Wonder if this is a case where they can only release the R-rated version. Arrow got their material from Warner and they only appeared to have the so-called director's cut. I don't think Warner owns the first film in the US anymore, DVDs are OOP and it's not available digitally. I'm thinking Unearthed got the rights from the producer (who wouldn't work with Arrow) and they had access to the R-rated cut.

If Warner stills holds the material for the DC then at least the Arrow copy would be worth holding onto for the alternative version. A Nightbreed situation.

It does look like Warner still owns the sequel. C'mon Scream Factory, now's the time.
