Also over there is:

Doc Hollywood
Earth Girls are Easy
Excalibur
Flash Gordon
Highlander - 10th Anniversary Director's Cut
Caddyshack 2
National Lampoon's Loaded Weapon 1
New Jack City
Night of the Living Dead
Purple Rain
Jerry Springer's Ringmaster (some people actually liked this, just not me)
Shaft (and several of the original series, not the Samuel L Jackson one)
Singles
Sixteen Candles
South Park (Volumes 1-6)
Tango and Cash (For Stallone fans, not too bad of a movie)
Witches of Eastwick
Wrongfully Accused
Young Guns 2


Some of these aren't the best movies ever, but some are ones that people loved, and others are classics. Some just have actors that people collect movies based upon. Figured I should point these out to any potential collectors. Out of those titles I only really liked Purple Rain, Witches of Eastwick, Highlander, and Caddyshack. Get them while they last!

Forever Young and Highlander: Director's Cut were the only ones I saw that I remembered being good. I just hope Highlander is the movie, not *just* the director's cut! For $7 you have to wonder :Q

That particular dvd transfer of Highlander got ripped at several different review sites. I remember the movie being good, but supposedly it's one of the crappiest dvds available, hence the low price.

Bad Boys (with Sean Penn) was a great flick, but totally depressing. The same goes for Silent Fall (Liv Tyler, Linda Hamilton). Rent 'em, watch 'em, try to forget 'em.

If you're in a buying mood and don't have a problem stocking up on some great, cheesy classics, then I'd recommend:

Doc Hollywood (Totally sweet; good date movie)
Singles (Ditto)
Flash Gordon (Cheese with a capital "C"! & Queen did the soundtrack, dude!)
Ladyhawke (Michelle Pfeiffer was so purty in that one; great love story)
Pump Up The Volume (Christian Slater; great soundtrack)
Purple Rain (Another excellent soundtrack; unintentionally funny dialogue)
Sixteen Candles (classic)
Witches of Eastwick ("Have a Cherry...")
Traveller (Mark Wahlberg and Bill Paxton delivering one of my all-time favorite movie lines: "Hey, Do you got a little Irish in you? No? Do you want some?")
Sharkey's Machine (The villan in this movie still gives me nightmares! Bleargh!)

None of those are what I'd consider "must haves", but if you need a few dvds as gifts, or just want to round out your collection a bit, there are some decent titles to be had.

I really thought Falling Down was an excellent movie... if you like dark comedy.
