Isn't there a Chinese/Hong Kong DVD out there?

did a bit of research and it looks like there was a widescreen UNCUT VHS and a bootleg (DVD) taken from a slightly cut Hong Kong LD.

So yeah, maybe if someone could work on a custom using the LD + add the cut footage from the VHS? Unless there is more missing from the film that I don't know about from another version somewhere?

 Yes there is a old mainland version floating around. I have it on VHS & burned to disk. I am Norway now but can look for it when I return to the US. Unless you are certain that is the pirate verson? It is fairly crisp & clear from what I remember ( but I have not watched it for years). Is not the mainland version's ending different than the HK one too ?? :)

wow! impressive to see that LD!

Is it widescreen? If yes do you know the aspect ratio?

I've got a version I recorded from TV years ago on VHS, it has remastered subs, can't remember what the quality is like tho.

I've never heard of any dub version but I could be wrong.

Could any of you guys post screenshots of the versions you have to compare?

Only problem is I don't have a vhs player at this house. Will try and sort something out tho.

There is a DVD-r available on Cinemageddon. Here are a few screenshots of that rip. It's from the UK uncut VHS apparently.






Hungry, is the LD sharper than this?
Clone, is your VHS wider and in better shape?
