If you have the DVD/Blu ray there is a featurette on there about the restoration etc etc on the film itself.

Right on Dem. Stay away from that retcon. How dare they bloody well do that and not even give an option to watch the original version. Where have we heard that before?

Original only.

More of a which version. The Black Cat, the Karloff/Lugosi film. There seems to be two dvd releases out. Anyone know which is best?

Cheers Dem. There seems to be an earlier release available from Second Sight as well. Know if there's any difference?

I have the Second Sight release with this cover. From my notes and looking at the back, it has no special features and hasn't had any noticeable restoration. I don't know how it compares to the later release.
