    Is there a Widescreen version and a Pan-And-Scan version?

    No, unfortunately, just the P&S.

    The box didn't say anything about aspect ratio or widescreen.
    It did say something about "original theatrical format", whatever that >means.

    It actually says "original theatrical version", not format, so that's a bit different. It just means that this is the same version--content wise--that
    was
    shown in theaters.

    I only want to buy it if it's widescreen, but wouldn't the box
    say so?

    Yep. Again, this ain't WS. If you have a LD player, pick up the Image SE that came out a years or so ago--it's LBX. If you can't do that, check some online horror sites and stuff, many sell nice video dupes of the version from the LD set, I believe.
