I've had the UHD HDR remastered blu-ray of Heavy Metal since it came out. Will Kaleidescape be adding this to the store? Would really love to see it on here.
I've always loved this movie. While I was in college, it was out of print due to music licensing. We had an S-VHS copy from the annual one-time late-night Cinemax showing, and a local theater still had an original print that they would show on the first Friday night of every semester at midnight. It was a really fun experience, a la Rocky Horror Picture Show.
The remaster is fantastic. The long-awaited DVD release in the late 90s was pretty disappointing. The Blu-ray improved upon the audio, but the image was still flat. This most recent release, which was overseen directly by Ivan Reitman, is the best this film has ever been.
