Director Russell Mulchacy, along with the producers, had been given permission to 're-edit' this film. The result being 'Highlander 2 The Renegade Version'. Apparently the original idea for Highlander 2 was quite different from what was actually produced. The studio's did not like the script and several scenes were cut down, changed, or removed altogether, resulting in this 'Quickening' Version.

I was fortunate enough to have been able to obtain the 'Renegade' version and no longer do I feel that this is a bad film. There is over 20 minutes of unseen footage, all reference to the planet Zeist has been removed, and what we now have is a film that does follow on nicely from the original.
What the producers and director wanted, was a film that did follow on from the original, but also a film that could stand alone, so people who had not seen the original could still watch the film without having to have seen Highlander 1.

Although this 'Quickening' version is poor, the 'Renegade' version is well worth checking out!

Has anyone else here bought this version and is it as good as this reviewer says?

Can anyone find it cheaper? (Apart from slow dvdSoon £4.53 with iCard)
 
Its better then EIV's vile Quickening in full frame, although not anamorphic The Renegade version is one big improvement. :D :D
