Original VHS is uncut version
The DVD is an edited version of the film. All of the erotic scenes are cut out.

The original VHS is the version you want to see. I don't know where you can buy it, but believe me, it doesn't show on Cinemax anymore for a reason-it was too hot for tv.

Don't blame the director-she didn't have anything to do with the editing of what they are calling the "director's cut."

Hotel Exotica For Her
When Ellen Evans directed this movie she managed to get sex scenes with energy, passion, sensuality, and creativity. Fans of softcore know how rare these things can be. An just how skilled a director has to be to accomplish them. Which make the directors cut of this movie (Which is being sold here) such a mystery. My only guess is that when she was given the chance to reedit this film she wanted a to make a version that she could watch with her 14 year old daughter, or maybe she was trying to get a job at the Hallmark Channel. What ever the reason if you are a fan of the Oxygen Network buy the Directors Cut, if you are fan of softcore get the original version.

Answer to DVD Situation
Here's the definitive word on the DVD version...
Koch got it wrong, plain and simple. The box both lists the runtime at 85 min. and the fact that it is supposed to be the Director's Cut. It isn't...it's the edited 71 min. version. I've never seen the VHS version, but you probably want to check that one out rather than the DVD.

Many of the bad reviews are referring to ANOTHER VERSION
I'm reading bad review after bad review which refer to the censored and cut DVD VERSION of this movie. This is incorrect and needs to be fixed by Amazon. The specific box UPC code which "leads" to this product page and Amazon ASIN number is for the NOT RATED video (VHS) version of this movie.

As we all know, "not rated" is the Hollywood euphamism for "we knew we couldn't get it past the film censor without it being cut to shreds, so we didn't even try".

BTW, both the box and the cassette case state that this VHS version is the FULL 90 minute (i.e.: uncut) version.

We are a seller. As part of our listing process we review all used movies for quality issues. And I gotta say: this is a pretty hot movie. 5 Stars for hotness, and to counter all the inappropriate 1's.....

Rip-Off! Stop Selling!
While the 'real' version of this movie, as shown on Cinemax and as sold in VHS, is about 90 minutes long, this DVD is only 71 minutes long.

Forget what the product description says, it is wrong! This is movie is a heavily edited version of Hotel Exotica with almost 20 minutes of footage cut!

Amazon should either stop selling this DVD or correct the information about it to say that it is NOT and uncut version and that it is only 71 minutes long.
