I've seen about 3 different releases, plus some combined with other movies, and wondering which to get, as I've seen some comments on Amazon re: picture/sound quality being better on some.
Thanks! -

Buy the Marengo Films version. It comes on a dvd with the movie from 1932 with Joel McCrea called The most dangerous game.
The print is great and great packaging. The other movie is awesome too!

The "Image Entertainment" version is by far the best quality. The other prints look very faded and the synching is off; so "Image" is the way to go. The only extra it has is the original british title sequence which used the book's original, very politically incorrect title.

I just got a 16mm print of the British trailer and it, too uses the un-PC title. My print of the feature is the American release.
By the way, recently a school system had to abandon its production of the play because of what the title USED to be! Incredible. Accusing the school system of racism because of a long-defunct title. -

I will third the support for the Image release. Stunning transfer, and evidently the only one that was restored from the original negatives.
