without adding anything to the running time of the R-rated theatrical cut, the unrated edition substitutes steamier footage into the film Eli watches while talking to Matt, and removes some digitized bikinis in part of the strip-club scene. (The new cut also has a more threatening scene between Matt and Kelly.) Don't expect to see more of star Elisha Cuthbert, though; she didn't do any nude scenes, as she explains in one of the five scenes she provides commentaryThis is a mirror image of the release and sales for the Unrated Eurotrip DVD (details here). There seems something a bit manipulative about releasing "adult" versions of teen comedies on video; surely distributors can't actually believe that these "unrated" versions actually attract an older audience (only an audience with access to any older person's credit card!).
