I doubt it.
I'm sure I am in a minority and to be fair , censor cuts are likely to be an issue with not many titles anyway.
But Arrow should be selective about the titles they choose as there would be little point in releasing Island of Death, I Spit On your Grave ,House On the Edge of the Park , Cannibal Holocaust etc where the scenes that give the films their reputations would be missing .
For example ,I believe the UK release of New York Ripper has cuts at the famous razor scene which is why I have the Blue Underground Bluray
Someone said somewhere the other day that they thought I Spit On Your Grave would get through with only 1.5 minutes of cuts today.
Any company who release such a film with that amount of cuts should have their wisdom questioned
