This is a hybrid version of the European Theatrical and US Director's Cuts: "The HD version available for streaming and cable showings in the United States (and released on Blu-ray in Japan) is an amalgam of the US Director's Cut audio and the European theatrical version picture (with the US opening and end titles spliced in). This means that the enhanced visual effects from the US version are missing, while the sound effects corresponding to them are still there (such as when Kane first arrives in New York). Also, Kane's line when he emerges from the cave is "He owes me 400 years" instead of "for all those years," and the song "God Took a Picture" plays over the end credits instead of "Bonny Portmore."

The second subtitle track on this one only provides Japanese translations for the on screen titles (eg "New York").

Made some amends about the dub track, as it is an incomplete dub with the second subtitle track subtitling the missing portions as well.
