Viewing Notes

Finally cracked open the new steelbook from Synapse Films and watched the restored original Spanish version, which is approximately 20 minutes longer than the English version.

Gotta say, I didn’t remember too much about the setup for this, and it felt like there was footage I hadn’t seen before, so my assumption is the DVD version Jay owns that we watched way back when was the English version.

Given its age, the restored version looks pretty good. Still hoping for a full box set of all four films at some point but for now this is a good start!
