All of a sudden the lost footage has been found and restored. I think it's a insult to his memory. Any other thoughts about it? |

I'm sure he would have been happy it finally got some kind of release. |
I have the Scream Factory release, but I've only given the disc a quick spin so far. I have seen people say they still prefer the theatrical version, but that could be because original negative with the director's cut footage couldn't be found and it's been reconstructed from a full screen vhs tape they managed to get, which would take you out of the film with the sudden drop of quality and aspect ratio.
