Unrated: 130.45 Min. with End Credits
Theatrical: 121 Min. with End Credits Unrated: 122.51 Min. without End Credits Theatrical: 113.08 Min. without End Credits The Theatrical Version has been cut at 19 points. These cuts include only one violence cut, the rest are plotcuts which should top the development of Hannibal off. Here and there alternative shots and mirroring of the video footage was used. The additional plot scenes reveal the cruelty of Grutas and his men even more than in the theatrical cut. The violence cut at the end of the movie, as Hannibal finally kills Grutas, shows the audience the diabolic and cold side of Hannibals Personality in very atmospheric and brutal pictures.
