OVERALL: Draw
The Vinegar Syndrome and Scandinavian editions come from a 4K restoration of the original camera negative and features a brief sex scene not included on the Synapse editions - which come from an older HD master - along with extras and two cuts of the film. Do note, the Scandinavian release features a few additional extras.
Choosing between the three Vinegar Syndrome editions will depend on availability and whether you want one or both cuts (or neither) in 4K.
GENERAL NOTES:
Four versions of the film exist:
- the festival cut featuring a softcore lesbian sex scene - details of which can be found HERE included in the German theatrical version which was otherwise censored (~108 minutes);
- the Swedish version with hardcore inserts added by the director (~107 minutes);
- the US theatrical version titled "They Call Her One Eye" (~82 minutes);
- Synapse's "Vengeance Edition" (~103 minutes) which was created by trimming out the hardcore inserts and eye gouging scene for wider sales.
Information on differences between the Swedish version and the "Vengeance Edition" can be found at Movie-Censorship.
A comparison of the Synapse Films Blu-ray/DVD and Vinegar Syndrome 4K-Blu-ray/Blu-ray can be found at Movie-Censorship.
