They're right, it's a great movie. It's actually a sequel to The Black Cannon Incident but goes in a much weirder, sci-fi direction. Hard to say which one I like more since they're so different, but they're both fantastic.

Apparently this will be a dual-format UHD/BD release, just like Hibiscus Town. Can't wait!
