying everywhere), when Blade shot them with these darts with the special serum... In the DVD version, it was shown. | |

The Doom movie actually did include porn in its unrated version, assuming a not-all-that-explicit T&A sequence featuring a nude, blood-soaked, demonically-possessed woman with a severed arm qualifies as porn. | |

Fall: The UK Blu-Ray contains the "theatrical release" and the "uncut version." The theatrical release redubs most of the F-bombs and digitally alters the mouth movements. The uncut version is actually two seconds shorter than the theatrical release (theatrical is 1:46:52, uncut is 1:46:50). | |

Sex Drive had an interesting take on this. On the unrated DVD, the writers appeared before the film, and explained that they were forced to make the DVD, even though they had no real "unrated" content. Therefore, they simply added gratuitous shots of naked men and women at random throughout the film, as well as adding some extra takes. They then explained that if you hadn't seen the original, you should watch that version first, as that was the version that they had wanted to make. | |

Old School: The good news is that the unrated edition contains more nudity. The bad news is that it's mostly Will Ferrell. It's worth noting that the director of the above two, Todd Phillips, is openly critical of this practice. |

The "unrated & fully uncurled" edition of Deep Space 69 is available on Google Play. The major difference between it and the version on YouTube seems to be that several scenes where girls were wearing lingerie... well, they aren't anymore. | |

The Australian theatrical, DVD and Blu-Ray versions of John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum had a moment in which Wick drives a knife into a mook's eye edited so the gory detail is left out of frame. Like the above, this was done so the film could receive an MA 15+ rating, and the 4K UHD version of the film is uncensored and rated R 18+. | |

Bad Santa and Badder Santa Which in turn got a second unrated version in the form of Bad Santa: The Director's Cut. This version is the shortest of the releases since Terry Zwigoff disowned the first two cuts and is said to be much darker. The Blu-Ray has the second and third cuts of the film. |

Twice Upon a Time is an inverted case. It was originally going to be a clean family-friendly film but a much more vulgar redub happened behind director John Korty's back to get a PG rating. The film's theatrical release would be this PG-rated explicit dub that outraged families and was aimed more towards college stoners. The PG-rated theatrical cut would be aired on HBO a few times before being pulled under Korty's wishes. The home video releases would come with the original clean, family-friendly cut which would be unrated. The Warner Archive DVD comes with both PG (explicit) and unrated (clean) audio tracks. | |

The American Pie series. In fact, the entire reason for releasing an unrated edition (one of the first on DVD) was due to the fact that the film had leaked online as a workprint before its theatrical run. The creators apparently admitted that the release of that version was due to piracy. | |
