The original South African print of "The Demon" contains no nudity. The topless scenes were shot specifically for overseas audiences.
The video release on the label academy is cut: a short scene of the waves is cut and the scene where the demon throws a man down from a balcony is trimmed.
Some versions - such as the Danish VHS print - contain a modified ending wherein Cameron Mitchell's character re-appears, and seems to be watching the proceedings from the shadows immediately before the film cuts to the credits.
