Release: Aug 12, 2012 - Author: Blade41 - Translator: Gladion - external link: IMDB
Due to the Twilight-movies' huge success, there was a real flood of horror movies and series with a romantic touch in the past few years. Especially vampires and werewolves are the most successful themes. Other figures, like for example zombies, of course, too - they will get their own Twilight with Warm Bodies next year.

Aside from just that vampire-franchise, especially the Vampire Diaries are an international success on TV. Impressed by that, MTV developed its own series combining a horror plot with romance. Loosely based on the 80s-comedy Teen Wolf with Michael J. Fox, MTV sent the series of the same name into the fight for the audience's favor in summer 2011. The ratings were good and the broadcaster ordered a second season, which is on air in the US for a fwe weeks now.

Before the second season was broadcast, though, 20th Centurz Fox released the first season on DVD in the USA on May 22nd, 2012. As a special gift for the fans, an extended version of the season finale "Code Breaker" was put on the disc next to the TV-version. It differs from the TV-version in numerous ways, but rarely offers any interesting or important changes of the plot. What remain are extended and additional dialogue or generally scenes which run for a few more seconds.

The TV-version has been compared to the extended-version, which are both found on the US-DVD by 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment.

There are 23 differences between the two versions. In total, the long version offers 4 minutes and 5 seconds of alternate and new footage.
