OVERALL: Blu-ray A

Vinegar Syndrome for the extended version with all material now sourced from film as well as the extras.

GENERAL NOTES:
There are two principle versions of the film, the US theatrical version ("The Outing") and the international version ("The Lamp"). Both run roughly eighty-eight minutes but contain some footage differences. "The Outing" features opening credits on black and follows with the three toughs breaking into the home of the old woman to rob her. "The Lamp" has its credits rolling over a period flashback in which a ship carrying artifacts from Damascus arrives on the Texas Gulf Coast.

CUTS:

• Blu-ray A America- Vinegar Syndrome - No cuts - extended version (91:56) including previously unused material physically cut from the original negative.
• Blu-ray A Double Feature America- Shout! Factory - No cuts - A composite of the R-rated American version and the original opening sequence seen in international prints, the latter sourced from video (88:54)
