Day of the Dead

(UK DVD)

George A Romero

1985

102 mins

This is not one of the best DVD's you'll ever see, that's for sure. It's fullscreen and has zero extras, but it still stands up as a must have for horror fans as this is the totally uncut edition in the best quality I've seen. Being fullscreen isn't a problem either as I'm sure I read somewhere that it was never supposed to be widescreen, either way this is a must have as it contains extra gore scenes not in the older video release, the new video release with a similar cover is also uncut.

Extra Gore

I think I noticed three scenes that have been lengthened in this release, they are.

1. When the soldiers arm is cut off with the machete it takes longer and is more of a struggle to remove than earlier thought.

2.The final death scenes of the soldiers are longer in a few instances which will become obvious to anyone who has only seen the censored version.
