Wow!

If only two dozen people have seen it, then I must have the only
LaserDisc copy in existence!  Wow, must be worth a fortune!

("Howard" is one of my favorite 'escapist', i.e. not reality-based,
films.  I place it in the same category as "Buckaroo Banzai: Across the
Eighth Dimension".  Fans of the comic book generally disliked it because
they toned the cigar-smoking, wise-quacking Howard waaaay down.  The
film's too weird to have found a large audience among the general
public.  The stop-motion sequences near the end were among the first to
use motion-blur to make the creature's movement look more realistic.)
