I quite enjoyed DOTD 2004, rented it last week, the original is the best though, its 5.99 off Amazon, really captures the desparation though I have to say the new one was a fair stab at it, bit to competent thought, not nearly crap enough and the zombies move to quick.

Red Dwarf V, is that the one with the new woman in the red car suit, she was fit but ruined the show.

Not all DC's in the UK are uncut. Sometimes the Director makes changes for DVD because he can.

Does it? I cant see that clearly on this screen, but it does look very similar to the re-released 1978 version (new cover), which Ive been meaning to get. Id prefer the original cover that Sith shows but I havent seen it anywhere.

The cover I show is from the USA Ultimate Version of the 1978 edition. It can be found on dvdboxoffice. Or http://www.playusa.com/playusa.asp?p...1&title=184265

The 2004 DC version seems to be a unique cover wich does have Ving.

Woolworths BigW have a 'restored' version of the original so thats the one Im going for; it might be a sh*te restoration though. I got 'The Good the Bad and the Ugly' a while ago which is supposed to be restored; my **** it is, its covered in bits and theres a big hair on one shot.....

Get the BMG re-release that has Un-Cut on the front 'cos it is uncut. Or get the ultimate edition 'cos it has all the versions.

i watched the new DOTD last night - not a patch on the origional.

Why is it in every Zombie film made the dead walk slowly and in this new 1 they run faster than when they were alive?
Loved the bit with the guy on the rooftop shooting the Zombies in the head

Bought the '78 original and the directors cut of the '04 version yesterday and I definately prefer the original. I was bound to be disappointed; I hoped Ving would be plating Marcellus Wallace with the undead...

Mine is 127 minutes long; hows that compare with the versions that youve mentioned?
