- Early prints contain a scene in Medieval world where a guest is tortured on a rack. That scene was deleted from television and video.
- Westworld was first aired on NBC television in 1976. The network aired a slightly longer version of the film than was shown theatrically or subsequently released on home video. Some of the extra scenes that were added for TV version are; Brief fly-by exterior shot of the hovercraft zooming just a few feet above the desert floor. Previously, all scenes involving the hovercraft were interior shots only. The scenes with the scientists having a meeting in the underground complex was much longer giving more insight into their ""virus"" problem with the robots. A scene with a couple of techs talking in the locker room about the work load of each robot world. There was a longer discussion between Peter and the sheriff after his arrest when he shot the Gunslinger. During the scene where robots are going crazy,there was a scene in Medieval World where a guest is getting tortured on the Medieval rack. At first he tries joking while getting dragged to the rack and saying ""What is this, a joke? Hey! I paid in advance!"" But then he really gets desperate and says ""I really don't want to do this!"" and then starts to scream as he gets placed on the rack and stretched and then his arms are pulled out of their sockets. One still shot shows piece of this scene with guest on rack while one of the robots wearing some kind of hood is standing next to him. Gunslinger's chase of Peter through the worlds was also extended. There was a scene added in which Gunslinger is splashing water on his face from the sink after being hit with the acid, he recovers and then there was a close-up of his face when he turns around real fast and his silver eyes turned into black and crazy look. Many more extra scenes were added.
- When originally released theatrically in the UK, the BBFC made cuts to secure a 'AA' rating. All cuts were waived in 1986 when the film was granted a '15' certificate for home video.
