The German and Austrian releases have all the extras from the Lionsgate releases and add a German language commentary.
The French release has an exclusive French presentation.
The UK release has some of its own exclusive extras. Note the stereo audio track is lossy while the mono track is uncompressed.
GENERAL NOTES:
US prints begin with a text scroll which Vestron requested of screenwriter Stephen Volk (approximately 30 seconds) providing historical context about the events depicted.
Due to a lawsuit filed against Thomas Dolby by Dolby Labs, the Dolby Stereo logo appears nowhere on the film or the original U.S. theatrical posters which advertise the film as being "Presented in 4 Track Stereo" while the theatrical trailer erroneously stated "Presented in 6-Track Stereo". The Dolby Stereo logo did appear on the subsequent video ads, videotape and Laserdisc artwork. -
