10 Horror Movie Deleted Scenes We Desperately Need To See

10. My Bloody Valentine – The Lost Lovers

2009 saw Scream editor Patrick Lussier remake Canadian slasher My Bloody Valentine, and the cutter-turned-director did all he could to up the gore and nudity quotient in his R-rated re-do, throwing in some truly outrageous gore and an extended nude scene which managed to push the buttons of censors even in the lax post-torture porn era of the late noughties.

But he still couldn’t beat the original, tragically lost cut of this 1981 Canadian slasher flick.

Whilst many of its once-censored scenes have been recovered in the decades since, the original film's director lamented that an ambitious sequence which saw a pair of lovers skewered together by a mining drill is gone for good.

Without any footage surviving, it's perhaps best left to director George Mihalka himself to describe just what horror fans are missing from this excised scene:

"There was a scene with the two kids in the mine and they’re joined together forever... They’re just necking and Tom’s lying on top of [Harriet] and the miner comes in and puts the [drill] through him. She’s got her eyes closed and thinks he’s just being a little frisky. She opens her mouth and her eyes just widen as he bleeds into her mouth. Then the miner goes whoomp! And [stabs straight through] them both. That scene had to be taken out totally. It has disappeared and we’ll never see it."
