It's the same as the UK release. Did you know you can buy the UK Hitchcock Masterpiece set, which includes that version of Psycho for about $30? Price goes down at checkout.

I already own the Psycho and Rear Widow. I'm not a big fan of The Birds and the US copies of Psycho and Rear Widow are pretty damn good. Not sure this set is worth it to me.

It's the same release throughout Europe.

Hopefully Scream Factory will acquire the rights to this title in the future.

Is there something cut out of this film . I was reading somewhere that there are edits and there is a longer version but not on bluray ?

Why?

Universal's US release is well done and the UK release is completely well done. Are you just wanting it say Scream on the box? I don't understand the fascination with Scream. There is nothing else that could be added to this in terms of extras.

I think you meant Rear Window. Rear Widow is the notorious porn version, which even Hitch thought was in bad taste.

I for one wouldn't mind a scream edition so that it can sit next to my SF releases of 2-4. Would be nice to have them all with the same style artwork and such. I'm happy with the copy I have now tho which is in my Masterpiece collection.

Universal would never license Psycho to Scream

[Alfred E. Neumann]

Deserves a brand new 4k scan like the "Back to the Future" trilogy, the "Jurassic Park" trilogy and "Scarface".

Better than the BTTF trilogy hopefully! That looks kinda like crap with all that DNR.
