It's a banner day for Wilderness Years junior campers as the 35mm prints of the TV Movie have been lovingly scanned and become a 4K release on Blu-Ray, at least in the UK (for now). Plus there's a new documentary on The War Between on Youtube for North Americans pining to see…well, anything about them there Homo Aquas, a new Rachel Talalay video revealing "The Star Beast" directorial trickery, and most excitingly, an interview with journalist Paul Kirkley about the current state of the UK industry. Hint…it ain't great! Set your VCR to channel 3 to find out more!
