Does anyone know if the Something Weird Video DVD-R of this film is full-screen and UNCUT? I'm asking because the new Shriek Show DVD of the film is matted at 1:78:1 and crops out some of the nudity. Has anyone seen the SWV print, pictured below? Thanks!

Last time I saw the print that SWV had, it was very scratchy and splicy as well. SWV release is a perfect way to see it "Grindhouse-style", yet the Shriek Show release is much better picture quality-wise and is complete. Also, from what I've heard, the 1.78:1 aspect ratio on the Shriek Show release is the way it was originally meant to be shot and projected, so if some of the small bits of nudity are missing...well, it's probable those shots were not meant to be seen via the intended matting of the image. |

Thank you Chris! I think, considering how grimy the subject matter is and the era in which it was produced, I may very well pick up the SWV DVD-R. ***And let's head off any matte/unmatted/open-matte arguments at the pass right here guys. I wanted that information that Chris posted and he gave me the info. End of story
