Production

Cut and Run was originally slated to be directed by Wes Craven with the working title Marimba.^[5] It was initially going to star Tim McIntire, Dirk Benedict, and Christopher Mitchum.^[6] The film was produced in two separate versions, a "softer" R-rated cut intended for the North American market, and a "harder" version for theatrical release in Europe. The latter features additional, graphic kill scenes and gore not present in the former. Several key sequences were shot twice, once with a "soft" take, and a second time with a "harder" take.^[7]

Release

Cut and Run was released in Italy 8 August 1985.^[1] It was released in the United States by New World Pictures on 2 May 1986.^[1] After being absent on home video for many years, the film was released on Blu-ray by Code Red, with a new 2K restoration of both the R-rated and Unrated cuts.^[8]
