Powerhouse Films are including two versions of the film, The Devil’s Men is also known as Land of the Minotaur in the US. The American version is considerably shorter coming in at 86 minutes as opposed to the UK version of 94 minutes.

It’s worth noting that this is a limited edition of just 2000 copies so you may wish to pick this now. That said there will no doubt be a standard edition blu-ray that follows at some point in the future.
