Whereabouts:
Comment from website "Ozmovies":
"Possibly never screened commercially in Australia, though it is suggested that the film was given a limited release under the new name "Hypnotised" in rural areas of New South Wales."

"Availability: Not known outside the archive, and even within the archive, only in partial fragments. It is considered a substantially lost film."
