[Kap6289]

"V/H/S" is now available to order through Amazon.com

From Bloody-Disgusting.com - "If you’re a fan of V/H/S and were waiting on something a little more lo-fi than on the DVD and Blu-ray this past December in the US, you’re in luck!

Same thing happened with House of the Devil. Pretty cool, but can't say I'm gonna get a copy.

[Kap6289]

I love "The House of the Devil". Glad I was able to pick up a copy of that on VHS before it disappeared. Yeah, I know a bunch of people didn't enjoy "V/H/S". It's understandable. I think it's a fun little movie. Then again, I'm easy to please. Lol.

I feel sorry for anyone buying this. How hilarious that this actually costs mote than the Blu-ray.

[Nighteyes]

Bwahahahaha.

Fantastic marketing idea in concept...

One of the most terrible marketing ideas in actualization!

Are people really willing to spend that kind of money on something of this nature? How long before the functioning VCR population on the planet reduces to the point of being impossible to find one?

I just think that it's a bit loco to invest THAT kind of money for something so old school tech.

Even as a collector, how many people could you honestly show something like this to and actually get a "Wow! No way! That's awesome!!!" reaction from? It's more likely that it will get the same reaction from people as when I tell them that I know all of the lyrics to Ice Ice Baby by heart!

Why feel sorry for them? and it's not that funny or strange. If they're buying it, they're excited to have it. I follow quite a few people on instagram and tumblr who collect VHS' instead of dvd's and blu-rays. Those people would get an instant hard-on for a new horror film being released on VHS. They'd probably pay $50+ for it. It's an oddity, a collectors item and apparently limited. It makes sense that it's more expensive on that basis. If it were just a mass produced VHS, obviously at that price it would be laughable.

I think this would be worth the purchase alone for what it's representing, even if the person never watches it. Since the movie is based around a VHS tape and that's what we're supposedly watching it on, then I feel like this is the perfect collector's item to go along with the Blu-ray release.

[Love Blu-Ray]

Whoever made it just wasted their own $$

[Prim]

I think this is a truly great idea, honestly, and I haven't even seen the movie. For everyone who thinks it's a dumb idea, that's fine. Don't buy it. For a fan of both the movie and the format VHS (and there are a ton of VHS collectors out there) this is great news.

As far as I am concerned, anything is potentially a collector's item, as long as it's wanted and sought after by the people who well, collect it. Which format it's on is entirely irrelevant.

So this is a gimmick, but steelbooks/super collector's editions/Store exclusive editions aren't?


Alright then.

I hate steelbooks.. just saying.

They seem to be taking over actual amaray special editions, which is even worse for me.

now... back on topic.

For people saying that this is a waste of money and time... it will increase in value over time.
