OVERALL: Draw

The US, Canadian, Italian, Japanese, Scandinavian, and UK "40th Anniversary Edition" and French 4K+Bluray set for having additional disc of extras.

However, note that a few extras found on the DVD editions are missing (text-based extras, additional TV spots).

The following versions of the movie are known (SPOILERS):
- The Theatrical version (~122min),
- The Altered Theatrical version (~122min), in which the "jump cut" when Karras expels the demon from his body at the end has been replaced by a subtle morph, and the 70s Warner Bros. logo has been replaced by a recent one.
- The Director's cut AKA "The Version You've Never Seen" (~132min).
- The Altered Director's cut AKA "Director’s Expanded Cut", in which two of the demon/gargoyle face effects have been removed (~132min).

A comparison between the Altered Theatrical version and the Director's cut is available on Movie Censorship.

A comparison between the Director's cut and the Altered Director's cut is also available on Movie Censorship.

Also note that :
- On all Blu-ray editions, the Warner Bros. logos have been changed on both versions of the movie, compared to the DVD releases.
- The original Theatrical version and Director's cut are available on DVD only.
