- The original UK cinema version was cut heavily by the BBFC to edit scenes of gore including the ice tongs stabbing, a man's body sinking into an acid bath, sounds of screaming during the binocular murder and shots of a woman's decapitated head being placed into a bag (a proposed cut to the shot of the bloodstained binoculars was never made). Later releases all feature the same cut print and it appears this footage may now be lost forever.
- The "Hypno-Vista" segment was removed from American International's television release prints.
- The U.S. version of this film, released by American International, featured a special introductory segment titled "Hyno-Vista" that was spliced into the film at the end of the opening credits. This 12 minute segment featured Dr. Emile Franchel, a London born psychologist working in Los Angeles, giving a lecture and demonstration of the power of suggestion, perception and hypnosis (his specialty).
