Where can I get hold of these movies? most of them seem to be quite rare and I was wondering if there was a internet site or shop chain that I may be able to order them from?

There's always Ebay, Dave...  That's where I
found my copies of "Return To Frogtown" and
"Overdrawn at the Memory Bank" (are you
jealous, folks?)

Ha!

I got my copy of Hell comes to Frogtown off of tv!

Hell comes to Frogtown is available on dvd from Anchor Bay.

If you're willing to buy, I'd suggest scouting out the used section at your local mom & pop video stores. The first stuff they weed out are the obscure horror b-movies, which are what this site is built on.

two places that have been nearly my sole source of about 400 movies are skinnyguy.com and half.com (an ebay company)...both are used movie sources.

skinnyguy.com: extremely professional outfit with accurate conditions and fantastic pricing---tons of stuff for under 4.99. fast shipping. customer service rocks...they confirm purchases and let you know when they ship...usually right then...take credits cards of course and paypal...everything comes in sturdy boxes with bubble wrap...

half.com: it's ebay but without the auction...check out the 3.99 or less VHS and 7.99 or less DVDs...but like ebay, you're ordering from individual people so read the user ratings and shipping styles differ...UNLIKE ebay though, you buy through half.com---so no touching-bases e.mails or money orders etc. are required...which rocks...

thanks - I tried skinnyguy and half, but both seem to be US-only services, in terms of product and delivery. Because I live in England, its hard to find PAL videos on these kind of sites. Can anyone help?

You could always check the IMDb listings for any movies you're interested in; they tell whether the movies are in print in the US, England, or Germany.

Try Black Star and DC-DVD. Both excellent, DC can take a couple of weeks to deliver the obscure stuff,Black Star is 2 days max. They have loads of horror and B-movies, very impressive for a mainstream company.

I haven't read the other responses but where do you live?  The slection in big cities is bound to be better.  I'm in Boston and there's nothing I can't find for you for only about $3 a night

I live in London, and I found a kung fu shop that sold Crippled Masters but it shut down before I could order :-(.  I just need to find a shop or service that would know where to find a video not in mainstream circulation, and if possible I could order it as well. Thnx, dave
