Halloween Horror Sale - Amazon.com

I did a quick search and didn't see this sale posted anywhere...

Amazon.com is having a sale on most of its horror titles, each divided into seperate categories (ie. International, Supernatural, Monster, Slasher, etc.).

The link to the sale is as follows:

http://www.amazon.com/b/ref=amb_link...F8&node=498868

The prices are decent, but nothing of extraordinary savings. The prices of some of the Criterions are priced nicely, including Eyes Without a Face and Diabolique for $18.97, cheaper than DDD's price at $22.49.

There might be some nice things, but DDD has a lot of horror sales that may let you get some of this stuff cheaper. Especially the Anchor Bay stuff. Thanks for the post.

meh...maybe amazon.com should check DDD prices before they offer their sale? the only cool thing i found is:


The Stephen King Collection (Pet Sematary Special Collector's Edition / The Dead Zone Special Collector's Edition / Graveyard Shift / Silver Bullet)=$24.47 (46%)

The only good part of the Amazon sale is the International section, which is 50% off. It has a lot of the dvds that DDD has in their 47% sale.

There are some solid deals, but some stuff that can be had cheaper. Also checkout buy.com's $10 off of $30 deal as well before buying. The Stephen King set might be a few bucks cheaper there.

Why not go for the "make your own set" at DDD's PAramount B1G1F and get Pet Sematary and Dead Zone ($9.44) and Silver Bullet and Graveyard Shift ($6.03) - $16 is pretty cheap - I don't think I'd pay another 8 dollars just for a slipcase. AS far as I know the Silver Bullet and Graveyard Shift's are exactly the same discs, just new covers - not sure though, I know they don't have any features.

Thanks for the link but Amazon seems a bit out of touch with their competitor's Halloween promotions.

Thanks, OP! I found several titles cheaper than or not available at DDD. On top of that, one of my credit cards is offering an additional 5% rebate at amazon.
