I can't speak to "Pink Flamingos" or "Evil Dead," but I never was happy with Kevin Smith's feeling that "Clerks" looked fine at 1.85 when originally shot in 16mm full frame. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn't. You can at least see the original framing on Disc 2 of the 10th anniversary disc. They also ran into a proper framing issue with "Chasing Amy" for the reasons you state - the work was done by someone at a studio who didn't know or care about the way it was supposed to be.
