OVERALL: Draw
The German release has multiple versions of the film with many extras.
The US release has an exclusive featurette, but only includes the UK version of the film.
This American-funded British production exists in two primary versions (the German version - 85 minutes- was created by German editors for VHS and isn't a proper version):
(1.) The U.S. version approved by director Gordon Hessler (91 minutes).
(2.) The AIP U.S. version not approved by director Gordon Hessler (87 minutes).
Differences between the US version and the UK version can be found at Movie-Censorship. -
