However checking for myself it does say "Contains strong bloody violence, some sexualised"

But still, the only way to judge is to see it for yourself.
Noss, I watched the film over the weekend, the uncut UK DVD.

In regards to sexual violence the film is very tame eg there are no scenes that either eroticise or endorse sexual violence, which were the grounds for cutting Cannibal Holocaust. In fact all scenes of sexual violence in the film are extremely brief and lack detail eg no lingering focus on nudity. So as far as BBFC policy on sexual violence is concerned this film simply can't be compared with HOLOCAUST. As far as the non sexual violence is concerned, there are some shocking scenes but again the scenes are usually quite brief. To be honest I'm not surprised the BBFC passed it uncut because there was nothing really to cut. Probably the films most disturbing scene was the attempted rape of a child, but here you see only 2 quick shots of them tearing at her clothes. Nothing more is seen.

I did like the film by the way, very compelling.
