OVERALL: Draw
Mondo Macabro and Artus Films have exclusive extras.
Also available from:
- Subkultur (Germany)
GENERAL NOTES:
The film is availabe ina number of versions:
- The US edition has the longer version of the film - but it is missing the "Bridge" scene in the film itself (although it is present in the extras), both English and French soundtracks, and minor extras.
- The French Artus edition has (presumably) the original US version and the orignal French version, but it is not English friendly.
- The Artus edition has a composite version.
The film exists in a number of versions:
- the Italian version (~96 mins)
- the French version (~90 mins) shorter than the US theatrical version, but including several exclusive scenes, such as the "Bridge" scene (1:20) and a longer "Hallucination" scene (7:16).
- the German version (~93 mins)
- the international version (~94 mins)
- the British version (~85 mins)
- the American version (~93 mins) in which many scenes have been removed, including the "Bridge" scene (1:20), which was never dubbed in English, and offers a shorter (6:29) version of the "Hallucination" scene.
- the extended American verison (~96 mins) restoring all removed scenes, except for the "Bridge" scene (1:20) and offering the longer version of the "Hallucination" scene (7:16).
The English tracks place some music differently from the other cuts, and the American version adds a misogynistic opening narration: "Trouble began with a women. Here in the country village of Veeze outside Amsterdam, Holland, you're about to meet a young man, a writer, who would deny that obvious truth. For he is naive; he respects, he loves women. He is about to change his mind."
