OVERALL: R0
The UK 88 Films release for the anamorphic transfer with the most extras.
GENERAL NOTES:
The film exists in at least three versions:
- the original release under the titles "Communion" and "Alice Sweet Alice" (107:05);
- the 1981 "Holy Terror" re-release cut moved up Brooke Shields' credit in the opening titles and made other slight alterations (107:13);
- the 1997 director's cut that tightened the pacing as well as removing a sequence featuring a phone call from the current wife of Alice's father (~102 minutes). Subsequent official DVDs and Blu-rays did not recreate these alterations.
-
CUTS:
- R0 America- Anchor Bay Entertainment - No cuts - original release version, uses the same master as the Roan Group laserdisc without the director's cut alterations.
- R0 Australia- Flashback Home Entertainment - No cuts
- R0 Germany- CMV Laservision - No cuts (102:10 PAL)
- R0 Germany- Euro Video - No cuts (102:05 PAL)
- R0 United Kingdom- 88 Films - No cuts (102:06 PAL)
- R0 United Kingdom- Video International - No cuts - original release version (106:32 NTSC-to-PAL)
