Do I have a counterfeit dvd? Please look at pic.

FYI: I'm double posting this from the Video forum because I realized it really should have been here.
I've been looking forever for a dvd of a British sf movie called 'Quartermass and the Pit' (released in the U.S. as 'Five Million Years to Earth).
I found a place in Vermont who sold me a copy. But the disc doesn't look like ANY dvd I've ever seen. It looks kind of purple, like a blank disc you buy at Staples to burn.
The movie doesn't play properly. It is not smooth. For example if someone is walking across a room you see it sort of 'skip' like it's missing frames. Gave me a migraine in about ten minutes and I had to stop watching.
So what's up with this purple disc? It's on the left, a regular disc is on the right. I talked to a guy at Oppo (I have one of their players) and he told me he had NEVER seen a manufactured dvd look like this. I'm thinking I've finally seen a 'counterfeit' disc.
