Evil Dead 3 - Hong Kong

Can anyone tell me the best places to buy Hong Kong dvds?
I read on dvdcompare that the R3 Hong Kong release of Army of Darkness is the longest cut of this superb film and I`m eager to get it.
I haven`t got any non-english dvds and so I was wondering what the set up is when I would finally get to sit down and watch it. Are the subtitles burnt into the picture or would I have the option of turning them off?
Does anyone out there own this?
Cheers people.

Try dddhouse.com or yesasia.com.

It is slightly longer than the Anchor Bay director`s cut, one brief scene containing nudity, but the picture quality is much better as is the sound.

You can turn the subs off.
It`s well worth getting.
Hope that helps :D

Thanks mate - now I`ve just got to work out Yen - Dollar - Pound!
There is Army of Darkness Directors cut, Army of Darkness Boomstick Edition, Army of Darkness Official Bootleg etc etc...
It`s so confusing.
I used to have a pirate video of this when the film first came out and I remember it having more scenes with the little Ash`es at the windmill and also the downer ending. I never saw the supermarket bit until last year!
I take it this R3 version has got the lot!

Buy it from DDDHOUSE in Hong Kong, should get a better deal as your paying in HK dollars not Yen.
