I've been waiting for a longer cut of this movie. While the new cut might not be Clive's original vision still - which is said to be about 2 1/2 hours, this new one clocks in at 2:20, adding 40 minutes to the original length. Close enough as far as I'm concerned. I'll be definitely buying this on blu ray. I've always had a fascination with late 80s-early 90s fantasy. They always used heavy lighting effects, like bloom was used about a gen and a half ago in videogames, and to similar effect. It made the worlds feel more fantastical and helped hide FX that haven't progressed to the point that we are now. It releases on the 28th, think I might look for it at the local dept stores so that I have it to watch Halloween night. Hmmm, full Clive Barker marathon, sounds fun.
