New German Blu-ray Presents ‘Ghoulies II’ Uncut for First Time Ever
You have never seen Ghoulies II uncut. And that’s a problem we must rectify.
To make a long story short, Ghoulies II had just about 60-seconds cut out from its original release, and that’s unfortunately the only version of the film that has ever been released on home video over the years. But that changes tomorrow, when German company NSM Records finally releases the 1988 sequel fully uncut and on Blu-ray!
We thank Graham Le Neve Painter, who runs the fan site Ghoulies Movies, for bringing this one to our attention. Graham told us that he has watched the NSM release and can confirm that it’s the previously unreleased full version of the film.
“I was asked to look over a cut of Ghoulies II for NSM Records who are releasing Ghoulies and Ghoulies II on beautiful English language Blu Ray mediabooks in Germany tomorrow,” he told us today. “I’ve just had confirmation that Ghoulies 2 is the original R Rated UNCUT version that has never been released on any format before. It also has a longer shot of Philip Hardin getting his ass eaten on the toilet as well as all the uncut scenes reinserted.”
The limited edition Blu-ray will include the following special features:
- 16-page Booklet
- “Under a Magic Moon” – Interview with Dennis Paoli

In Ghoulies II, the Ghoulies wreak havoc at an amusement park, disposing of those who mistake them for mere fairground attractions.

When best friends Glen (Stephen Dorff) and Terry (Louis Tripp) stumble across a mysterious crystalline rock in Glen’s backyard, they quickly dig up the newly sodden lawn searching for more precious stones. Instead, they unearth The Gate — an underground chamber of terrifying demonic evil. The teenagers soon understand what evil they’ve released as they are overcome with an assortment of horrific experiences. With fiendish followers invading suburbia, it’s now up to the kids to discover the secret that can lock The Gate forever . . . if it’s not too late.
If you’ve never seen The Gate, it’s now streaming on Prime Video and Tubi.
