* ReCut: Cinema owners and projectionists would sometimes make their own cuts to the finished movie. There's also some debate on what the "true" uncut version of this film really is. The film supposedly ran 91-minutes uncut for a short while before Craven grew uneasy over the content and trimmed it down to 81 minutes. Three additional minutes were restored in the 80s for a reissue, and this is the "uncut" version usually released today. The supposed 91 minute version is the stuff of fan legend, and some don't believe it ever existed, and that the 84 minute cut was the complete version all along. Some believe that a 91 minute version once existed, but that the remaining cut footage is lost. Others believe that it does exist, but that the rights-holder (MGM) simply [[ExecutiveMeddling won't let the footage be restored]]. There's also an early work-print edit titled "Krug & Co." that's similar to the 84-minute version, but with a few different takes, choppier editing, and a completely different scene of the parents finding Mari (she's alive, and describes her attackers before dying).

His father's and uncle's behavior are erratic at best so there is no reason for him to believe that just because they say they won't be coming back doesn't mean they won't be coming back. He could have easily just gone and got the drugs and then come back to the store. Krug even makes a good point when they are all in the room about how thinking they wouldn't be coming back is no excuse for breaking the "Don't bring anyone back to the room" rule and him having to face the consequences of that action. ]]
