        The theatrical cuts of the original Star Wars Trilogy
        Blackhole
        Dragonslayer
        Condorman
        You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

            True Lies. It's supposedly been in the works for several years.
            I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

            If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

              Suspiria (has been in the works for years)
              The Black Hole (Come on, Disney! Where's the love?)
              Dawn of the Dead 3D (Come on Richard Rubenstein, you spent all that money on the conversion!)
              Young Sherlock Holmes (Hello, Paramount, anyone home?)
              Explorers (Um... Paramount?)
              Dragonslayer (Paramou... aw forget it!)
              Horror of Dracula (supposedly needs restoration work)
              Curse of Frankenstein (same)
              Spider-Man 1977 TV Series (The Red-Headed Stepchild)
              Fear No Evil (Guilty pleasure, shot in my hometown and my daughter's school)
              Scars of Dracula (can't get enough Hammer)
              Dracula A.D. 1972 (see above)
              Lust for a Vampire (Why so much hate for this film? What's not to like?)

              A few months ago, Salem's Lot and Phantasm would've topped my list, but they are forthcoming. If only Barnes and Noble would fulfill my preorder for Salem's Lot. They seem to have underestimated the popularity of that title.

              Also, Dwayne, Kingdom of the Spiders has been announced by Code Red for either late 2016 or 2017

                The 66 Marvel cartoons, heck even on dvd would be ok.

                    The abysmal treatment that film has received since VHS has been a real head scratcher.

                        If you have a multi regional player they are available legally in the UK. They've been available for about 10 years or more. Great sets and highly recommended if you have multi region machine.

                        The beauty that surrounds them
                        Isn't it a pity".

                          It's been a while since I've looked at my LD copy of True Lies. Last I remember it was a really good LD.

                            Dracula (1979) in its original theatrical color. It's my favorite Dracula movie of all time and it has had abysmal home video releases from dvd to the 2014 blu-ray where color has been nearly all striped away making the movie look pale and washed out.
                            You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion.

                              Ooh, good topic!

                              Star Wars Trilogy (Original Theatrical Editions) [absolutely this - is 3 films in 1 cheating?]
                              THX 1138 (Original Theatrical Version) [the other original version that George Lucas has denied everyone]
                              Dune (Extended Edition) [was available on DVD, but only the standard version is on Blu-ray]
                              Rad! [super cheesy, still only available on VHS]
                              Gleaming The Cube [another cheesy but fun 80s flick]
                              Children of Nature [incredible Icelandic film]
                              Idiocracy [hoping that in hi-def I can read all the hilarious background signs]
                              Pump Up The Volume [huge influence on my going into radio]
                              Something Wicked This Way Comes [Disney does dark Ray Bradbury]
                              Zentropa [Hitchcock-esque very stylized film set in post-WWII Germany]

                              --SKot
