Dead Of Night

Dead of Night was directed by Simon Hunter. A British horror film. This was originally called Lighthouse. But when it was finally picked up by a U.S. distributor it was changed to Dead Of Night. Its been overlooked by many and very underrated. This was released on DVD May 30, 2000. Its out of print and definitely a collectible. The many prices i have seen sellers selling this are averaging $100. One i saw was $139. And also i came across a double feature DVD with Dead Of Night and Queen Of Spades both and a seller was selling that DVD for $350. Those are just some of the more expensive ones i found. If you look around you could probably get one for about $45 to $70 used. So good luck!

Bloody New Year

Bloody New Year an old 80's horror movie, was directed by Norman J. Warren. This was released on DVD October 5, 2004. The VHS of this film is just about as equally hard to find. This DVD is averaging about $80 bucks new on some sites. But you can get it for about $40 new on Amazon from other sellers. And $25 used. So happy hunting!

The House Of The Devil

The House Of The Devil was released on DVD February 2, 2010! It was directed by Ti West and stars Jocelin Donahue. Ti West gives us horror fans a taste of thee old horror days of the 70's and 80's with this flick! It was even released in a special limited edition DVD/VHS bundle! This DVD/VHS combo will be quite a collectors piece! Supposedly there are only 1000 of these bundles made and they are still currently being offered by Amazon! At the time of this posting. I have seen this being sold by sellers on other sites for almost $60 bucks and the highest i have seen so far someone trying to sell it for $99! So whether or not you liked the movie....if you ARE a collector i suggest picking this bundle up while they last. Right now Amazon is selling it for $31.49 and the price went up from $27.99. I got mine for the $27.99. So hurry while they are affordable!!!

There were only 20,000 of these Limited Edition Tins made. And they are numbered on the back. I saw this going for as much as $150. And i saw it going for about $80 used on another site. Amazon still has sellers selling this for about $50 new. Otherwise, you may be able to get it on there from $20 to $40 from other sellers. If you got the extra bucks, get one! Happy Hunting!

Believe

Believe, directed by Robert Tinnell was released on DVD April 18, 2000. Not sure what it is about this DVD that makes it such a collectible. But i found this being sold for $99 USED on a site. But else where i found it going for a regularly priced DVD. I have found the "DVD" logo on other covers being placed in the right lower corner of the cover. And on this cover it is placed lower left corner. Now i dont know if thats making the difference for some reason or not. Or like i said before its something that hasnt gotten around the horror grape vine yet or what. But i would pick one up for just in case purposes anyway.

UPDATE: I have possibly found out the reason why this DVD is going for so much. This movie was released by Avalanche Home Entertainment and released again by Lions Gate. It appears that its the Avalanche Home Entertainment release that is the collectible and going for so much. Thats all i have found out so far. Updated on April 2, 2010

Bay Of Blood

Bay of Blood released on DVD October 19, 1999. Directed by Mario Bava. It seems to be ranging from $30 to $50 new and used anywhere i have come across this movie. So if you are a Mario Bava fan, id suggest you pick this one up if you have the cash and can find it!

Bats Special Edition

Bats was released on DVD February 22, 2000. It starred Lou Diamond Phillips. Bats was also released as a Special Edition DVD. The Special Edition DVD pictured above is the one you want to get your hands on. I have seen it going for $30 used on one site. Its going for about $20 on Amazon from a couple of sellers at the time of this posting. But i also saw a seller on there selling it for as much as $130 NEW. So like i have said before all collectors vary and some know more then others. So maybe there is something about this DVD that just hasnt made it around the horror movie grape vine yet. I would get it if i spotted it for cheap just in case!

However most places i looked it fell in the above stated price ranges.

