After being refused classification originally, the film will be released after 32 clips have been cut from the film... for good reason too.
We all know why the first was so shocking, and this one is basically just that with more people, but there are even more things here that... well... ummm...
Just look for yourself, the cut things speak for themselves.
To those who are not throwing up after reading that, I'm sure you can see why these were cut from the film. The US version was unrated and had midnight screenings only. They handed out barfbags complimentary and even had an ambulance stationed outside, all as a joke! However, someone actually felt sick enough that REAL paramedics had to be called in.

Calumon: I hate blindfolds, why do I have to wear earmuffs too? Not fair!
Jack: If I'm not allowed to see that stuff because I'm British, then you're sure as heck not going to be allowed to hear ANYTHING about this thing!
