Region: US Number of discs: 1 (2 sides)
Distributor: Elite Entertainment, Inc. UPC: 790594384562
LD release: 28-10-1997 Catalog #: EE3845
Personal note: Found on eBay in december 2003. I just love that red disc :)
Notes:
Cover-error #1:It incorrectly states that the movie was released in 1976 instead of 1987.
Cover-error #2: the R-rating
Disc error: The three second opening shot of the behind-the-scenes section lacks digital audio. On the analog channels it can be heard in its entirety.
The misprints and audio-error only appear on de first pressings.
  The soundtrack was presented in mono on the release, supposedly because the original audio stems could not be found for a stereo surround mix. It seems as if they eventually did surface since Anchor Bay's subsequent dvd features a stereo 5.1 audio tracks.
The first editions (1000) of this laserdisc came in a special "blood-red" color on the disc itself. It seems as if this red color adversly affected older vacum tube-base LD players and a small number of silver discs were pressed. All the other press runs were silver.
