| Notes | Contains two versions of the movie, softcore and hardcore but neither one is the same version that the French disc has. Brigitte Lahaie appears in the hardcore scenes (3). |
This is a softcore version but includes the bits that are missing from the German softcore version plus at least one shot that is missing from the German hardcore version. |

To change between pictures take your mouse cursor over the links and wait for a while for the picture to change (will depend a lot on your connection speed). By clicking on the links you can see bigger images which help spotting the differences between the two transfers.
The German softcore version is definitely the best of the three as far as image quality goes and is the only anamorphic transfer, and also happens to be the only one with English subtitles. Unfortunately it is missing around 19 minutes compared to the hardcore version (and several minutes of those missing ones are not hardcore scenes). The hardcore version on the other hand is missing at least one small scene with Brigitte Lahaie (see screenshots below). The French disc has a softcore version only but it contains lots scenes not included on the German softcore version, yet is missing piece of footage when Mike grabs the girls by the hair (probably because of print damage). And the German hardcore version has some non-sex footage not found in the softcore ones… Great.
Cropping varies from version to version and scene to scene.
