This is an edited version, and is 10 minutes shorter than the later releases from Image and Elite. Jacket wrongly lists running time as 98 minutes. Time encoded in minutes only.

The back of the jacket states "printed in West Germany." My copy also has a small white sticker affixed to it which states "made in West Germany", appearing to indicate that the disc was made there as well. However, the mint markings seem to indicate 3M as the manufacturer. The disc has only the "ring of dashes" in the inner blank area, and not the "MADE BY 3M USA" mint markings normally seen on their later products.

This release has a major error in the artwork on the front of the jacket. The text above the picture wrongly states the number of murders in the film as five, when in fact there are only four. This error was corrected in the artwork on the two later releases.

Jacket has Catalog Refrence Number ZL016, while disc label has VL016. There are a few seconds of Color Bars at the end of Side One. End Credits don't appear to be complete.
