The US release for the extras.
Director/screenwriter Paul Schrader had the film taken away from him in post-production. In 2017, he released an alternate cut that titled "Dark" that ran 75 minutes. Speaking of the newly created version online, Schrader said, "[The movie] was filmed in 2013 and released in 2014 under the title "Dying of the Light". The film was taken from me after the first director's cut, re-edited, scored and mixed without my input. I offered to revisit the film, cut and mix a new version at my own expense but was denied permission by the producers. This cut was created using workprint DVDs. I had no access to the original hi-res footage and unmixed sound. I used those limitations to my advantage when creating this new film. I was working toward a more aggressive editing style when "Dying of the Light" was taken away from me. "Dark" represents the direction I was hoping to go." The "Dark" cut has not been officially released on a home video format as of yet. -
