• Canadian version released by Media Home Entertainment in 1986 is missing most or all of the gore. The editing was done very sloppily: the removal of scenes of zombies' brains being blown out causes the sound effects to be cut as well, so zombies are shot without the noise of gunfire.

• The film was released in Australia on the Roadshow Home Video label, and is the complete, uncut version.

• On the 2003 Anchor Bay, 2-disc, Region 1 release some of Steel's (Gary Klar) dialogue has been overdubbed.

The voice used is not Gary Klar's and sounds nothing like him.
