. . . this is my BOOMSTICK!"
You know, I love Sam Raimi, but he pretty much exemplifies the whole debate about multiple DVD versions of the same flick. Take Army of Darkness . . . you've got the standard version that came out a few years ago, with the pic of Ash and the girl on the cover. There's another version of the same, with a picture of Evil Ash coming out of the ground. Then there's the "unauthorized bootleg edition." There's a Director's cut edition, where Ash is lifting both arms into the sky against a red background. And then there's the Boomstick edition, which combines the bootleg edition with the theatrical cut.
I mean, it's a great flick, but does it really deserve five different disks?
PS
Which is the best one to buy? I'm leaning towards the Boomstick edition . . .
