OVERALL: Draw
The 2022 US/Canada Shout! Factory Collector's Edition has the lengthiest extras and all four different versions of the film, each with lossless audio. These include:
- 4K transfers of the US Theatrical Version and the International Cut; almost all other BDs have a much older, less-detailed transfer.
- The best available transfer of the Director's cut; all others have been transferred too darkly, obscuring detail.
The German Ultimate Edition contains decent extras and three versions of the film in HD, including the 4K transfer of the International cut.
The Japanese Final Edition has a good selection of extras, three versions of the film in HD, plus an exclusive commentary track.
Initial copies of the 2015 US/Canada Collector's Edition set had two faulty discs:
- US theatrical cut: missing 2 seconds at 27:50 (just before windmill, Ash jumping over crumbling stone wall).
- International cut: missing 3 seconds at 30:15 (in windmill, Ash threatening tiny Ash with a small pitchfork). Audio continues as normal, so is unsynchronised for a short time.
Corrected discs have "V2" added to catalogue number on outer edge of disc's label side:
- US Theatrical cut: BD 16027-V2
- International cut: BD 16399-V2
An extra wrinkle: the first 600 corrected US Theatrical cut discs are missing the "V2" notation. They can instead be identified by "2" added to the matrix number near the hub's non-label side: BVDL-1233260A1 2
Email customer service at Shout! Factory for free replacements.
There are four different versions of the film, with each having exclusive footage:
- US theatrical cut (81 mins) – with studio-mandated, reshot 'happy' ending, against director's wishes
- International theatrical cut (89 mins) – 'happy' ending
- TV cut (93 mins) – 'happy' ending; SD only, 1.33:1 aspect ratio
- Director's cut (96 mins) – restores original 'downbeat' ending
