I ain't watched the SF disc yet....it's rated PG13 on the back cover!

However, viewing it again I don't suppose a cut version has lost much and I wouldn't put off people with a low tolerance for this sort of stuff; it's just my OCD that prevents me from having a cut version in my collection.

EDIT: I've seen some claims the shots of the raccoon writhing on the floor were done with an animal that was deliberately poisoned... I don't know if that is true or not?
According to DVD Compare, the Eureka release is complete, with the previous cuts being reinstated
