It contains a brief introduction by Grau, an interview afterward, a trailer (promoting "Don't Open the Window"), radio spots, and a still gallery. Naturally, being VHS there's no commentary track but he covers a lot in the interview.

Rumor has it, that there is a more complete version available where:
***SPOILER BELOW***

The old lady zombie is shown to actually pluck out the cop's eye and pop it in her mouth.
Right now, the only "full" edit of that scene is the reach down to the eye, but not the actual pluck or eating of the eye.
Jorge Grau remembers shooting that scene, but does not know if it even made it into the final film at all. He can't remember.
I think it must have been shot, because you see the reach and there is an abrupt edit to George and the girl cringing in disgust as they watch the action. There's a jump in the music.
So right now, this version is the complete version. It is
uncut but not
complete to the best of any sources available.
There seems to be some debate whether the eyeball pluck was even shot, but it is difficult because of the director's bad memory on the subject.
