* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Director Damiani's original cut featured several scenes cut after negative reactions from the producers and test audiences. These include:
** A graphic rape scene of Anthony anally raping Dolores, and an extended incestuous sex scene between Sonny and Patricia. These scenes were put in specifically by Damiani in order to upset and unsettle audiences.
** A scene of Anthony drinking on the porch and cleaning his gun.
** A scene of Jan pushing Mark's head under the water while he takes a bath.
** An alternative ending in which the spirits of the dead appear outside the house, and are blessed by Father Adamsky.
** A shot of Jan and Mark holding hands and looking out the window appears in the theatrical trailer, but is nowhere to be scene in the film proper.
