The US release for the additional extras. Just make sure you get the 2011 "BLU-RAY ESSENTIALS" release which has the "correct editing" - read on for more details:
Notes about the editing of the original US release: there is one editing mistake (lasts roughly six seconds). The following info is from the High-Def Digest-visitor Tim (review):
"At 1:31.43 - 1:31.49, a bug climbs into the base and gets shot to pieces by the troopers, followed by a shot of Michael Ironside and Jake Busey shooting rounds into some (off-screen) bugs. After that, Casper Van Dien screams to Michael Ironside that help is on the way.
Then at 1:32.00 - 1:32.06, exactly the same footage with the bug getting blown to pieces and the shot with Ironside and Busey is repeated! This time Ironside can be heard (not seen) saying, "Fall back into the compound. Fall back!" Also missing this second time is the sound of the guns tearing up the bug.
I remember that on the DVD version, after the shot with Casper Van Dien and Dina Meyer, Michael Ironside says (and was seen on screen too) the "Fall back" line and then jumps off the barricade. All of this is missing on the (US) Blu-ray version."
