European cut of "Dawn of the Dead"
I was wondering if any of You had the European cut of "Dawn of the Dead"?
does it offer anything more than the version released in the United States? |
There is a 3 movie collection 'boxset' which offers all three versions of Dawn of the Dead. It's rather fair priced, so you might give that a try. if there was no difference, I'm sure they would have bothered including it. :)

edited down version of the original (removing some of the humour) with different music

Dario Argento is responsible for doing the "Dawn Of The Dead" euro-cut, although it's titled "Zombi, Dawn Of The Dead". I think I might pick that one up. Argento doesn't sound like the kinda guy to remove the gore and violence. The only thing I understand that's different about it, some scenes have been shortened to pick the pace a little, remove the cheesy humor and 'goblin music' is used to replace the original corny mall music.

basically it played up the racial ineqaulities present in life. |
You also lose the best glop effect in the movie, the helicopter decapitation scene. stick with the US cut or the directors cut

Why would Argento cut that part out? Maybe he thought it was too comical? I saw that part as being kick-ass. :) What about the ending? Does Aregento show Romero's ending as they're flying off or does it show the alternate scene where that black guy is getting eaten and the zombies coming after the girl and she jumps into the helicopter's blades to kill herself before they get to her? At least that's what I heard about the alternate ending.
