Halloween Rob Zombie Theatrical Version?

[rockds]

I found this on the Amazon Germany and wondered is it the Theatrical Version or Directors Cut.

I am basically looking for RZ Halloween Theatrical Edition on blu-ray.

I own this steelbook and it is definitely the theatrical cut.

Thanks for the info. Could you let us know if everything on the disc is region-free and if it contains English Audio & Subs? Lastly.. how easy is it to navigate around menu's? Thanks, I'm really looking to get this one asap.

I own it, too, but as a PS3 owner, I can only confirm that the bonus features are in PAL format, so they won't play for you in the U.S. on that system. I don't recall about the subs (I'm not at home now) except to say that there are two instances where forced German subtitles pop up for a few short seconds to indicate a location (like "Smith's Grove Sanitarium"); otherwise, no forced subs. A master audio English track is present. I have no regrets about the purchase--looks great, sounds great, the two very momentary forced German subs are my only slight inconvenience.

This German BD is the only theatrical version of Halloween found on Blu-ray in the world.

Thanks for the info guys! Don't mind the extras being in PAL, but the forced subs may be a deal breaker for me....

Really??? It's just twice for a matter of seconds...

Yeah.. I can wait for an eventual release that doesn't have the burned in subs. Things like that just bug me...

BTW... does anyone know if the forced German subs are actually a subtitle stream or if it's "burned" into the movie?

Subtitle stream, but I know of no way to disable it when you've selected the English audio track.

I have a BD burner. If I buy this disc, I can strip that sub out and burn it back to a BD-R. How are the menu's? Easy to navigate?

[Filmmaker]

Exceedingly easy, yes. Just four or five options in a column, all in German language--just click on 'em and see where they take you.

There's a Japanese release that has the theatrical cut.

Sorry to ressurect an old thread but with the new US box now out, I'm trying to work out where best to source the things 'missing':

I take it this is the non-steelbook theatrical blu:

http://www.amazon.de/Halloween-Blu-r...dp/B002YY04PG/

The package shot says 2 discs, but the information says 1. Is the information wrong or is the image from a different release?

Why not just get this?

from what I gathered all you will need is this BD, the one I linked to, and the 2 Divimax DVD's for parts 4 & 5, Halloween 25 Years of Terror and the Terror in the Isles BD in the 30th Anniversary Edition of HII.

I've already got the theatrical cut of II from the UK, and figured the German Theatrical Cut of I would be better as both were'nt squeezed on the same disc, although I can't see any opionions one way or another on this.

That's what I thought - no one appears to have said whether the french releases of 6,H20 and Ressurection have better transfers than the new set.
