An extended alternate cut. About 6-7 minutes longer, this reintegrates most of the deleted, extended or alternate material. This helps strengthen the relationship between Will Graham and his son (which in turn makes the climax all the more powerful), shows us more of Will Graham's analytic mind, Dolarhyde's madness (including the excised "Red Dragon Voiceover" by Frank Langella), Dr. Chilton's tactlessness, and snips out Lloyd Bowman's reading of the decoded message to heighten the tension of what it might say as Will waits to hear it.
I personally liked this film. While it's not nearly as great as Silence, I give props to Ratner for at least trying to capture that film's mood. So once again pull up a chair to the dining table and enjoy this last soiree with Anthony Hopkins in the role that made him a household name.

P.S. Way cool bonus stuff in the DVD-ROM folder.
Maybe downloadable from Fanedit.info

In 2005, ADigitalMan (to his own surprise) won the OriginalTrilogy.com fan-edit contest with
an entry called "Hannibal: Desserts Served With Your Main Course." That fan edit was
essentially an extended edition of the sequel to "Silence of the Lambs" with some alternate
cuts and some custom touches that hopefully improved on the notorious theatrical version.
Two years later, ADM has taken on the well-intended prequel "Red Dragon." This mostly
extends the film and makes use of a couple alternate ideas, including the excellent Red Dragon
voiceover by the inimitable Frank Langella, and, in the interest of adding suspense, drops
Lloyd Bowman (the always-excellent Ken Leung) reading the decoded message.
Please be sure that if you've obtained this, that you also have the official release of "Red
Dragon" on DVD. As always, these fan edit projects are intended to be an educational
"what if" scenario and are in no way intended to supplant the official release.
And, as always, enjoy!
