<p dir="auto">How much is known about the original script for this movie?<br />
Apparently like Day Of The Dead, the original script was far too ambitious for its budget.  So, its scope had to be scaled back drastically.<br />
About all I know of the original script is that it was apparently supposed to end with a battle between two armies of zombies, one amassed by the industrialized nations and one made up of the Third World victims.<br />
I just can't imagine this movie ending without its filmed finale.  One of the things I really liked about it was its rather creative explanation for the zombies.  It seems that this ending might not have originally been in the script.</p>

<p dir="auto">I would like to read that script myself. I wonder if any copies exist?<br />
I doubt if the Italians kept anything leftover from a film, but it would be nice to actually see that missing footage.</p>

<p dir="auto">I read an interview with Claudio Fragrasso about this movie in the book Eaten Alive.  It provided some insight into the original ideas for the movie.<br />
He also said he directed all the gore scenes in the movie.  He said that Bruno Mattei hated to direct gore scenes.<br />
Lastly, he said the original cut of the film was apparently far more gory and violent than what ended up on screen.  He said there was a lot of footage left on the cutting room floor.  This might explain why the movie was under running and needed padding with the documentary footage.  That a lot of filmed footage was taken out from the final product.  While the film does have some violent scenes in it, it is actually a little low on the gore front for an Italian zombie movie.</p>
