There are 2 world of Hammer docs as extras.

To be honest i would guess its the same as your release.

R2 Germany- Anolis/E-M-S - (Anolis/E-M-S): 90:48 min (PAL). Is missing only 40 frames (from the Unrated-version). Ivo Scheloske (CEO of Anolis Entertainment):
"When we started with our Hammer Edition, we were lucky to find a lot of true collectors and fans who provided us with tons of material. Among it several versions of FTMFH (incl. the dutch VHS-tape). When we received finally the Digi-Beta with the original master (the same that was used by Paramount) we compared it with the version we already had and noted the missing or replaced scenes. We then talked again to the great guys at Cineserve (the lab Hammer Films - and not only them - are using) and explained them the situation plus prsented them the rumour that a british tv station was supposed to have aired a version that included the missing footage but would miss other footage included in the US-version. After a few weeks they had finally tracked down an old 35mm print, which they found (I hope I recall that correctly) in a theater nearby. They lended us the print and we vhecked it for the missing scenes and were in heaven, when we found out that it included all of them (except for the allready mentioned 40 frames at the end of the throat slashing). Those elements were digitized (I hope that is the correct term) and then digitally cleaned up, colour corrected (so they match the Paramount master) and then incorporated in the original master."
