For those that have an original copy on VHS


....Did you notice that when West uses that saw to drill through the back of the zombie you can see that it's only the top half of the body? I haven't seen this on DVD yet but I imagine they fixed that up.

That's because the VHS was full screen allowing the audience to see the goof. It was framed and shot for a wide screen viewing so when seen in theaters or the DVD it's cut out of the frame, which it's suppose to be.

I had the original un-rated version on Vestron Video with the cardboard slipcase and remember the bonesaw through the chest scene you describe.The film looks much better with the dodgy FX covered up by black bars in the widescreen Elite/Anchor Bay DVD editions.