Asylum Of The Damned

Asylum of the Damned also known as HELLBORN was released in 2003. It was directed by Philip J. Jones starring Bruce Payne, Tracy Scoggins and Matt Stasi. This was released on DVD on September 21, 2004. I am still investigating this one, so look for updates. I found this used going for about $65. But any where else i checked it was still priced reasonably low as any other DVD would. So im not sure whats got this so high yet. Sometimes not all places are aware of a DVDs collectible status. Which is the BEST time to grab up one before it gets around. So that could be the case here. I will keep a watch out and update when i find something out.

Army Of Darkness (Limited Edition Directors Cut)

Army of Darkness A.K.A Evil Dead 3: Army Of Darkness was directed by Sam Raimi. The DVD Army Of Darkness Limited Edition Directors Cut is another collectible to have from the Evil Dead franchise. The picture above looks pretty much like the cover on the DVD. You can pick this up for as little at $10 to $35 used at some places. I saw this selling at one site for almost $90 used. There was about 5000 of these made, so they are numbered. Getting this in Mint condition will cost you over $100.

Army Of Darkness released February 19, 1993 was directed by Sam Raimi. Also known as Evil Dead 3: Army of Darkness. What you want to get on DVD is the Army Of Darkness (Boomstick Edition).

Jack Frost

Jack Frost released January 1, 1997 was directed by Michael Cooney. The DVD version of this movie you will want to get your hands on, is the Simitar Entertainment release. It was released back on November 3, 1998. This is a rare release from Simitar, and its going for as low as $50 to $120 just used. So the Mint version of this release is going to be much higher. I have yet to track down a Mint price for this release. If i come across one, i will update this posting.

Uncle Sam I Want You Dead

Uncle Sam I Want You Dead! This was released on July 4, 1997. Directed by William Lustig. This has been on DVD at least twice that i know of. But what you want is the DVD release by Elite in 1999. The Laser Disc version i have seen is going for about $90. I have spotted this used for many different prices. But getting this NEW is a different story. This is a very RARE hard to find release by Elite. And i have seen this selling for over $300 new. And I'm sure there are collectors selling this for even more then that. Again each collector out there varies and some collectors will pay whatever it takes to get any rare movie etc.

Dawn Of The Dead

Dawn Of The Dead was released September 2, 1978. Directed by George A. Romero. There has been several DVD releases of this movie. The one you really want to get is Dawn of the Dead - The Original Director's Cut (Collector's Edition), as seen in the picture above. I have seen a Laser Disc version of this going for $99. Also, i have seen variable prices for the DVD version. Ranges are any where from $20 used, $60 to $80 new. And some collectors will most likely sell this at a higher price in Mint condition. So if you have it already, good job. If not, look around cause like with any DVD you can find it anywhere they sell used DVDs etc and may get lucky and can pick one up for as little as a few bucks used!

Bad Taste Limited Edition

Bad Taste was released back in 1987. Its had more then one DVD releasing. But there was a Limited Edition DVD that was released on November 20, 2001. That Limited Edition DVD is a collectible. I found one in Mint condition and it was selling for $153 bucks. The lowest i have seen it sell was $30 bucks used. But if you look around on Amazon you can get a new one starting out at about $50. Amazon is also selling it used for $17. And they have a collectible listing at $21.99. So like with most collectors out there, and every collectors tastes etc. vary. If you want this, Amazon is the place to start. Happy Hunting!

The Stepfather 2

The Stepfather 2 was released back on November 3, 1989. Directed by Jeff Burr. Also once again starring Terry O'Quinn. All 3 VHS versions of this franchise are difficult to find, but so far they are not collectibles from what i have seen or heard. However, there was a DVD of The Stepfather 2 released March 4, 2003 and it is worth having. Its being sold anywhere between $70 to $80 bucks anywhere i have spotted this. One place was selling it at $77 and that was used. Now DON'T get this confused with the recent DVD release of The Stepfather 2. The DVD i am talking about has a cover that looks just like the picture above. Happy Hunting!

The Kiss DVD

The Kiss was released back in 1988. It stars Joanna Pacula. The VHS version can be about as hard to find as the DVD. The DVD was released in 2004. It is very hard to find, let alone find
