Troy - I appreciate you trying to help out, but I don't think you understood what I was saying. I was asking if anyone has actually seen the early workprint - the rough cut that is supposedly 2 hours long. Obviously it includes something over the 96 min director's cut. If you were to take the 4 deleted scenes from the workprint which are featured on Anchor Bay's or MGM's special editions in the deleted scenes section and edited them into the 96 min director's cut, then all you come up with is a movie that is roughly 104 min long - about 16 minutes shy of 2 hours. That includes all of those deleted scenes - the original opening with no S-Mart footage at all, the Ash and Arthur confrontation, the original windmill sequence (which is much longer than the version the SciFi Channel shows - the rough-cut version has extra stuff like more shots of Ash wondering around outside the windmill at night), and Ash recruiting Henry the Red. I believe that all of that is footage from that 2-hour rough cut.

So let's recap -

The Director's Cut - 96 min
Director's Cut extended with the 4 deleted scenes from the rough cut - 104 min
The Rough-Cut - supposedly 120 min

So all I'm saying is that I wonder what kind of extra footage was in the rough cut. I'm pretty sure it was just a bunch of pointless shots - like the extra shots of Ash wondering around the woods outside the windmill that aren't featured in the TV cut of the film - but just maybe there's something significant. I'm a huge fan of this movie, and I wish I could see every scrap of footage shot for it and include it on my DVD - I know that isn't possible, but wouldn't that be great? Anyways - I doubt anyone here has seen that rough cut, but I figured why not ask just in case?
