You presume wrong - I own the extras packed 2 disc R1 set with the full length 'Rehersal Version' of the film on disc 2 . . .

Yeah. Here's what you get...

The first disc will contain the following extras: Audio commentary by Winter and Stern, A conversation with co-writer Tim Burns, Deleted scenes, Hijinx in Freekland, a collection of behind-the-scenes footage, Freaked art gallery, Theatrical trailer, DVD-ROM original screenplay

The second disc will include:

• Freaked: The Reehersel Version, a full-length cast rehearsal of the film, including Keanu Reeves sans Dog Boy makeup, with scenes and dialogue that never made it into the final film.

• There Are No Weirdos Here, early script readings of selected scenes, featuring actors Winter, Megan Ward, Michael Stoyanov, Derek McGrath, Lee Arenberg and John Hawkes.

• It’s the Troll, terrifying footage of young actor Alex Zuckerman developing the character of Stuey Gluck.

• Under Construkshen, behind-the-scenes video showing the creation of the Freak Land set.

• Behold…The Beast Boy, footage of Winter’s makeup transformation into a hideous mutant freak.

• Two short films by Winter and Stern, SQUEAL OF DEATH and THE NYU SIGHT AND SOUND PROJECT.

The set will also come with a "freakish" booklet containing liner notes and photos.

The UK disc is barebones so it was a no-brainer and yes, the scenes that are cut into the international release make up the deleted scenes here . . .

Yeah I read the review of the film on cineoutsider.com
some time ago
the theatrical one on disc 1 is cut

the rehearsal version is of course a different one altogether!
the uk is the uncut so it states elsewhere
so many versions and reviews..................

I bought this one on impulse, not knowing what it was but liking the description. It's a great movie!
