Television version, supervised by director Alex Cox, features alternate footage to the theatrical release.
The dubbed dialogue of the TV version (e.g. "melon farmer" as an insult) has achieved cult status in its own right.
There is a scene included in the television version where Bud destroys a telephone booth with a bat.
The 'current' UK video version (released by Universal) has masked the camera tracks visible in the scene leading up to the store robbery. These tracks WERE visible in the CIC video version (released in the mid-80s).
The UK video version (both Universal and CIC) misses out a section where 'Asimov' speaks to Kevin at the gas station. Instead it just cuts from him getting out of the car, to him making a rather odd sighing noise and wandering off.
