Wanted to see if this topic warranted further discussion. According to Rob Zombie, roughly 20 minutes of footage was cut from the movie and is now considered lost.
“I don’t think it ever will [be released], because I don’t think anyone knows where any of it is, truthfully,” said Zombie. “Even when they put together the DVD, which was 13 years ago, we couldn’t find anything because they had shot two hundred interviews in the time since the shoot. We had behind-the-scenes stuff, make-up tests, all these different things, and nobody could find it. It was all lost. That’s why I think whatever exists is all that’s going to ever exist.”
However, I've found a source that claims that the Unrated Cut contained almost 40 minutes of lost footage. Their source now leads to a dead link that hasn't been archived by the wayback machine, so I can't vouch for its credibility.
Jeanne Carmen's character was completely cut from the film, as well as scenes that contained more graphic deaths.
