Compared are the R-Rated VHS by Imperial Entertainment and the uncut UK DVD by Universal (BBFC 18).
The differences: 6 cuts = 57.5 seconds. 2 cuts with alternate footage = 11.5 seconds. The King of the Kickboxers is the forth installment of the No Retreat No Surrender series and it is quite violent. Different cuts for different countries were made. In some countries, the movie is not available uncut. In the UK for instance, the BBFC 18 VHS by 4 Front Video lacks 45 seconds. The UK DVD however is uncut. In the US, only a cut version is available, too. The R-Rated VHS by Imperial Entertainment lacks footage of approx. 1 minute. If anyone would like to buy the uncut version, I would recommend the UK DVD or the Australian DVD. 12 Min
