I think it's a brilliant example of the different ways in which a film can be marketed.

At least it doesn't have the awful US title of Hell of the Living Dead, almost as bad as Braindead being called Dead Alive! :nod:

most (me) would prefer the Zombie Creeping Flesh title for video nasty/nostalgia reasons. however, the original title is Virus.

Same, it's the title I remember from the early 90's :nod:

Is Zombie Creeping Flesh the same as BU's transfer, with jump cuts, etc.?

i've not seen the BU but given its from the original negative i can't see how it can be improved except by a better scan? but that's not going to remove jump cuts.

on another subject Touch of Death is not a very good movie but 88 have treated it to a spiffy upgrade. looks like they are starting to get that colour correction thing right these days judging by the screenshots in this review.
Touch of Death

BU's had something like frames missing from every cut, and as a result made the movie weird and sync out or something. Can't remember exactly but definitely remember reading about it

Can't say I noticed anything wrong with it myself, apart from being a shite film :lol:
