version three is in the works with an insane amount of fixes and changes for the better. I'm currently in the process of converting this PAL version of the movie to NTSC in order to remove the 104% pitch speed found in the PAL version. What this means is the movie will run the intended length now, sounds will sound even more natural. The edit will run for roughly 9 minutes longer than the last versions due to this change. I have to go back and re-edit everything which is the bad news but it's on the way. Here is a little look at some of the edits in version 3 streamable.com/wsle12

That's a big file. I don't have a Mega account and the download stops about halfway. Any chance of a smaller version?

There is the alternate download on google drive in the download section, you should be able to stream it from there. I'm working on the 1080p edit now which should be out in a week or so depending on how long it takes if you don't mind waiting til then for better quality. The file size is large thanks to Sony Vegas, but it didn't really get that much larger from the default value of 7.8GB for the DVD file. It's an issue, I'm thinking of possibly uploading it on Youtube as an unlisted video too. streamable.com/2lywyi 1080 edit sample here, good news is that the footage is 30 frames per second compared to the DVD which is 24.97 frames per second. It looks a lot better.

streamable.com/vzq2i0I tried upscaling the directors cut footage as best possible for this scene and added in Eileens original walking backwards. it's quite different but the quality.... this is the footage I upscaled lol, I don't think there is any other source of this available other than the video on youtube For how shit the quality is here I think the ai upscale did quite well all things considered

I'm finished now....1080p edit version #4 is finally complete. Full list of changes is updated with version #4 changes. The edit will be uploaded and available to download within the next 12 hours, download links will be updated on the main post here. All earlier versions of the film will be removed as this last version has additional fixes and even more unused scenes added. Time to submit this to Fanedit.org ... wish me luck! I hope the people following the project enjoy the final edit. It's been a hell of a job for me. If anyone digs this post up years later and watches this edit I want to say thank you in advance. Cheers guys. if you ever need to contact me directly feel free to add me on Discord - Paxtn#8236

One of the cringe moments in that film. Couldn't even get the quote right. That's supposed to be Rustin Parr? There is a Halloween mask with that guy's face on it from BoS. I've seen it for sale. Rustin Parr mask. Nope.

Rustin Parr mask. Nope. Perhaps it was a delusion of Kim's based on her own knowledge of Rustin Parr's history, which could explain why the quote wasn't so right. Though it's more than likely just the film getting it wrong..

Hello.
You did a really good job creating a Deluxe Edition of a hybrid studio cut and unreleased Director's Cut.
There are a few technical errors remaining and a few questionable add-ins.
I recommend getting rid of the hanging Tristen moving from back to front with a missed frame in between. She was swinging in a circle to begin with anyway.. and cut the footage overlapped with credits over Jeff's beginning interrogation at the end of the film. It works out fine when cut properly.
The credits intro is stellar with Type O (not Sinatra) and the ending credits and after credits are also stellar. The added footage of Stephen speaking of the Coffin Rock massacre is stellar. The footage over Erica speaking of being touched by a witch is stellar. But that same footage isn't needed between the moment Jeff tells Stephen that he isn't going anywhere and the moment Kim bites into the owl (honestly, too much teaser footage becomes redundant)
The Treacle footage in the hospital needs a little work. And the owl through the window needs the pointers mentioned above by another user. It can work fine if cut properly, with witchy Tristen pointing at the window being an absolute welcome addition.
I hope for a version #5. Good job so far.

I hope for a version #5. Good job so far. Thanks a lot for the feedback. I do have a version 5 which I will most likely release some time next month or so, I'm just taking a break for now as I spent an incredible amount of time working on this edit lol. I have so far removed the lowest quality shot of Eileen walking backwards in the hospital - this footage is so low quality it can't be saved and stands out like a sore thumb. The footage overlapped with credits over Jeff's beginning interrogation at the end of the film you mention, I intended the brief credits showing there as the interrogation scene begins with Jeff to be like an epilogue sort of chapter, briefly showing the writer/director credits shows the main part of the film is over (this is what I was thinking when editing it, sort of like something you'd see in a Gaspar Noe or Quentin Tarantino film for example) Also this scene has no audio other than Disposable Teens, everything you hear in this part is edited in. The owl window scene will have the directors cut footage added back in for version 5, the edits I've shown here are a little rough and should be better in the final cut. I'll take a look at removing the second use of trailer footage before the Kim / Owl eating scene. I intended this to be a little bit of a 'reveal' on Jeff's backstory, but I do agree with what you're saying about this scene being overused. Version 5 will also have a even better quality main project source for the footage which will take me some time to replace. but it's worth it I was also testing with replacing the music during the campfire scene with some of the music heard during the filming of this exact scene. streamable.com/v138bb

I actually really like that idea. It gives their dialogue a newer and fresher feel. Changes in audio and music can make a bigger difference than most people would think.

all my streamable samples clips in this thread have been deleted. sorry to anyone who tries to open the links. I uploaded Human Centipede 3 footage and that was apparently enough to shut down and ban my whole account lol. I'm still around, will be back with version 5 soon.
