That was definitely true for the first batch of $5 BDs that showed up last year. Only 2 locations out of 32 in one East coast metro area ever got them in. I think it is some sort of viral sales gimmick. Generate positive word-of-mouth on the Internet such as this thread and get shoppers excited to visit Target, even though few locations will carry them.

Bumping this to say that new stock of $5 Blus were at my local Target. I picked up HANG EM HIGH and RISING SUN. There were more, but I was in a rush and couldn't jot down titles.

The whole series is too dark imo.

Would love for someone to please answer this. It's the first I have heard of it, so I would like to see if my version is "corrected" or not.

I thought I read somewhere that the versions with the red bubble advertising the alternate ending is the corrected version;

What about the individually packaged version?

Reviews for both of the individual movies found on the Hostel double-feature:

If you want these movies in the best presentation with no problems and all the extra features, skip the $5 Mill Creek BD and get the original Sony releases for each movie. Anyone telling you differently is either a Mill Creek shill or don't know what they are talking about.
