Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (BEST version to buy?)
Just wondering what is the best version to buy considering a couple things:
1. True UNCUT version?
2. OAR
3. Video Quality/Extras
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

According to DVD Compare's listing, go with the uncut UK special edition from Optimum.
4:3 is the OAR.

The Optimum includes a director's commentary as well as an interview, along with a discussion of the specific censorship problems in the UK. I just got this from amazon.uk where it is on sale:

MPI is supposedly doing a new version of the disc later in the year. At least thats what I've read from a couple of horror sites.

From the review linked elsewhere in this thread:
"Henry was shot on 16mm film and is presented here in the correct 4:3 ratio."
