There are two versions of this movie in Region 1: the wide-screen, like this one, and a full frame 1.33:1 ratio DVD. There has been no hint of a Region 4 release of the full-screen version, nor should there be. This widescreen version is superb. The Region 4 version of this disc misses out on: - Holographic cover slipcase
- DVD-ROM content
- French subtitles and soundtrack
- Spanish subtitles
The Region 1 version of this disc misses out on: According to the Region 1 reviews the DVD-Rom content only contains some links to the Warner Brothers web site which you can visit without the disc anyway (the actual link is http://www.ghostshipmovie.com). The holographic slipcase is something that I would have liked to see. At least the extras remain intact for our local release. I still prefer the local version, and do not see the missing features as good enough reason to import the disc from the USA.
