The for a TV production quite gory horror action movie "Full Eclipse", starring Mario Van Peebles, Bruce Payne and Patsy Kensit, was produced by the US Pay-TV network HBO and was released in the States as both a R-Rated and an Unrated version. These two versions could be bought on VHS, newer DVD releases only contain the uncut movie (despite having an R-Rating). The uncut version was released in other countries as well.

As is usual for a cut down R-Rated version, the cuts are quite small but numerous. Almost every cut to a gory shot wound was removed, the same applies to any depictions of drug abuse or sexual intercourse and any swear words like "Fuck" (and its variants à là "fucking", "Motherfucker!" etc.), "Shit", "Dickhead", "Prick", which have been overdubbed with more harmless insults. Because the latter changes are ver many and distributed over the whole movie, they will not be presented in detail here in order not to lengthen this report unnecessarily.

The picture of the US DVD is rather bad, especially in dark scenes it is quite grainy. The R-Rated VHS also features a blue color filter which was not applied in the DVD version. The picture of the VHS is also generally darker.
