"Seconds" is one of them (at 13:19 minute mark). Fortunately I saw the restored version, and the butchered stuff that ran back then may no longer even be around.

No point complaining about the AI narrator in this video, since those are ubiquitous in everything now. And at least the things sound more realistic than what they once did.

I must see those if I can track them down. Surprised they didn't ban "Invasion of The Body Snatchers". Well, censors are never very smart about metaphors...
