John - great vid as always - fair play to Dave! he's some man - Day of dead -That Cover (UK) always loved it - kept the Arrow window box blu-ray just for that. memories!!

I have the pre cert Frankenstein on vipco John . Dracula and Frankenstein were also released on another pre cert label video gems that were even rarer, Dracula was fully uncut on vipco ( I borrowed it off a mate in the early 90s)he had absolutely everything pre cert 1000s😮. Frankenstein though banned as a nasty on vipco was slightly cut by about 5 secs🤷‍♂️blood being rubbed on breasts. That ex rental day of the dead was indeed cut 2 scenes as I remember, a finger biting off scene and the machete amputation by a couple of frames🙄. I still have a Dutch vhs ex rental .

You probably know but vhs was sp lp and ep 1hr was 2hrs in lp mode so you can guess ep was longer so that film was probably on 30mins of actual tape lol cost cutting again in the later years

Great video John 😀🍿🎸🎶 I’m still yet to watch ‘Dawn Of The Dead’ 😱🧟‍♂️ ‘Train To Busan’ is a great time of a Zombie film 🚊 Lovely VHS additions of ‘Dawn’ & ‘Day Of The Dead’; ‘Zombie Flesheaters’ aswell 👌 My fav Beatles album is ‘Rubber Soul’; nice additions there man; I need to get some Records played on the Turntable again 😀👌

Hi John, nice selection. The big box Day of the Dead is cut, The first UK uncut version was the sell through release from Arrow!! One of their early releases!

E.P is extended play. Some of the budget American tapes would use that in order to save having to use more expensive longer tapes. Zombie Flesh Eaters was still cut on that format, they did Dutch strong uncut releases but a lot of the postcert tapes they put out in the 90s still suffered from the bbfc demanding cuts on films that had been prosecuted.

I have both the vipco Blood and Flesh as well as the video gems versions. The vipco Frankenstein was slightly cut but the video gems one is uncut

I hate to say this Paul, but your copy of Flesh-Eaters (Widescreen), vhs of Day Of The Dead, and pre-cert of Dracula are all cut to varying degrees. I have in my possession our Australian vhs of Dracula and Day Of The Dead, and amazingly they are fully Uncut. Our original vhs / betamax releases of Flesh-Eaters were shockingly cut though (5 x worse than your cinema version).

Hi John, what a lovely gesture to send you those gifts, Revolver is my favourite Beatles album, Great Video mate 👍🏻

Great collection mate 😮 love the old school VHS I'm so old I even remember Betamax 😂

Real blasts from the past. Excellent condition.

Lucky guy John receiving that lot.

If I remember rightly, that widescreen VHS of ZFE is described as 'the uncut cinema version' on the back of the sleeve. Naughty, Vipco!

I saw liar of the white worm on TV many,many years ago.

Hi John

Wow that Dawn of the Dead VHS looks superb.. and it's Anchor Bay as well lol

What an incredible guy Dave is thos VHS tapes really take me back😎

Hi John, awesome gifts. This is quite spooky but I’m literally watching Blood for Dracula right now on Blu Ray and I also watched Flesh for Frankenstein on Blu Ray yesterday, I picked them both up from HMV last week

I just need the Beatles early vinyl albums now. 👍❤️🎸🥁🎸🎸

I like that Dawn Of The Dead release goes for crazy money now
