"Murder Set Pieces" is probably one of the most controversial and intense movies of the last years, not least because of the gruesome and brutal events spread all over the entire movie. The plot is very much the same: a sick, twisted psychopath evolves an extraordinary hatred for women. Years later, he puts his hatred into action and kills women in the most vicious way after raping and torturing them before. So it was foreseeable that movie wouldn't have it easy when it came to its releases. In the UK and Germany for instance, it couldn't have been released in the first place. In the UK, the BBFC refused to give it a rating which made it impossible to distribute. The reason for that was the plot which combines sex, violence and misogony that also infringes on little children. In Poland, it was the first movie ever only people with the minimum age of 21 were allowed to watch. Regarding the US, its longest version (105 min) was rated NC-17 for its theatrical release but this version has never been released so far. On DVD, a strongly censored R-Rated Version and an uncut Unrated DC was released. Besides a lot of violence, the R-Rated Version lacks some plot as well. But then again, it also contains some scenes that are not in the Unrated DC. This fact indicates that the R-Rated Version isn't based on the Unrated DC. As a matter of fact, the R-Rated Version is based on the original Theatrical Version (105 min) which has never been relased so far, as already mentioned.

He stops in front of his girlfriend's house and enters. Him and his girlfriend start fighting since she is upset that he rarely ever stops by. She hits and insults him angrily. Thus, he grabs her neck and screams at her. He wants to know why she thinks she's allowed to treat him like that. While she's lying on the floor gasping for breath, he reaches for his razor. Then he turns around and approaches her. After killing her (we only see a shot of her corpse) he walks to the little kid in the playpen and reaches out with the razor. However, he comes back to his senses and puts the razor down. He gets the screaming kid out of the playpen with his bloodbesmeared hands and looks at it. While still screaming, the kid runs to its dead mother who is leaning against a wall; we see that she has several wounds in her face. Then follows a transition to the next scene where we see the killer restlessly sleeping on his couch. He dreams about the World Trade Center attacks and a little girl which he had killed gets back to life to look at him. Bathed in sweat and with blood running out of his nose he wakes up.
