Just been working my way through this thread, and wanted to ressurect the subject of Zombie Flesh Eaters as someone stated they would love an uncut UK DVD of this with the UK title "Zombie Flesh-Eaters" on the front.
Well for those with long memories, can anyone remember back in the early-mid 90s, Vipco were re-releasing all their old back catalogue and getting heavily censored by the BBFC, so they started releasing the uncut versions of their films in Denmark. Those who used to attend video fairs during this time may remember seeing stalls selling Vipco videos displaying UK sleeves, but with stickers saying "Strong Uncut Version" stuck in the corner to denote them from their cut English counterparts.
Anyway, in the late 90s when Vipco started to make the move into DVD, as I recall correctly, they released an uncut DVD of Zombie Flesh Eaters in Denmark with the original UK artwork for the sleeve and containing the original theatrcial trailer as an extra.
Sadly though, this was only a limited release as I think they got into rights issues and shortly afterwards they stopped production of their uncut Danish releases.
Wish I could get a copy of this one.
