It's on the US Rhino 8-on-2 DVD (Horrible Horrors Vol 1) which I picked up a while ago. Yes it's a nasty scene. No wonder Warren himself didn't like it.

My favourite Warren film though I prefer the uncut UK version.

Yes it's a long drawn out sequence, which was never really intended for the UK market. It shows Potter cutting off her clothes and then tracing the scissors over her body. I can't see it getting through for many years to come.

Like Vince I prefer the uncut UK DVD. Excellent film which I've always enjoyed.

I noticed that you haven't included Gunpowder (1984) on the list.

... satan's slave is a decent, solid horror film. i quite enjoyed it. shame warren's later work wasn't nearly as strong ...

... i watched the elite dvd version of inseminoid last night. it's like watching a completely different movie from the butchered vhs version of horror planet i found used in a pawn shop years ago. i think it's fair to describe inseminoid as bad, but bad in good way. it's clearly a low budget production done with much creativity and that adds to its charm. the moody opening titles are enjoyable ...

... one major question i need answered: what was the doctor's role in sandy's impregnation by the alien? the movie shows the doctor restraining sandy with a tranquilizer thus allow the alien rape ... was that for real? did the doctor actually accomodate the extra-terrestrial sexual violation?

When Rhino Video had the Crown catalog, they released an fullscreen version of the export version (the AB UK version is not cut so much as Warren's preferred version - the print had the scene in it but Warren inserted the softer version from another source). When BCI remastered the version for their 16:9 release, there print source was chopped up.

Scorpion Releasing is putting out new versions of SATAN'S SLAVE and TERROR (the AB UK version is the way to go for the extras, but it is a 16:9 reframing of a cropped source while the BCI transfer - which will probably be used for the Scorpion transfer - was a newer 16:9 transfer with better framing.
