OVERALL: Draw

Vinegar Syndrome, Shriek Show, and Shock Entertainment for the contextual material and original aspect ratio (the film was matted to 2.35:1). Do note that the Vinegar Syndrome comes from a new 4K scan (the German uses MGM's older HD master) and that 5.1 tracks on the German are upmixes.

GENERAL NOTES:
The film was shot in Super 35mm with an intended aspect ratio of 2.35:1. Some home video releases were framed at 1.85:1 while open matte editions had the optically-printed English subtitles for the Serbo-Croat dialogue positioned near the middle of the frame for the 2.35:1 matting.

International prints had only two instances where English subtitles were optically-printed on the screen while American, British, and Australian prints had optically-printed English subtitles for all of the Serbo-Croat dialogue (DVD and Blu-ray releases make use of the international prints and utilize digital subtitles for most of the Serbo-Croat dialogue).

CUTS:

• R0 America- Vinegar Syndrome - No cuts (94:36 NTSC)
• R0 Germany- Dragon Film Entertainment - No cuts (90:28)
• R1 America- Shriek Show/Media Blasters - No cuts (94:54 NTSC)
• R2 Limited Edition Germany- Shock Entertainment - No cuts (90:28 PAL)
