Anyone takers on this one??

I cherished my VHS directors cut of this film until i found out this cut had been torn to shreds aswell by the editors.

Possible, I have a week off next week and was hoping to continue with my other project (MCOG) but I'll dump all the vobs from the 3 versions into Vegas and see how many differences there are. the argento cut has different audio cues also but it still may be possible to hack something together. I have got the drop cue bootleg CD aswell as the offical and unreleased CD's which may help..
I recently did a PAL Day of the Dead which featured the Anchor Bay/new Arrow transfer and 6 audio tracks, the original theatrical mix (with the 6 edits reinstated from the first arrow release) in DD2.0 the so called TV mix in DD2.0 and DD5.1 plus all three known audio commentaries. needs menu's adding etc..

-Edit-

Which company released this german version? is it the XT or Astro one?

Isn't the issue with re-creating the German cut, though, that there were alternate takes used in that cut that weren't used anywhere else?

I used to be very active on this forum. I’m not really anymore. Sometimes, people still want to get in touch with me about something, and that is great! If that describes you, please email me at [my username]ATgmailDOTcom.

Hi everybody. You’re all awesome. Keep up the good work.

Yes there were a number of them.

A guy here claims to be doing just this. He says he's about 50mins into the movie and that was back in April. The tougher edits will be later in the movie when everything gets real chaotic and the musical queues differ vastly so I'm not surprised he's not finished yet.
