Blu-ray

Australia Imprint 4K Blu-ray disappointing, nice new master, but poor encode, grain completely crippled in some scenes, artifacts abound, etc, makes Kino Lorber look like FiM.

Caveat: mostly great video but the 4K Blu-rays have had additional DNR applied in some scenes on top of the DNR that had been applied in post-production and was already present on the DVDs & Blu-rays

The 2020 Blu-ray may be better than the 4K Blu-ray?

New Line Blu-ray have the original 6.1 mixes

4K Blu-ray set is missing extras from the old Blu-ray/DVD releases

Germany Turbine Mediabook Blu-ray has no DNR or sharpening from past releases

Germany Turbine Mediabook Blu-ray has the Hong Kong English subtitles instead of the censored Miramax subtitles.

Miramax Blu-ray has lossy Mandarin audio and does not have the director's cut.

UK 88 Films Blu-ray is the only release not OOP aside from Japan Blu-ray

The non US DVDs have the Making of for the film.

Alleycat's restoration better

Both Kino Lorber 4K Blu-ray and Paramount Blu-ray are problematic. One reel of the Kino Lorber 4K Blu-ray looks inferior, and the Paramount Blu-ray has some edge enhancement. Pick your poison between the Kino Lorber 4K Blu-ray or the Paramount Blu-ray? Maybe the Kino Lorber Blu-ray included in the 4K Blu-ray is better

(needs gamma correction)

The movie was shot in HD and  France Potemkine Blu-ray (needs gamma correction) has slightly stronger encoding than Italy Eagle Pictures 4K Blu-ray. Curzon Blu-ray is the worst of all three (not by much) see caps.

Universal Blu-ray has the original DTS-HD 5.1

Kino Lorber > Artificial Eye, see review

> WB US Blu-ray (better encoding on the Sony disc, missing a commentary from the WB)

Warner Bros Blu-ray has an exclusive commentary
