Taaffe O'Connell lying there covered with goo

It appears that actress Taaffe O'Connell went commando underneath her uniform. This proved practical for the upcoming giant worm stripping sequence; it reduced the amount of clothing to be forcibly removed. According to official accounts today, the original film contained a little more graphic content. But Roger Corman had to edit some out in order to retain a R rating. The question is what that deleted content showed. There are no deleted scenes unfortunately, in the July 20, 2010 digitally remastered dvd. But ah, in the July 20, 2010 dvd release, an interview of one of the special effects directors revealed that what was cut were a few snippets showing the giant worm caterpillar doing some humping motions on top of Taaffe. Also cut were a few snippets showing Taaffe expressing forcible sexual arousal. So if we were worried that additional nudity was cut, don't worry. The special effects director added that all the deleted rape scene bits and pieces were trashed which means it's gone forever. But it looks like we didn't miss much.
