Well, I already have Going to Pieces, but I've been waiting for a decent version of this film to surface in the UK or USA. I think I'll probably pick up this one.

I already have the R1, but I might upgrade this based on the features and rad cover art.

I believe Anchor Bay put out the R2 UK 2-Disc. That release was cut I believe by around 30 seconds, but the R1 release was not. This is literally the first time the film will be released in the UK fully uncut (which I believe the R1 disc is).

Well, no - the last UK edition still had cuts in the film. This looks to be the first time the UK is getting the US cut.

Posted by Juicy.Fruit over in the regular forum (you can't really tell, but there is a slipcover there, too, as zombeaner mentioned):

Got the 3-Disc UE at CDOW for mere £1.99. That´s right £1.99!!!

CDWOW mailed me the wrong version as I was suppossed to receive the 1-Disc version. But, hey, I don´t complain because some smuck at the wherehouse didn´t bother to check the order correctly.

Last House On The Left (3-Disc Ultimate Edition) - £4.25 (after VAT)

When I placed my order there were only 2 in stock, but now it looks like it's out of stock. You can still place an order though.

I wish this had been released in the US. I'm happy to own the US release and all, but this would have been awesome!
