OVERALL: R1

R1 offers the most complete version of the film in its original 2.35:1 aspect ratio, with an anamorphic transfer and extras.

R2 Scandinavia comes close behind, but it is missing on some dialogue at some point in the movie, and doesn't have the featurette found on R1.

The other editions are not in the original aspect ratio and should be avoided.

For an image showing the missing scene not on the US DVD which is on the Danish VHS, check this thread from our forum. Thanks to Hans-Jørn Reimer for providing this comparison.
