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 film exists in two primary versions (the German version - 85 minutes NTSC = 82 minutes PAL - was created by German editors for VHS and isn't a proper version):
(1.) The original, uncut UK version approved by director Gordon Hessler (91 minutes NTSC = 87 minutes PAL).
(2.) The cut AIP US version not approved by director Gordon Hessler (87 minutes NTSC = 84 minutes PAL).
Differences between the US version and the UK version can be found at Movie-Censorship. -

- R1 Double Feature America- MGM Home Entertainment - No cuts - Uncut UK version (91:14 NTSC)
