OVERALL: Draw
The US/Canadian Vinegar Syndrome has the longer unreleased cut, new extras, and lossless original mono audio.
The US/Canadian Blue Underground has the theatrical cut and lossless 7.1 audio but the original mono audio is in lossy Dolby Digital.
GENERAL NOTES:
The film exists in two versions:
- the original, unreleased "Phobia" cut (~110 minutes at 24fps) before the title was changed due to the Paramount release of the John Huston film;
- the theatrical "The Nesting" cut (~104 minutes at 24fps) which was also shortened for pacing.

- Blu-ray ALL America- Blue Underground - No cuts - theatrical cut (103:21)
