I think I saw this many many years ago... and had completely forgotten about until I saw this image! Now I'll spend the rest of the day wondering if I have it in my VHS archive...
Guys - great to have so many comments on this - I, like several of you saw it years and years ago - it was a BBC2 Sci-fi staple here in England up until maybe the early to mid 80's and then it just never got shown.
It's out on Criterion now and worth every penny, great transfer and some nice extras. I picked up my copy last week.
Yes, I meant TAPED vhs... my movie archive is still 80% taped late night TV... I'm an analog kid all right! ;-) I'll have to chek it out, can't believe I erased it...
It really must be seen in widescreen. That old Criterion laserdisc blew my socks off. It wasn't available for long (it was one of their last lasers), so the new DVD is welcome news.

Unlikely...unless you taped it off TV or the old Criterion laserdisc. This one was rare as all get out for years.
i had the same reaction! there must be another copy floating around.
I heard it's set for a big Crierion DVD release. I loved this film.

A much better movie than you'd give it credit for given the name.
I had no idea this was out on DVD - I thought it was still only available on the old laserdisk. Want. Covet.
