LaserDisc exclusives?

For LD reference, I suggest http://www.lddb.com

That is a really cool resource, by the way.  Thank you.

I'm building a wall of LDs to display in my apartment, so some of 'em I go for simply for the sleeve art. Escape From NY and Re-Animator are perfect examples.

I will admit that I have had a problem letting go some of my LDs, because the cover art was different than the DVD and it is a larger format - almost like a poster.

Most of those films tied up by Susan Hart have yet to see DVD release: I Was A Teenage Werewolf, I Was A Teenage Frankenstein in particular come to mind. Vampire Circus as far as I know hasn't been released on DVD, neither has Scream of Fear.

As Twins of Evil was issued on LD I'd be surprised if Vampire Circus, which has a R2 release and was put out on 8mm film, wasn't also issued on LD.  Even if only in Japan.

The cover art is the same (they just plaster a LD "behind" it to take up the extra space on the LD cover) and it is only the movie.

I really am waiting for a DVD of this one.  How much longer can they deny me my mutant, radioactive cat addiction?

i ripped it dvd but its still not the same, i want Uninvited and Terror vision.

Unfortunately, some of the LDs I've picked up were disappointing because they just plastered the VHS art on the cover. On the other hand, again, stuff like The Road Warrior went the extra mile and included original art, which is always great. Any recommendations from anyone for LDs with particularly cool sleeve art, Andrew especially? I've got room for another 20 or so sleeves up there!

Excellent, much thanks my friend. Are all of these full sleeve art, or do any of them suffer from the dreaded "VHS box art with a picture of a laserdisc behind it to fill in the empty space" images?

[Andrew]

Some (only a handful) look like they might not be full sleeve, but the empty space is a dark background so it blended in better.
