I've had the directors cut of The Warriors on DVD for years and have only recently got the theatrical version too on DVD. Much prefer that cut and it's a bit of a shame it's the directors cut DVD that's generally sold and more prevalent tbh.

My sister particularly loves The Warriors, and absolutely detests the DC - she paid over the odds a few years ago for the original version on DVD.

Despite having people I like in it, I thought it looked terrible. Can anyone else vouch for it before I commit to watching it?

Yeah it's good fun. Certainly worth a watch if you like comedy horror.

I read last night that the theatrical is on Netflix with a nice HD print. That will do me until they get there act together and put out a proper bluray.

EDIT - No longer on UK Netflix

I only watched The Warriors for the first time a couple of years ago tbh and plumped for the directors cut DVD without thinking about it. It was only recently after reading about it online it was best to track down the theatrical cut due to the differences. Glad I did now.

That's good to know! Will stick that on the list. Thanks.

One of my favourite things about the film, and I'm glad the DC didn't affect it, is the soundtrack. Fucking ace.

Bad news. I've just had a search on Netflix and it's been taken down. It was definitely on the UK version until recently because I very nearly gave it a watch then, assumed it was the DC and didn't load it up.

Sorry to get hopes up.

Is the version on Amazon Prime the theatrical cut?

Anyway, it's easily tracked down on nefarious streaming sites if you want to see it.

According to the reviews below it, it would appear to be the theatrical cut. Thanks for that, Devon.

The trouble is that if the run time is correct that amazon have listed there, at 93 mins then it' the DC. The theatrical is 92 I believe. If anyone takes a punt on renting it let us know.
