I've just got hold of a copy of the gorgeous Ariana Jollee in the Gangbang Girl 35. I've read several reviews of this title, all which state that the film runs just over two hours, with Ariana's scene lasting just over an hour.
The copy I've got runs an hour and a half, total. Arianna's scene lasts about 37 mins.
The box cover is the same as on all the reviews I've read, it just seems that some of the action might be missing.
I bought the copy from the Soho Original Bookstore in London.
There are also, no extras on my copy, just the film and chapter search. Doesn't appear to be any of the 'pre/post-game' interviews or cumshot/rimjob recaps.

Can anyone shed any light on why I seem to have an inferior copy?

Is it the R18 version?

I'm guessing it is if you bought it in the UK.

This means that the censors (BBFC) have cut the film to remove the bits which were 'too hardcore'. For example rough sex, slapping, gagging and choking.

Has it got the 'Anabolic' logo on the cover? Some U.S studios licence out their dvds to European distributors who cut out the dvd extras when they press the discs (Eg: Dutch distibutors Night Trips and Shiva who take off the extras in their versions of Evil Angel and Redlightdistrict dvds...and the picture quality is worse!)

Personally, i would buy any American porn dvd through the retailers on this site. Because they are:
1. Uncensored (except really heavy stuff like Max Hardcore)
2. Alot cheaper (even after shipping)
3. Safer (some unlicenced shops in Soho will rip you off)

Check out the International shopping forum on this site for tips.

According to the BBFC website no cuts were made:

THE GANGBANG GIRL #35

Video Feature
Classified 17 June, 2004 .
Run Time 89m 46s

Advice for consumers
Concise Consumer advice is not supplied for the R18 category.

The main spoken language in this work is English.
The BBFC has placed this work in the ADULT genre(s).

When submitted to the BBFC the work had a running time of 89m 46s.
This work was passed with no cuts made.

At the time of classification Harmony Limited was the holder of the rights or the brand name for this work.

Directed by Christopher Alexander Producer(s) Anabolic

The cast for this work includes: Ariana Jollee, Audrey Hollander, Ashley Long.

But the BBFC does only count the running time of the movie, extra's are not included.

Anabloic doesn't list the running time on their site, Goliath lists it at 140 min, RogsReviews at 122 min, but neither make clear if this is including the extra's.
So either it was cut by Harmony or Anabolic before submitting it to the BBFC, or the reviewers counted the extra's/ Maybe somebody from Anabolic can tell us the real running time?

Yes, it is an R18 version, it has the blue R18 logo on the front cover. Other than that though, the cover is exactly the same as shown on sites such as this one, Anabolic logo and everything.
It could be the case that it has been cut, although I've bought tons of DVDs from the likes of the Soho Bookstore and Harmony stores in Soho before, and not once experienced a film that was cut, or shorter than the suggested running time. I've also watched plenty of films bought in these shops that contain the heavy stuff you mention (although if it is just gagging, choking etc.. that has been cut then I'd almost consider that a bonus!)

Here's a link to the cavr review site that claims the running time is over 2 hours. Interestingly, they even claim that Ariana's scene runs 62 minutes. That's what really gets me as I bought the film mainly for her scene, yet all I get on my copy is about 37 mins.
The reviews on the cavr site are always pretty acurate and the running times they give (and in my experience this is the same with at least 90% of review sites) are always for the actual film only, and do not include the bonus features.

I don't have a copy, so we have to wait if somebody with the original version is kind enough to tell us the running time.

Total running time of US feature: 2:03:37 (including FBI warning and Anabolic logo)

The amaray box cover advertises over an hour of extra which sounds about right since the Behind The Scenes footage is rather lengthy.

It sounds like Anabolic submitted a pre-censored chopped-down version to the BBFC so no additional edits were required.
