Theatrical Cut, Extended Cut or Argento Cut

Which is your favourite version?
Mine is the theatrical.
I like the Dario Argento "European" Cut with its extra gore and brisker pace even though it's unforgivable he deleted the scene with the zombie meeting the helicopter blade!
I'm not a big fan of the Extended "Cannes" Cut, it drags a little too much.
I'm aware that there is an unofficial cut out there with ALL footage incorporated but I've never seen it.

You hit it on the head for my reasoning too! Theatrical is the best. Extended is too long and drawn out (many unnecessary scenes IMO), and the European cut is good, but can't overlook the missing Helicopter kill!
