I know this is off topic a bit but it’s another great instance of how editing makes all the difference.

I’m going to take on trying to locate and cobble together the most complete version of John Woo’s BULLET IN THE HEAD that I can muster.

I will be using the original “boardroom ending” and including the “car joust” ending as an alternate scene. I found the original ending to be much more effective.

I’ve been putting together a list of what the differences are here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullet_in_the_head

I never knew about this. Does anyone have access to these versions?

The Spanish version of “KISS Meets The Phantom of the Park” (usually known as “Attack of the Phantoms”) has totally different editing. Many various scenes/elements not in the US version (while many in the US version are not in the Spanish version). Among of the differences are:

• Devereaux’s Civil War robots are seen attacking the security guard’s office.
• Calvin and Devereaux have a discussion on the Magic Mountain monorail and continue it as they get off the ride.
• There are additional live shots of KISS, including some from overhead, including one where you can clearly see a cameraman on stage.
• KISS’ promotional videos from 1979, “I Was Made For Loving You” and “Sure Know Something,” from their “Dynasty” album, are inserted in the movie as live concert performances, despite the completely different costumes and staging from the previous shot before the songs begin.
• The entire movie uses different music, especially a lot of KISS solo album music, and even a little bit of an instrumental of KISS’ “Almost Human.”
• Paul Stanley shoots Sam’s remote control with his eye laser. In the US version, he simply takes it out of Sam’s skin with his hand.
• There are additional shots during most of the KISS fight scenes, as well as many quick scenes throughout the film. Just one example of many, the guy staring at Melissa at the snack bar wipes the table with his hand, while in the US version he does not.
• This version ends with a shot of Devereaux walking in the park (the scene after Calvin fired him) and then going into the credits which scroll, while the US version ends with KISS performing “God of Thunder.”

The English theatrical version of “KISS Meets The Phantom of the Park” (usually known as “Attack of the Phantoms”) has totally different editing. Many various scenes/elements not in the US version (while many in the US version are not in the Spanish or English theatrical versions). Among of the differences are:

• Devereaux’s Civil War robots are seen attacking the security guard’s office.
• Calvin and Devereaux have a discussion on the Magic Mountain monorail and continue it as they get off the ride.
• There are additional live shots of KISS, including some from overhead, including one where you can clearly see a cameraman on stage.
• The entire movie uses different music, especially a lot of KISS solo album music, and even a little bit of an instrumental of KISS’ “Almost Human.”
• Paul Stanley shoots Sam’s remote control with his eye laser. In the US version, he simply takes it out of Sam’s skin with his hand.
• There are additional shots during most of the KISS fight scenes, as well as many quick scenes throughout the film. Just one example of many, the guy staring at Melissa at the snack bar wipes the table with his hand, while in the US version he does not.
• This version ends with a shot of Devereaux walking in the park (the scene after Calvin fired him) and then going into the credits which scroll playing “Mr. Make believe” from Gene Simmon’s solo album, while the US version ends with KISS performing “God of Thunder.”
