Timerider: The Adventure of Lyle Swann - DVD Release With Alternate Version

DVD Release With Alternate Version

Two brief scenes were cut from the above theatrical version for the 2001 Anchor Bay Entertainment DVD release:

  • The scene where the time experiment scientists pinpoint Swann's exact day in the past as being November 5, 1877 is missing.
  • The scene where Reese is struck by the rescue helicopter's tail rotor, leaving only his sheared off, bloody feet and boots is missing. Instead, the original sound effects remain, and a shot of Reese cowering on the ground is inserted.

As of April 2011, the original theatrical version is currently available as a rental from Netflix. Both versions cite a 93-minute running time.

Shout! Factory announced they would be releasing the film on Blu-ray on March 19, 2013.

Famous quotes containing the words release, alternate and/or version:

    The steel decks rock with the lightning shock, and shake with the
    great recoil,
    And the sea grows red with the blood of the dead and reaches for his spoil—
    But not till the foe has gone below or turns his prow and runs,
    Shall the voice of peace bring sweet release to the men behind the
    guns!
    John Jerome Rooney (1866–1934)

    I alternate between reading cook books and reading diet books.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    Remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the LORD your God brought you out from there with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm; therefore the LORD your God commanded you to keep the sabbath day.
    Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 5:15.

    See Exodus 22:8 for a different version of this fourth commandment.
