Notes[]
- Later VHS releases feature a heavily edited version of the dub. Most notably, the dialogue is toned down ("stupid" becomes "silly"), and all the death scenes removed.
- These cuts are quite noticeable as it leaves several jump cuts in the soundtrack. The retakes in the dialogue are pretty noticeable as well, as the music abruptly stops when they occur.
- Vuk is renamed Vic in the dub, likely due to the original name sounding dangerously close to the F word.
