Get ready, salads. A
Gun For George, director Matthew Holness’ 2011 short film based on the life
of the titanic Terry Finch, is launched today in a special ‘limited edition’
VHS collectors pack. Released by Celluloid Apocalypse, “specialists in analogue
sleaze, cult and genre cinema,” Warp Films’ A
Gun For George is now available in an
extremely limited edition of 50
copies.
If that fact alone doesn’t give you the sweats, this will. The
release also includes a facsimile reprint of Finchland Fanzine No.19, first
published by yours truly way back in July 1979. This issue, deemed a fanzine
‘classic’ by Finch fans, features an
ultra-rare never-before-published Terry Finch short story. Previously
withdrawn from sale by its original publisher, ‘TOWER BLOCK’ is a gritty,
violent Reprisalizer classic. Only ever available in the original issue,
(eighteen copies sold), its inclusion in this historic VHS release constitutes the
story’s first ‘official’ publication worldwide and is therefore major news for Finch
diehards.
Then there’s the rest. Have a gander below to see what you
get. Remember, this release is extremely limited. 50 copies only, so order now
to avoid disappointment! You in? Then here’s the link, son:

ReplyDeleteLove to see the short given feature treatment. Never heard of the guy, but like his raw stripped-nerve style.
