Just avoid the UK release which features the cut US version – the US release features the uncut UK version!!!
Three versions of this film exist:
(1.) An extended version only found on the 2022 German Blu-ray which contains extra material seemingly only ever in the German release (100 minutes NTSC = 96 minutes PAL).
(2.) The original UK version which is considered the original, uncut version (97 minutes NTSC = 93 minutes).
(3.) The heavily cut US version (87 minutes NTSC = 84 minutes PAL).
