- Alternate versionsTo receive an "18" certificate, the 1986 UK home video version suffered 13 minutes of cuts by the BBFC. These included heavy cuts to the sex change operation scene in Singapore, as well as cuts to scenes of women being whipped and covered in candle wax during the Tokyo S&M show and a scene of a turtle being clubbed to death by poachers.

Featured review
"Shocking Asia 1" is part of a trilogy on Asian culture. The problem is most of it seems well fabricated. Although their are some legitimately shocking scenes it's not all surprises. A variety of topics cover such interests as sacred temples, Asian foods we'd rather not touch, strange spiritual beliefs and even a segment on she-males. It is still unlike anything you've ever seen before, so if your not too squeamish and want a sometimes silly, sometimes shocking look at Asian culture have a look. Keep in mind the narration seems to exaggerate what you are seeing. As a word of caution I would not use this video or it's two sequels to complete a history report on Asia.
