Directors Suite 2 Disc Special Edition

Today I bought the 2 disc special edition Directors Suit of this movie. It has some great special features. The film itself is 90 minutes long and has blue tint for night time and orange tint for day time...

I have three other versions of the film... Flashback Entertainment has an 80 minute black and white version. On the cover it says that the film runs for 73 minutes, but it actually runs for 80 minutes. Plus the front cover shows scenes from the 1979 version while the back has shots from both the 1922 and 1979 releases. The entire film is black and white... No tintingBut the film is the 1922 version. Then I have the Force Video dvd version. This also runs for 80 minutes and is in sepia colour, kind of like an orangeish brown tint for the entire film... The other version is on VHS

This VHS version goes for 90 minutes and is in pure black and white. Its also released through Force Video back in 1994. This was the first version I ever saw on tv many years ago...

I am wondering does anyone know where I can get a copy of this 90 minute black and white version of the film on dvd?

Thanks

Any chance you could provide amazon links to the versions you're talking about? I love to collect different versions of this film (I'm up to seven so far) and I'm not sure if I have the versions you've listed here.

Hi... Im not sure how to do that or where to search for the dvds and vhs versions I have. This is probably going to sound weird in this day and age, but Ive never been on the Amazon site.
