Comparison between PG-13 rated version and Unrated version.

Shutter> is the mediocre US remake of the 2004 Thai horror film. Benjamin and Jane are newly wed and spend their honeymoon in Japan. During a night drive Jane runs over a young woman which mysteriously disappeared after the accident. What seems like a nightmare soon becomes reality when shapes of the woman start to appear on Ben and Jane's photos.

The majority of the new Unrated material are uninteresting scene extensions which might have been cut because of the running time. Two violence extensions have been made: Bruno falling to the ground and the finale in which Benjamin injures himself.
