Notes:Most complete version - uses the shorter Italian version (~88 minutes) as a base and inserts some material inserted from a VHS-quality source of the longer export cut (~94 minutes).
Before the film, there is a disclaimer that explains that two sources were used to make this the most complete version. About 5 ½ minutes of footage comes from a lesser quality VHS master with the first occurrence happening around the 6:40 mark. For the bulk of the film about 88 minutes comes from a clean source.
Includes several minutes of footage from VHS source, during which the Italian audio option reverts to English.
Box gives AR of 1.66:1. -
