Looking very similar to the German Blu-ray released a couple of years ago via WB and very enjoyable from them. Those last couple of Drac films from Chris Lee for me are set apart from the others being set in the 70's with the get with it language and all.

Similar cover but a new 2018 HD transfer on the Warner Archive release. I never bought the German release because the reviews on the picture quality were not too kind basically saying that it barely looked better than the DVD.

By all accounts, the German disc is also 1080i/50.

I've found the German WB release great and looks great on my 8ft screen. Will be interesting to see someone do a comparison of the two.

Any extras on this latest rendition? By the way the making of it was issued on sound film way back and I still enjoy projecting that reel as well.

There's a new German Blu-ray disc from Anolis (3 different Mediabook editions + Softbox edition). It uses the previous master from the Studio Hamburg release but it's in 1080/24p.
