In the trailer there are blood gushing out from the wounds, and in the film her face is skinned on the splinters but without the blood... It was quite some time since I saw it, but as I recall I couldn't see any obvious cuts and I couldn't see where the blood-frames could have fit in the scene... I got the impression that they used some alternative footage in the film.

Perhaps someone has the integral version/bootleg from Midnight Video on VHS? At least they claimed to have the most complete version.

Anyway, I have the following Massaccesi films:

Absurd
Anthropophagus
Beyond the Darkness
Emanuelle and the Last Cannibals
Frankenstein 2000
War Baby / Devil in the Flesh

and I think Emanuelle and the Last Cannibals is the most entertaining, but I can't really say any of them is good...
