How many versions of FGTH "Relax"?

Postby repoman » Tue Feb 01, 2005 3:15 pm

I've got four versions:
The 'Laser' version
The uncensored 'club' version
The 'Live' version
and one that is similar to the uncensored version, but includes the characters from the movie 'Body Double'.

Are there others?

I hadn't seen the last one listed until last week when I recieved an ETV Network DVD I recently purchased. I was pleasantly surprised to see it was a different version.
