Question about the DVD. Edited?

I love this movie and bought the DVD about a year ago but only
just got around to watching it, turns out it's cracked and my
receipt is looong gone, so I'm gonna have to get a new copy.

I guess I'm fine with that, but when I went to Amazon there was
a prominent and coherent-enough looking review that claims the DVD
is edited to remove the whole arm scene. Which would obviously suck.
The scene was definitely included in VHS copies.

Since I can't confirm this on my damaged copy and don't really want
to add the price of a video rental to the price of re-purchasing a DVD
I already bought once I was hoping someone who has bought this film
recently can tell me for sure. I'll settle for fullscreen VHS over
edited DVD if I have to make the choice :(

So: Does the DVD include the entire movie? Anyone? Bueller?

The DVD has a scene where Mona runs off after Jack crashes his car (and after he shot her in the arm.)
There is a later scene where after Jack shoots his girlfriend and runs off, Mona comes out, removes her arm from a bag (with ice packs), saws off the GF's arm, and leaves her arm in it's place before torching the body.

If there is a scene where Mona cuts HER OWN arm off, I have never seen it before.

I watched the film last night. I was on Showtime, a movie channel, so im not sure how much was taken out, but you did not see her take out her arm in icepackes. You just got a image of the girlfriends arm, and Mona laying her arm next to it (I wasn't even sure she had cut of her arm before came there, or if she did it afterwards).

And I'm glad to hear that this scene was cut, becouse it looked horrible in the verson i saw.

The - With? Or, without? - sex scene is included on the DVD I purchased from Amazon about a month ago. Also included on this DVD was the replacing of the girlfriend's arm with Mona's arm for identification purposes. (Widescreen Edition / Not Director's Or Special Cut Or Anything.)
