This work was originally seen for advice in an unfinished form. The company was advised that the film was likely to receive a 15 certificate but that their preferred 12A classification could be achieved by making a number of cuts to reduce the bloody violence. When the finished version of the film was submitted for formal classification, edits had been made to reduce sequences of bloody violence, including blood sprays from both bullet impacts and machete blows. The formal submission was consequently rated 12A.
