For its time, it did. It still is not available in the UK uncut (around 40 seconds of gore cut out & some zoomed in camera angles at other parts).
Many others are now available uncut (The Exorcist, Driller Killer and Last House On The Left).
In the UK Friday The 13th: The Final Chapter was cut until 4-5 years ago.
I was a teenager around the time that VHS was just starting out. Until that point the only horror and violence I had ever seen was that of Hammer House Of Horror (which I still enjoy), but that compared to: Superstition (AKA The Witch), I spit On Your Grave, Cannibal Ferox, Zombie Flesh Eaters, Evil Dead ETC.
Maybe thats why the music volume varies and music is now in sync with the movie as now what was shocking and unbelievable now is just something so ordinary and almost scoffed at.
