GENERAL NOTES:
The film exists in a number of cuts based on local censorship; however, the three principle versions are:
- the Italian version (~84 minutes at 24fps/~81 minutes at 25fps);
- the English export version (~88 minutes at 24fps/~85 minute at 25fps) including a five minute scene in which Lori falls into a pit and Peter fights off a pair of cannibals who find her (this scene has been reinserted into some transfers of the Italian version and remains in English since it was never dubbed into Italian);
- the U.S. "Doctor Butcher M.D." version (~82 minutes at 24fps/~79 minutes at 25fps) which trims several expository sequences, replaces the Italian score with an electronic one by Walter Sear, a shortened credits sequence, and adds zombie footage from the unfinished New York anthology film "Tales That Will Tear Your Heart Out" to the opening.
