Zack Snyder’s Dawn of the Dead – Which Unedited Version Is Scream Factory Releasing?
When Zack Snyder’s remake of Dawn of the Dead was released on home video, it did so in both rated and unrated fashion. The only problem? The domestic unrated version was still missing the nudity found in the international German release.
The scene comes at 0:09:40 into the film’s runtime, which finds Ana (Sarah Polley) driving through the chaos when a bloodied and topless woman appears. In the U.S. release her extremities are covered by adding in some CG blood to Ana’s windshield. In the German version (also released by Universal) everything is all hanging out.

Yes, this is a somewhat trivial edit, but for those of you who want your “unedited” horror truly unedited, it’s a real sticking point.
This morning Scream Factory announced they’d be releasing Syder’s Dawn of the Dead in a collector’s edition Blu-ray that’s home to both rated and unrated versions. But which unrated version? We reached out the SF’s Cliff Macmillan to find out.
“We are looking into it,” Macmillan told us. “If we can include it, we will.”
Stay tuned for the official word as soon as we get it.
