Italy for the anamorphic transfer and best selection of extras. Note that not all of the extras are English friendly.
GENERAL NOTES:
The film was originally released at 80 minutes, and then re-issued in 1979 at 76 minutes, deleting the studio-imposed prologue and epilogue starring Whit Bissel and Richard Deacon. Although originally filmed with the intention of a 1.33:1 aspect ratio, it was cropped to SuperScope upon release making 2.10:1 the OAR.
These all seem to be the original version (80 min - NTSC). -
