Bad news - it's been pre-cut by 2 seconds.

It’s also barely watchable ***** whose only claim to fame was getting prosecuted in Britain – something the marketers will be plugging for all it’s worth, as it’s got virtually no other selling point!

According to SexGoreMutants:

Following much speculation about the forthcoming DVD debut of Romano Scavolini's schlock gem 'Nightmares in a Damaged Brain', SGM have been in touch with producers 'Screen Entertainment' regarding the films rating status...

Although provisionally Screen Entertainment had cautiously mentioned on their early press releases that the film would be hitting DVD in a slightly cut version they were thrilled to hear that the folk at the BBFC have amazingly passed the film uncut. And although there may be some speculation that the distributors may have pre-cut the film before submission we can happily confirm that this is not the case. Screen told SGM that the US rights owner delivered a newly mastered version and that there were no pre-submission cuts! With regard to the running time concerns (95 mins 55 secs) 'Screen' state that this is no doubt down to the conversion speed. 'Nightmares in a Damaged Brain' will be released on DVD on April the 22nd.

" Nightmares at the BBFC
Another of the video nasties is returning to the video shop shelves. Nightmares in a Damaged Brain has just passed through the BBFC for an 18 certificate. It will be released on DVD & VHS on April 22nd. Further details at www.nightmareinadamagedbrain.co.uk

Initial indications were that it had passed uncut. The version submitted was in fact slightly pre-cut and the BBFC passed it without requiring further cuts.

A little further research revealed that the version submitted was obtained from US distributors and seems to be about 2 minutes shorter than the uncut version. Maybe an R rated version. This has not been confirmed as there seems to be some running time lost in the transfer. It has not been cut by the British distributor.

The end result is a version with a few small cuts along the lines of the UK cinema release. However there are less of them so it is about half way between the uncut version and the cinema version. The fact that there are some pre-cuts has also made the life of the BBFC a little easier. ie the released version is not that prosecuted during the panics of the video nasty era. Unsurprisingly, it took several viewings by the BBFC before the decision was reached."

I know who I believe.

Heres the link for those still disbelieving, though I agree with Brookie, one to miss anyway.

The only good thing about this movie is the title and the pre-cert video cover.
