‘Django Unchained’ to Open in China With Less Vivid Blood

Director Quentin Tarantino made what a Sony executive calls "slight adjustments" in the form of smaller splashes of duller-colored blood for the rollout in the country later this week.

Django Unchained will open in China in its full-length gory glory – but the vibrant hue and explosive splatter of the film's bloodshed will be slightly muted for Chinese cinemas, according to the film’s mainland Chinese distributors.
Speaking to Southern Metropolis Daily, Zhang Miao, director of Sony Pictures’ Chinese branch, said director Quentin Tarantino has “agreed on making slight adjustments to the film for different markets – and this adjustment for him is progress rather than a compromise.”
