Walking Dead Season Region NTSCWalking the Dead Season 1 is a 2010 US horror TV by Frank Darabont. See IMDb

It seems that the UK DVD/Blu-ray release is a pre-cut version of the series shown in its entirety on US TV. The BBFC did not impose any further cuts for a 15 rating.

Saying that the pilot episode 1 is shown in its entirety rather than an (uncontentiously) shortened version shown on US TV.

But other episodes were cut for violence

  • Episode 2: 9s of cuts to Rick dismembering a corpse with an axe and then delving around in its innards. See pictorial cuts details from movie-censorship.com.
  • Episode 4: Missing two explicit and gory zombie bites in the scene where the camp is attacked near the end. One of these – where a young woman is bitten in the throat, with screams and gushing blood.
  • Episode 5: 12s of cuts to Carol twice driving a pickaxe into the head of her dead husband. See pictorial cuts details from movie-censorship.com
