I think, I had more than one SD version of this film but at the moment found one SD-Video Sound version. It's not anamorphic and is pseudo-Progressive & has Subtitles. Recall, it was common with SD-VS titles that original SD solo release were 24 fps Progressive & no subtitles. Same videos turned pseudo-progressive as subtitles were inserted.

Early Video-Sound release.

The Anamorphic Video-Sound/Spark release looks much better. Screenshots are available on page 1 of this thread.

Found another SD-VS (mainly SD) copy. It is 4 GB, 24 FPS Progressive, not anamorphic (vertically stretched though, meaning wide AR), no subtitles, 2 Ch audio.
This one is perhaps the original SD release and what I bought in those days, most likely was a cheap copy (there was more demand for subtitled DVDs). As I mentioned earlier, original SD DVDs used to be Progressive but without subtitles, and later when subtitles were inserted by Video Sound, these turned pseudo-progressive. PQ is about the same in both DVDs, may be a slighly better PQ in Progressive DVD if watched in Progressive (Force Weave) mode but the later versions have 5.1 audio. (Playing this 5.1 audio, I don't hear anything coming from rear speakers ??)

Not sure if original film really had 5.1 audio ?

But, getting a second opinion on PQ, they said the Pseudo-Prog version looks better PQ. (Pseudo Prog version is DL and hence higher bit rate). So, I'll say, both versions PQ is about the same and is pretty good.
