- The full 157-minute version contains sex and violence that garnered the film an X-rating in the U.S. Many video versions were trimmed to 150 minutes and rated R. The R2 DVD published by Istituto Luce in DVD has the shorter, cut version.
- The 2004 Warner Brothers Region 1 DVD is the full uncut 157-minute version. Originally rated X, it was re-rated R when resubmitted to the MPAA, but only after the "Night of Long Knives" sequence was heavily trimmed.
- When "The Damned" was first acquired by CBS for its premiere TV broadcast in the early 1970s, so many cuts were required to meet the much stricter (at the time) network censor guidelines that one CBS executive joked that the movie should be retitled "The Darned". This heavily cut print was shown numerous times during the early and mid-1970's.
