I found this recently on an old unlabelled VHS of mine when I must have recorded the movie from TV back in the 90's. From the date it would appear to have been 1997. It was a short interview at the start of the first UK terrestrial screening of the uncut version of the movie. I obviously do not own the copyright of this off-air recording from UK public service broadcasting, I am sharing it for other fans to be able to see and enjoy this rare piece of footage.

This was the first time I ever saw the extended cut off the film. Thanks BBC2 🙂🙂. I bought the video not long after after watching a cut version for a few years prior.

Blame the studio and George's advancing age and inactivety it had took his shine off

7:02 - If only Land of the Dead had turned out as good as he made it sound here. Total legend, it's a shame he lost that spark.

I have to disagree. I think Land of the Dead is a new kind of threat. Yeah it’s not perfect but I can see where he his vision for Land. Very underrated but yeah I think Diary was his weakest and survival was just okay. But that’s just me

His advancing age was why he lost his spark 1978/1985 the man was at his peak. Then a 8 year lay off were he did nothing (1992/2000) wont have helped. Love and miss you George RIP

I’m pretty sure the budget for Land of the Dead was around $15-16 million which is chump change for the type of story he was trying to tell. I’m sure the movie suffered some because of it. I actually like the movie quite a bit…I think the only thing they could have improved upon were the actors.
