Top 50 movies that need to be ON DVD

[SaintMort]

50) Alligator 1/2 - One of the best mock "Jaws" films of all time... it needs to be seen

49) Monster Squad - It's been said about a thousand times on this board but it's still true to this day

[CoreyHeldpen]

Good news, Monster Squad is due to be on DVD sometime in the very near future.

48) Burmuda Depths
I've said this before on numerous B-Movie forums across the web, its high time this forgotten classic gets the DVD release it deserves.

47) Flash Gordon (1980)

46) Queen of Outer Space (1959)

45) Rocket Man (1997)

43. JUST IMAGINE! (1930) A bizarre sci-fi musical set in 1980. Partly set on Mars, where they have big musical production numbers, too.

42. ISLAND OF LOST SOULS (1933) Charles Laughton and Bela Lugosi in what is perhaps the creepiest of the '30s horror films.

41. DANTE'S INFERNO (1935) Spenser Tracy as a dishonest businessman who owns a fire-trap carnival attraction based on Hell.

40. THE MAGNIFICENT AMBERSONS (1942) Orson Welles' mangled masterpiece.

39. THE LODGER (1944) The great Laird Cregar in John Brahm's remake of Hitchcock's silent film.

38. HANGOVER SQUARE (1945) Cregar & Brahms take two: this time with an amazing Bernard Herrmann score featuring the ten minute piano concerto Concerto Macabre. Cregar died as a result of studio-induced dieting before this was released.

37. WHITE WITCH DOCTOR (1953) Robert Mitchum and Susan Hayworth and Charles Gemora in his gorilla suit. Another great Herrmann score.

36. TWISTED NERVE (1968) Hayley Mills and Hywell Bennett in a controversial serial killer film. Did I mention yet another terrific Herrmann score (the whistled main title music was featured in KILL BILL)?

35. DODESUKADEN (1970) Akira Kurosawa's first color film. Unforgettable look at the lives of the inhabitants of a Tokyo slum. The film was such a finacial failure Kurosawa attempted suicide.

34.THE NIGHT DIGGER (1971) Patricia Neal (still recovering from her stroke) falls for an English serial killer. Too bad it doesn't have a spectacular Bernard Herrmann score - oh wait! It does!


<<<BUT MOST OF ALL>>>

33. NIGHT OF THE DEMON (1980) THe ultimate killer bigfoot movie! Bigfoot rips a biker's dick off onscreen (blood spurts from his crotch), rapes a mentally retarded hillbilly named "Crazy Wanda" and gets her pregnant, swings a guy in a sleepingbag around and around and impales him on a tree branch, and forces two girl scouts to stab each other to death with their scout knives!

The only movie I've seen where the opening credits roll over a blood-filled bigfoot foot print.

I fixed it. I was watching tv while I was typing that.

[Shadow]

47) Flash Gordon (1980)
46) Queen of Outer Space (1959)

Take a look at THIS and THIS.

44) INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN 

Do you mean the one in THIS set?

[Derf]

31.) Twice Upon a Time (1983) I've posted about this one a couple of times before, but I've met very few people who've seen it.

30.) Shadowzone. Early Full Moon production that is pretty well done. For that matter, we need a re-release of the Puppet Master series.

[SaintMort]

29) Incredible Melting Man

[Him]

47) Flash Gordon (1980)
46) Queen of Outer Space (1959)

Take a look at THIS and THIS.

Its good news, but I don't see any release dates.

[Shadow]

Flash Gordon on August 7th and June 26th for Queen of Outer Space.

[Him]

Flash Gordon on August 7th and June 26th for Queen of Outer Space.

Thanks

28) How about putting that old anthology series Monsters on DVD? I watched some episodes on YouTube, some prettty neat stuff. I'd shell out $40 for a box set.

[JaseSF]

27) The Deadly Mantis
26) Dr. Strange
25) The Collector
24) Deep Red (1994)
23) Colossus: The Forbin Project (a proper non pan and scan release)
22) Ghidrah, the Three Headed Monster
21) War of the Gargantuas
20) When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth

Plus it would be nice to see anamorphically enhanced versions of the original theatrical versions of the Star Wars Trilogy and THX-1138. That'll probably never happen though.
