Trauma (1993)
(Shot in and around Minneapolis, United States in August and September 1992)
Alternate versions
A special uncut version reportedly available on video features seven minutes of footage omitted from foreign prints, including:
a new introduction of the Aura and David characters: David drives Grace to the airport and sees Aura being beaten by a man whose plane ticket she tried to steal;
a new scene features Grace visiting David at the TV station and asking him about Aura. David invites Grace to his house and then calls Aura at home to ask her if she needs any food; Aura lies to him and tells she's already eaten;
Aura visits a market and is spotted by Dr. Jarvis, who tries to catch her;
After David and Aura escape from the Marigold, she tells him she's taken a little souvenir from Nurse Volkmann's purse; another new shot shows the Marigold's owner talking to the police;
David checks into a hotel after following Linda Quirk's car and asks for a room overlooking the parking lot;
David asks for information about Dr. Lloyd in a saloon;
After David calls Grace and asks her for prescription forms, she meets and confronts him, trying to make him face the fact that he's become a junkie;
The death scenes of Linda Quirck and of the killer are more graphic (the wire is seen cutting through Linda's neck).
The British Board of Film Classification cut the UK video release by six seconds. There are two cuts, both to shots of wire cutting into the necks of Linda and Adriana. However, these cuts were waived in 2002, and all subsequent DVD releases are uncut.
All UK video and DVD releases contain the shorter version.
