The shot of Cropsy, the disfigured killer in The Burning (1981), holding his garden shears aloft before the film's signature raft massacre, deserves to be one of the iconic images of horror cinema. The Burning, which boasts strong, painful Tom Savini gore effects, went out in UK theaters with some trimming (as it did in US theaters), then turned up uncut on video. For its troubles, it got itself on the Video Nasties list, only to be released in 1992 with about 20 seconds of cuts, then uncut in 2001.
