Hmmm... what was actually cut out then? I seem to recall reading that Lynch had some issues with the film both prior to release during test screenings and also post-Cannes where he was ordered by the producers to alter a shotgun to the head scene for the US market to achieve an R Rating. Prior to Cannes he'd already removed some torture scenes on the back of the test screenings (I highly doubt whether this footage would have or ever will make it into any release).
