Yeah, it's probably the most bizarrely BBFC-nuked action flick I can think of, because a lot of the cuts aren't especially violent - they took out the two guys getting bloodlessly blown through the warehouse windows but left the grisly scene where Arnie pulls his impaled hand off the nail intact?! I always remember wincing at that and thinking it was one of the most uncomfortable bits of violence I'd seen in a film. And it's not like the bulk of the censorship has anything to do with their perennial pet hates like headbutts, nunchucks or knives.
Back before the internet was a thing I was always really confused by not seeing the baddies' deaths in particular, because I must've caught the film on TV at some point and remembered seeing the limo getting smashed.
But anyway, f**k them - as soon as the world wide web became a thing I bought an uncut Australian DVD
Come to think of it, I'm not sure it's actually had an uncut release in the UK... I don't think it's reached Blu-ray here yet.
