OVERALL: Draw
Almost identical, except Vinegar Syndrome has English HoH subtitles for both versions while Germany has a few minor gallery exclusives.
GENERAL NOTES:
The film was produced in two versions:
- the original "Macabra" cut for Mexico and overseas territories (90 minutes)
- the "Demonoid" cut (79 minutes) which cut some expository footage but also added inserts featuring a silhouette of the demon statue (actually a different prop from the one scene in the mine) and added gore inserts for several of the killings, as well as an alternate ending. -
CUTS:
- R0 America- Vinegar Syndrome - No cuts - features both the U.S. theatrical (79:56 NTSC) and international (90:14 NTSC) versions.
- R2 Limited Edition Germany- X-Cess - No cuts - features both the U.S. theatrical (76:40 PAL) and international (86:32 PAL) versions.
