The new Severin US and 88 Films UK releases have exclusive extras. Both have the Italian track but it is lossy on the US and uncompressed on the UK. Note the Severin release has dubtitles rather than subtitles.
On the other hand, the American and Australian discs include exclusive interviews with Cinzia Monreale and Donatella Donati.
GENERAL NOTES:
The English credits mistakenly list Donatella Donati as "art director" but the Italian credits correctly list her as "aiuto regista" (assistant director).
