Apple TV's "Obsession" unrated cut sparks confusion among viewers

The film "Obsession" has been released for streaming and purchase, with confusion arising over different versions available on platforms like Apple TV and Amazon Prime Video. While Apple TV lists an "unrated" version, Amazon offers the R-rated theatrical cut, and it remains unclear if the "unrated" version on Apple TV actually contains the more brutal or sexual content typically found in such cuts, or if it's merely a labeling error. The rumored scene where a character's face is smashed in, which was reportedly cut for theatrical release, does not appear to be present or significantly different in the available streaming version, leading to speculation that the distinction may be a mix-up.
