People will be going, "You have to see the original." I'm not making an intense picture for the purpose of making an intense picture. The first cut was a lot more intense with more subliminal cuts and things like the spider-walk that got taken out of the release version. When "The Exorcist" came out, it only showed in New York and L.A. The original release will have limited screenings. I want to make an adult movie: dark, disturbing, and intense. With "Strangeland: Disciple", we are doing the reverse of what is going on today — which is to release the R-rated movie in the theaters and then do the unrated director's cut on DVD.
