Haven't been there in while.

They had a new display, some old, some new.

Finally able to find "Three O'Clock High". And saw another copy of "Mutiny On The Bounty" SE, took a chance. Some might recall, the last time I bought this set both disc were... blank.

All three discs are mint. And both for MOTB work! Cool. I'll give this a watch this weekend or so.

Saw a few of the new batch. It included Upright Citizens Brigade s2 and Strangers With Candy s3 as well as a lone copy of Ride the Wild Surf.

JohnIan

Picked up Hitchcock's "Shadow Of A Doubt" with slipcover; $5.00.

ProfessorEcho

As Jed Clampett was fond of saying, "Pitiful...just pitiful." It's getting to the point now where the $5 titles should be $3 and the $3 titles $2 or less. Given the sorry state of the DVD industry and the dramatically reduced prices across the board, the tariff for these dregs at Big Lots is starting to look just as ridiculous as the outdated $5 dump bin at Walmart. This just does not reflect clearance pricing anymore and it's only a matter of time until most of this junk ends up at the dollar stores.

Been awhile since I have been to BL but a found a few pieces of interest.

Mostly I saw titles that I have already seen dozens of times, some at higher prices. And not as much niche coolness as there used to be.

ryan458

Some at higher prices is right. I forgot to mention that mixed in with the normal boring titles were what must have been a newer shipment of the same old boring titles...with 6.88 price stickers. Shockingly they seem to be going the wrong direction

mr Articulate

Yeah, the only thing I was interested in were the "Fast and Furious" and "Borne" movies, but they were all tagged $6.88

MooMooMooMoo

Pretty much what I saw at Pearl last week.

kd5

Probably already mentioned but I found Session 9 today for $3.

Rexxriot

Shot in my hometown!

ProfessorEcho

Rexx, is it true that old hospital was torn down?

Rexxriot

Unfortunately, yes. It's been replaced by apartments, I think.

ProfessorEcho

That's sad. It was an incredible structure and should have been an historical landmark. It was spooky as all hell, but such an interesting place. As a setting for a horror movie it was brilliant, but the movie didn't quite live up to it in my view. It wasn't bad, but could have been a lot better. Still, I would buy it for $3 and bring it out every now and then for October screenings.

Lastdaysofrain

Probably for the best. I grew up in that area as well and kids (myself included) used to sneak in there from time to time at night and it was super dangerous. The new apartments kept the "body" of the bat so some of the original structure (and all the underground tunnels, which are there, but blocked off at entrances) are still there.

ProfessorEcho

I wouldn't want to live there. LOL.

jimmaxmed

Is this in the Boston/New England area ???

Rexxriot

True enough. But really, the only reason kids would sneak in there was because it was abandoned. It would have been nice to save since it was said to have inspired H.P. Lovecraft's Arkham sanatorium, which in turn inspired DC Comics' Arkham Asylum.

Shawerma

Saw a new display here in dtown LA. Picked up VIP Season 1 for $3

Surfinhank

The NoHo store on Vineland Ave finally got rid of that 8 foot, 4 sided cardboard "tower". There's a couple of waterfall displays and what's left only takes up about 1 1/2 sides of those wire racks. Inventory is shrinking away.....

JohnIan

I'll be on the look out.

In the east TN area, found The Universial Brando franchise collection for $3 and Shadow of A Doubt for $5.
