Terry 100 Channels is a 30 minute animated film drawn at the peak of Teruhiko Yumura / King Terry’s powers and directed by the cult filmmaker Shinya (Tetsuo: The Iron Man) Tsukamoto. It was first issued in 1985 on VHS as part of a series of illustration-based videos produced in Japan. In 2010 PictureBox reissued this, Terry’s only film, on DVD (but now it's out of print and quite rare to find) and declare it a masterpiece of drawn cinema and a truly funky good time.
