Day 1 for me! I don't even own it on DVD, and it's a favourite!
I used to reason like you with some films, sukebanboy, but then I saw TCM in HD, losing none of its grimy atmosphere while at the same time being absolutely beautiful! Henry is also 16 mm and should look grainy even in 4K resolution, only now with a grain structure truer to the source.

Not a big fan of CHAINSAW, but I will definitely be keeping an eye on this HENRY release now.

I'll definitely upgrade if it turns out well. I have a flyer for the film with Joe Coleman's artwork for a showing in NYC. It may have come from Joe as I corresponded with him a little bit. Seems like I have some postcards for the movie, too.Last edited by Keeth; 08-26-2016, 03:58 PM.

Re: the Joe Coleman artwork. I remember when the BBFC finally passed HENRY in 1989/1990, my local BFI-funded cinema showed the film and they had a poster with the Joe Coleman artwork on it in the box office. They even had t-shirts bearing the Joe Coleman artwork for sale in the box office; needless to say, I bought one and may still have it somewhere.'You know, I'd almost forgotten what your eyes looked like. Still the same. Pissholes in the snow'

One of my favorite movies of all time. Terrific score, too.
