Children of the Corn (1984)


LWT (other ITV regions as well) on Saturday 9/5/1987 showed a much longer cut of this film than the version that eventually made it to theaters and video. Amongst the missing footage:

A longer prologue where several other adults are killed, most noticlbly a deputy whose throat is slashed and then stabbed in the chest, and a farmer who is hacked to death outside his barn by a group of pick-axe wielding kids.
A scene between Sarah and Job's parents before the slaughter. They talk over the breakfast table about Sarah's drawings of the upcoming massacre and how they think something awful is about to happen.
A scene where Isaac prays to He Who Walks Behind The Rows only to receive a horrific vision of his impending fate.

Can be viewed via imdb Alternate Versions webpage.

Sea of Love (1989)

Several scenes featuring Lorraine Bracco as Al Pacino's wife were cut before release and reinserted for the film television premiere on BBC1.

These additions were all included on the Universal Thrillers VHS edition of the film. They are as follows:

1. Frank sees a suspicious man on the street and calls for back-up from a nearby pay phone. It is revealed that this man is a personal bodyguard for a child at a nearby school. Parts of this scene were included in the original theatrical trailer.

2. The complete scene with Lorraine Bracco in which she pleads with Frank to stop bothering her and her husband. She also reveals that she is pregnant.

3. Frank comes home to his apartment and is surprised by his father, played by William Hickey, who is already in the apartment. His father tells him about an old partner who just passed away.

DVD features three deleted scenes; however, the scenes featuring Lorraine Bracco are not included.

Evil Dead (2013)

Channel 4 showed an alternate cut on 01/25/2015 running an extra 4m 10s. It is not known where this cut came from, but it is assumed that StudioCanal provided the alternate print in error to Channel 4 with the following added scenes.

Natalie says "Give me back my hand" when she gets possessed. (Nod to Evil Dead 2)
Mia sings "We're gonna get you" in the cellar (which is the infamous scene in the trailers)
After Natalie dies, David tells Eric he has to get rid of the bodies so he burns Olivia's body and cuts Natalie's body with a chainsaw.
A clip of Eric coming into the room and drinking rainwater that's in a plastic container catching dripping water.
There are shots of Eric burning in flames when the cabin is on fire. He says "Join us..."
There is a shot of David burning and he then opens his eyes, clearly possessed.
The final scene is Mia walking on the road. A truck driver in an S-Mart van drives and sees her.


Can anyone else add to the above titles?
That COTC showing has recently (finally!!) turned up. Hopefully something can be done with it.
