It's Dario Argentos European cut

The original cut is 10 minutes longer, has less gore but more comedy/character development

I think there was an original Blu-ray version but maybe only an American release.

there's about 8 different versions of this film, many years back there was a rumour Sam Raimi was working on assembling all the pieces into one definitive cut; it never happened. the original screenplay is interesting, i keep hearing conflicting stories as to whether or not the original downer ending was actually filmed or not.

I had an uncut version on DVD that I bought in the UK (HMV I think) This had the 139 minute runtime and was a very good version of the film.
Apparently there's an Extended Mall Hours cut of 155mins which combines the main 3 cuts but this was only found on file sharing sites.
I saw an uncut extended version on Amazon but they wanted £75 or something stupid for it. If you find one, let me know please :)
