Gloria Lynne Henry photo

Gloria Lynne Henry was born in Detroit. Her acting career started very early as she has been performing on stage since the age of eight. After receiving her B.F.A. in theater arts at Wayne State University in Detroit, Gloria helped to create a children's' theater program at Detroit's Attic theater. She has also traveled with the international group 'Up With People', on its European tour and performed in Equity playhouses across the United States. Her first experience in front of the camera was in a small role in the TV movie Bare Essence (1982), but it was not until 1994 when she got recognition from Horror/Sci-Fi fans worldwide after co-starring in Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead (1994). Don Coscarelli gave her the role of Rocky mainly because of her tough look and the fact that she was a student of the martial arts. To date, it remains as her most important cinematic performance and even nowadays she keeps going to Horror conventions and Phantasm reunions to meet her numerous fans. Since her appearance in Phantasm III: Lord of the Dead (1994), Gloria had a couple of brief roles in The Devil's Advocate (1997) and in The Horse Whisperer (1998). More recently, she's been working in a variety of national commercials. In addition to her acting work, Gloria has also performed as lead singer in the critically acclaimed funk/rock band 'Chatter', which was originally formed by her cousin Brian Hardgroove, who has extensive music credits. Gloria Lynne Henry currently resides in Los Angeles with her husband and son.

, Shout Factory 4K Blu-ray is more filtered than Warner Bros Blu-ray, although differences may not be audible.
(While the LaserDisc 2.0 is reportedly better clarity in dialogue?)

Additional Info:

DV Plot. For those curious, the sculpture is still the altered one found on the re-issued DVDs, and previous Blu-ray.

5.1 audio on the Shout (either be 1080p or 2160p) was 16-bit, with more roll-off than the Warners one, the Warners was very similar to the NTSC and in terms of balance of the mix, while the Shout seems to be tinkered with, with the score at the beginning and at the end sounding worse on Shout.

Audio Comparisons: Slow.pics

For the regular commentary found on the NTSC DVD "Original Version" (there's no difference including the other NTSC DVD), Shout or Warners; the Shout commentary was just a bloated lossy transcode with some EQ. The best one was from either of the two DVDs.

Commentary Comparisons: Slow.pics

Now there's another commentary; it's basically the same commentary but has some parts different than the others, it can be found on EUR PAL DVD with subs for said commentary. The subs for it doesn't sync for the commentary #1 and vice-versa. Samples
