OVERALL: Draw
The US R1 Off Color release includes the best image transfer (both color and black and white versions of the film) and a series of unique extras including a commentary.
The UK R2 and Australian R0 SE editions, also have some decent extras that includes the excellent documentary but picture quality isn't as good as the new restored Off Color version.
The choice is yours as to what is more improtant but a fan might consider the R1 Off Color and either the UK R2 or Australian R0 SE.
