The part where they sing on Top of Old Smokey all covered in blood.


I like this part cause it reminds me of when I was about the same age as the protagonists and sang that song with my friends at school. I was told by a friend recently that when he watched it on TV a few years ago they edited out that part. That song is politically incorrect by today's standards but back in the mid 90s when I was in 2nd and 3rd grade, my friends and I always sang that song.

It's not racist, they probably just removed it due to the blood reference.

I didn't mean it was racist. Just that it's inappropriate because of how common school shootings are now. I doubt a kid could sing it at school without getting in trouble in today's world. Like I said I sang it in grade school in the mid 90s.

I didn't think of that. The US version removed the bad guys shooting at the clerk. I'm glad they did, when I saw the international version with this I thought "what the hell? They're not just goof balls, they're deranged."
