Rolli...an Rollin's association with this film?<br /><br />Rollin reportedly filmed some additonal zombie sequences for an alternate version produced by Eurocine. These scenes pretty much destroy the mood of the original film.Robert Monellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06309327472702575547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30886366.post-55483117687484911092010-10-15T16:06:29.966-04:002010-10-15T16:06:29.966-04:00A favorite of mine, too.

VIRGIN was quite a different viewing experience (although it was the Wizard tape of the zombie version).Eric Cotenashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17329284538465028566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30886366.post-55786993033596083132010-10-15T15:47:44.916-04:002010-10-15T15:47:44.916-04:00A favorite of mine too!

Just the plain old one. And, funny, I prefer my grey market VHS subtitled version. It's the version I have watched the most and the voices seem the most natural. I love this movie.Douglas A.
