You may well not quite like it the first time you see it, but as others in this thread have attested, it will haunt your mind and won't let go until you see it again, at which point you may discover it's a "grower".

As you say, with the price you can't go wrong - if you really don't like it, I'm sure you could get a decent price for it on eBay.
Thanks for your input, I'm certainly looking forward to seeing it and after reading what you said am expecting to like it, I've got Two Evil Eyes on pre-order too despite having not seen it.
