This DVD-R edition has likely been mastered from files lifted from an Internet streaming site or from another company’s home video edition. The source materials may be incomplete.
The film is likely accompanied by a music score pirated from another company’s home video edition or a soundtrack compiled from preexisting music recordings.
Note that this company apparently has a history of pirating other home video editions to produce their products. Be aware that purchasing pirated home video editions does not benefit the original edition producers nor the composers whose music is often pirated as well.
For now, this is our recommended home video edition of the film.
