If by "alternate ending to Part 3" you mean when Chris is decapitated, they actually never filmed that from what I've read and heard. I believe it was in my Crystal Lake Memories book. But that would have been a really cool ending to actually get to see!! Hey roy burns.

Region 2 / 4 DVD release! I actually was able to obtain 'Work Prints' of Parts 4 and 7, but in reality it's just the original theatrical released films with all of the uncut gore and violence intact. Also, most cult horror films released through DVD through Paramount have always been bare-bones releases (example: Phase IV, The Deadly Bees, etc.). I agree that New Line should buy out all of Paramount's Friday The 13th films, because at least New Line does a yeoman's job with their ANOES DVD releases, etcetera, etcetera.

Let's just hope for New Line to be in charge of the DVD Release of the new film...One thing is for sure, I'm glad New Line Made the Nightmare Series. They jam-packed the new Nightmare On Elm Street DVD with lots of goodies not seen in years including new documentaries. With our luck, they'll release some bullshit TV Special they had for AMC 2 years ago for AMC's Horrorfest. That's probably the best TV Edition of the film we'll ever see.
