There's a horrible scene involving a razor blade that's been cut out with substitution (34 seconds which doesn't sound like alot of screen time, but is if you count it). I can tell you it's a sickening scene.
Plus, when you consider shocking films like Audition, Irreversible, and Eden Lake are all uncut here, then I think it puts it into perspective.
I'm actually not a fan of The New York Ripper. I think it's a pretty average giallo, and the killer's ''Donald Duck'' voice is just embarrassing.
That said, from your comments I do wonder if you're getting anything out of these old italo horror films. They are an acquired taste for sure. I'm a huge fan and love harping on about them, but lets face it, most of them are complete crap. From the sounds of it the pleasure I get from them is very different to what you are looking for in a horror film.
