This is unfortunately very common.  Look at the different versions of
Brazil, for instance.

On the subject of US versions of films - for some reason, a bunch of the
DVDs I bought recently had both the US and the UK trailers on them.  I
now declare US film trailers to be officially shit.

Particularly shit is the trailer for Desperado (which I didn't actually
buy, I just got it free with El Mariachi, which is a far superior film),
which proudly announces itself as being subtitled, and then proceeds to
not have a single spoken word in it.
