Severin Release vs. Alfa Digital Release?


Help anyone? Alfa Digital released this at 94 min running time a few years back (letterbox), under the title Seven Notes in Black. It is a sort of low-budget affair box-art (disc art)-wise, but the pic quality itself is fairly decent. I have it. But can anyone compare this to the Severin release (97 mins) in quality of picture, missing footage (94 mins vs. 97 mins), etc.? Apparently, the Severin release is poor? Thanks...

Alfa Digital is a bootleg. Also, is the Alfa release PAL, if so the speedup (25fps over 23.976) causes it to be 3 minute shorter (I did the math)

Severin release is not poor, it's very good actually.

The Severin release is top notch quality wise, but a bit on the pricey side.

Don't be thrown off peoples - just because the Severin release carries the name THE PSYCHIC, it is NOT the cut version on the disc. It's a good disc.

The Severin DVD is a nice one. It also has interviews with Dardano sacchetti and such
