Wow your getting some great finds; this weekend I popped into my local Scope and picked up To Live And Die In LA, A Clockwork Orange, Falling Down, The Shawshank Redemption and, erm, Educating Rita* . Only £1 for all 5 and in minty condition too, but that really was all I could find. I think I'm gonna have to travel further afield for the really big hauls like yours .

Oh, and Barb Wire is a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine .

(* sadly this is the cut version without the monkey decapitation and goat rape).

one of the best threads on here i have started collecting ex -rental versions of my fave films if the art work is good , so far have evil dead 2, trick or treat, return of the living dead and a battered toxic avenger box with a moulded 3-d sleeve dunno if any collectable but i noticed vhs in vouge at the mo, mondo tees is releasing a video of an old film called sledge hammer, there was also a vhs release of house of the devil. does your copy of the taint play on uk video players? desperate to see that film may have to invest in the vhs-dvd bundle.
