OVERALL: Draw
* The US Grindhouse Releasing and the Austrian releases have superior extras, with both having differing exclusives.
* The UK Shameless release features an exclusive set of extras, though note it is cut.
* The UK 88 Films release has some differing exclusive extras, though note it is also cut.
* The French release also features exclusive extras and an Italian 5.1 track, but it's not English-friendly and the transfer is 1080i.
About "The Last Road to Hell":
* On many editions, there are about 10 seconds of footage missing from "The Last Road to Hell" sequence, located at ~40/45min into the movie, apparently because of print damage. "The Last Road to Hell" is comprised of footage from a "previous documentary" from the filmmakers, that are lost in the jungle. The footage is brief and consists of some mondo footage, people being executed etc.
There are 3 cuts, about 10 seconds in total:
- A scene showing an execution is missing,
- A scene showing an executed, hooded prisoner is missing,
- A scene showing executed prisoners being loaded on a truck is shortened, missing a few seconds in the end.
However, it seems that these bits did not appear in the original negatives.
