The upcoming Blu-ray from Scream Factory will have two versions, a HD version that runs 94 minutes, and a complete 104 minute version that is mainly HD, but which will have inserts from a standard-def European print source.
Even with the inserts being standard def, I recommend the longer cut as the best one to watch. It should contain all of the footage from both the US and Spanish theatrical versions. -

I found a Shout! Factory blu-ray being released in December on Amazon, is that the one you're referring to? There are several reviews (from the DVD release) already linked to it, confusingly, but the Blu-ray is definitely not out until December, as you said.

Yes, the Scream Factory release on December 27th, 2016, will be the first release of the film in the Blu-ray format, anywhere in the world. The reviews currently posted on Amazon refer to poor quality US DVD and DVD-R releases from the past.
I'm sure that Scream's Blu-ray will be the definitive presentation of the film. -

I hope this Blu ray will sport a nice 2.35:1 w/s transfer. Whether it is anamorphic or not I really couldn't care.

The blu ray looks amazing! Even the longer cut looks great with a little lower resolution during the inserts but still looks great. Both versions are on one disc at very high bit rates for little or no compression problems. If you are a fan and have a blu ray player this is a must have!

And I've just ordered them literally a minute ago. I also have
2
of the original Australian vhs under the "Film & cable sales".-used by the old bootlegger companies. My collection just grows and grows
