WTF!?!

Honestly, why the hell do people waste their time creating listings like that? What is the point?

LOL the guy should've listed it as $6,500 OBO.

I've done that in the past with a few OOP titles I own (though never for that high).

My mentality is that I want the movie and would like to keep it, but if somebody else wants it that much more, then they're more than welcome to it.

Yeah that guy ask way too much (and you aren't even sure if it's the Shriek Show release or a bootleg because of the image)... I can sell you mine who is the original SS single DVD release for 4000$ (even in canadian money if you wish)

I want to keep it but if someone want to give me that much money I would certainly not say "no way".

Yeah... Paying that amount of money for the DVD Ltd release is absolutely insane, especially considering that you could get the vastly superior Shriek Show release for a modest 999.99 dollars:

Well at least laughter is priceless and free at the same time, really what are these people thinking?
I can just see an eccentric film geek poring over these listings and saying 'If I only had 6k for that Grizzly dvd'...LOL.

Recently sold my Grizzly DVD for £7.....FUCK

FYI - Death Ship Blu is $16.47 through Deep Discount right now. I ordered that with the Halloween III Blu which was $19.80 to get the free shipping, but also added one of those 10% off codes they were handing out a while back which knocked off just about another $4. I haven't noticed any better prices for these yet.

I watched American Nightmare this past weekend. I have the VHS and always planned on watching it one day, but never got around to it. My mistake. This is one sleazy flick. I had no idea what I was in for…strippers, incest, lots of nudity, porno theaters, sex tapes, drug use, graphic sex scenes, transvestites, and some pretty good kills…this one was seedy as hell and it was all pretty fun to watch…it would probably make a great double feature with Maniac and/or Driller Killer. Man, who knew the Wizard of Gore could direct such a vile piece of trash himself? Awesome.

The transfer is more than watchable…I think the quality itself adds to the sheer dirtiness of the film. Yeah, you’re going to want to take a shower after this one.

Agreed... watched it the other night, and the transfer was more than adequate. If nothing else, it's definitely an upgrade over the old VHS.

Loved AMERICAN NIGHTMARE. This was one gritty flick. Transfer was watchable but a weird green ring popped up around the edge of the frame every now and then. Sort of felt like I was watching the film through binoculars. It was probably some light being reflected off of the camera lens.

I passed on the DEATH SHIP DVD but grabbed Scorpion's other release, BABY SISTER, which I enjoyed very much.
