I just bought the Director's Cut on Blu-ray.

I'll post a review later.

Just saw this.

It was fun. One part I didn't get was

Spoiler:
why the ghouls didn't die in the boxes, if it wss established "steam eaters" need to eat of waste away.

I mean, maybe they have different rules then the bad guys, but they were eating steam, so implies they need to eat too..

Spoiler:
Danny was able to capture and hold the ghosts in his mental prison boxes because they were weak and malnourished, per se, and were kept in a dormant state.

When Danny released them, they killed Rose the Hat and were able to possess him.

I just figured they operated under a different set of rules.
Spoiler:
They were spirits, so couldn’t die for lack of steam, while the Steamers were alive and sustained themselves via steam. The spirits were normal, if ****ed up ppl in life yeah? Not steamers?

is this really worth a watch

only YOU can decide.

He stressed Shelley Duvall so much that she had clumps of hair fall out, a clock work orange he knows Malcolm McDowell hates snakes so even though the character didn’t have a snake in the book he added one to the film for that reason

Yes, but Shelley Duvall later stated she was thankful for what she was put through or else it "wouldn't have come out as good as it did".

She even went as far as to say she still respected him as a person and a director.

Classic Stockholm syndrome on her part. 😛

I personally watched the film a few weeks ago. I thought it was good and I'd give it a 8

I still give it a solid 8.

Definitely worth a watch.

Because they're already dead and not undead.

Doesn't really imply that they need to eat, just that they can/do.

This was a great movie!
