I think that's the real reason why people hate Vipco so much.

This is what it said on the back cover:

'Zombie Flesh Eaters' has been listed as a banned video and been unavailable since 1984. This is the original cinema version and has NOT been cut by the British Board of Film Classification for home video use. It has now been passed as suitable for persons over the age of eighteen. However, some may still consider the content to be unsuitable viewing material, and find scenes to be disturbing or offensive. IF IN DOUBT, DO NOT VIEW
