I totally agree. The original was perfect. It's been a long time since I've seen the directors cut but I seem to remember some random insertions like a computer voice or computer sound effect.
One thing I don't get about both versions, was "Grandma Death". They spent a significant amount of time on her. (A picture of her younger self is in the school, she keeps checking her mailbox, etc). But so what? It seems to lend nothing to the story. For a while I was thinking that she might have been involved in a time travel experiment that caused Donnie's loop, but Grandma Death's reason for being in the story is never explained. Any ideas?
