The original English-dubbed version of the film omitted some sequences that were included in the Italian release prints, but it also contained some unique footage, including some incidential subtitled Italian dialogue. The English dub track also included some brief opening narration from the male protagonist that has not turned up on DVD or Blu-ray.
