Doesn't look like we are going to see it even in an acceptable quality, either, does it, if you insist on your plan of using DNR?

It was shot on 35mm and should look like film, hence *with* grain.

That it was only released on video should not matter at all in the decision to use DNR or not.

For reference, look on some other BD releases of straight-to-video or TV productions from the 1980s, like for example Dark Night of the Scarecrow (available on BD in Germany as Die Nacht der Vogelscheuche), a 1981 TV production shot on film, which looks better on BD than it ever did on TV and good very good reviews because they left the grain intact in the transfer.
