[Random Cool] German Vs. American Cut Scenes Of Psycho!

Published

on

Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho is of course an all time classic and should never be messed with. But here’s an interesting bit of historical ephemera regarding an early cut of the film.

Apparently a German Televison broadcast showed a slightly different cut than the US Theatrical Version which is the standard we all know and love. I suppose perhaps German censors back in the day were less strict about the treatment of sensitive material than their US counterparts.

While the changes aren’t all that graphic, there is certainly a difference between the two cuts in some very key scenes. I wonder if Hitchcock himself regarded these uncut moments superior or if he was comfortable with the slightly tamed down mastery of the version that we’ve been watching for 50 years.

David Dastmalchian (Dune, The Suicide Squad) stars as Jack Delroy, the charismatic host of “Night Owls,” and the film traces the ill-fated taping of a live Halloween special in 1977 plagued by a demonic presence. The energetic and innovative feature hails from Australian writing-directing team Colin and Cameron Cairnes (100 Bloody Acres, Scare Campaign). 

Meagan Navarro wrote in her review for Bloody Disgusting, “Late Night with the Devil captures the chaotic energy of a late night show, embracing the irreverent comedy and stress of live television with a pastiche style. It’s a clever trojan horse for a surprising horror movie that goes full throttle on unhinged demonic mayhem.”

Late Night with the Devil was also praised by both Stephen King and Kevin Smith, with King tweeting: “Late Night with the Devil. It’s absolutely brilliant. I couldn’t take my eyes off it. Your results may vary, as they say, but I urge you to watch it when you can.”
