I think which ruined tis movie for me was how long I had to wait to get it, it wasn't released in Region 2 for a long long time, I did end up opting getting the Region 1 disc which took 2 weeks to get shipped.
I must admit that this movie was the most weirdest to understand and I dont usually get confused with movies.
I will heed your advice and look up the producers cut dude, its always nice to get put on the right track by other movie lovers. cheers
