OVERALL: Draw
- The R1 Remastered Re-issue from Criterion features a new anamorphic 1.78:1 transfer and extras.
- The R0 CE from VCI also features an anamorphic transfer (though 1.85:1) and extras but the transfer is a little bit mediocre at best.
- The R2 Metrodome (although initially only available as a double-feature with Shock Corridor) features a few extras. However, the image is in 1.33:1.
- The original VCI release offers a few interesting, though not all related, extras.
- The Wild Side Vidéo contains a bonus disc but one of the extras is in French and the film has FORCED subtitles.
Note the original theatrical aspect ratio for the film is 1.75:1.
