I've only seen that once, but remember it being extremely good. I reckon I'll have time between now and then to watch it again to see if it's worth buying because, if I do buy it, it will be on Blu-ray.

Bought it anyway.The movie was released on the CIC label long before the show aired on tv.

It was released on video at the same time as PSYCHO II.
I remember the videoshops having CIC flyers promoting them.

(Bit of useless trivia there.)

Wish Universal would release PSYCHO II on BD.

Absolutely fantastic! Surely THE greatest anime of all time (perhaps excluding certain exceptional Ghibli films)! My old R1 Pioneer steelbook DVD can at last get an upgrade

Yeah, Optimum have delayed that one once already - it was originally supposed to be released in March, but has now been pushed back to April. Hope all is well with the release, as it's one of my favourite films of the '70s and I've had it on pre-order for a while now...

Neither can I but, last I saw, it has been delayed until May. It seems as if that saying 'all good things to those who wait' is necessary again!
