Oddly enough, the American version of Shaun is cut, it's the US theatrical version. I was talking with my girlfriend today, she's studying in the UK and she saw Shaun over there. She quoted a line where Shaun's roommate talks about things he did in college he wouldn't do today, dressing as Frankenfurter, drinking snakebite, having sex with a fat girl. That was in the UK cut, but is only in the deleted scenes on the DVD.

Unless you mean it's on the deleted scenes portion of the UK dvd? I'd be surprised there wasn't some screaming from the UK fans if that were the case.

My girlfriend has only seen it in the theaters in the UK, never on DVD. She hasn't seen the special features, but she was quoting that line.
It's in the deleted scenes of the US cut. I'm suppossed to interview Simon Pegg this week, I'll ask him about it.

this sucks. I would've waited to buy DotD Unrated (2004) if I knew that this was gonna be in a 2-Pack with Shaun of the Dead.
You win some, you lose some.
Oh wells, since this is an Universal title, I'll just buy it used since there's no insert neways.

I saw it in the cinemas in the UK as well and that line was not in it, but that was during the general release.
So the US Theatrical version is not cut.

Would be awesome if it was the original Dawn of the Dead. I'll probably still pick this up though, as I don't have Shaun yet, and I've yet to see Dawn 2004 yet.

I own the UK DVD and that line is only in the Special features in the cut scenes, if this is true then the DVD was cut...
