I just watched the Director's Cut last night. It is the workprint, but it is NOT THE WORKPRINT; make sense? It's a combination of the two. It includes all the scenes in the workprint that were NOT in the theatrical, PLUS it also has these that were in the theatrical, but not the workprint:
3. A scene of Brackett pulling up alongside the girls as they walk home. Brackett offers a ride, which only Annie accepts.
4. The graveyard scene with Sid Haig.
7. Loomis buys a gun
9. A scene where Brackett explains how he knows who Laurie Strode’s real family is (a much needed addition as it is never explained in the workprint how she came to be with that family or how Loomis would know where to find her).
PS.
Monster Mash is not used in the introduction.
The death of Laurie's mother is more brutal, as opposed to the workprint version.
Bob is killed inside the house, as opposed to outside in the workprint.
The Laurie-shoots-Myers ending is the chosen ending, not the police-shoot-myers ending.
SO YES. There are three distinct versions... the Director's Cut being the most complete. Enjoy.
