It wouldn't pay off to get a "legal commission's" approval ("SPIO/JK geprüft" seal on the cover) for an edited cut either, as that other German censorship body- the BPJM- would put it instantly on their "B list" of the "Index of restricted Movies", which happened with mainstream fare like "Saw III and V" & "Hostel Part II", the latter has even been banned in a slightly cut version, with "SAW V" being cited as a likely canidate to follow soon, as the BPJM really rushed out this time in a hurry to stop the uncut version from being legally available for sale in Germany.


German fans have to import the uncut "Grotesque" in an expensive limited edition via Austria....
