Just a quick project I did in the last few days.
Shinya Tsukamoto's films have been getting HD restorations for the last few years. Unfortunately, there's been no hint of an HD release of Hiruko the Goblin, since Tsukamoto doesn't own the rights to that film. In the meantime, I upscaled the Japanese DVD and made a single pass regrade to the Japanese Laserdisc.

Audio options:
Japanese LPCM mono from Laserdisc
Japanese 448 kbps Dolby Digital dual mono from DVD
Includes English subtitles (source unknown).
