Film in anthology (with changes) vs. Original release

Hello, I noticed this while looking up the film Rituals. The entry shows the cover of an anthology the movie is part of, and it's a legit cover so I haven't flagged it, and the movie's alternate title is listed in common knowledge.

However, I was checking out the IMDB page and found a note that the film was edited for the anthology. The alternate title is correct though. Should these two continue as one page or should there be a separate one for the anthology vs. the complete film?

I personally lean towards the latter, but for now have included the note from IMDB (paraphrased) in the disambiguation section of common knowledge. I'm not 100% sure of what I'm doing so I didn't want to try to make any daring changes yet.

Agree it seems different enough, and we have the facility to show it as an abridged version. (Seems to pass the "dinner party" test, where someone could have a different opinion whether they saw one version or the other).

I've separated away The Creeper titles, it's now at: The Creeper
I've linked it with a work relationship of "is an abridged version of" to Rituals, and taken the alternate title away. I've added a Related Movie to Rituals; feel free to adjust the common knowledge further if you like!

Thanks for your help. :) I'm gradually working into adding info to LT but haven't ventured into more major changes yet.
