This is not a bad deal at all -- buy 2 get 1 free ($5.99 each). This only applies apparently to Tuesday, 10/25:

A few decent titles:
COPLAND Director's Cut
ARACHNOPHOBIA
BELOW
HIGHLANDER ENDGAME (no good, but this is the 2-disc with both versions)
IRON WILL
JUDGE DREDD
LOVE'S LABOUR LOST (Alicia Silverstone sings)!
NIGHT CROSSING
ROBINSON CRUSOE (Pierce Brosnan; apparently the cut 91 min version)
THE ROCK
and a few others!

Wow, usually lists like that scrape the bottom of the barrel (and this one does a little) but you've got some GEMS in there:

25TH HOUR
A CIVIL ACTION
THE INSIDER
FRESH
BELOW

Thanks for the link!

Mike,
Aaah I forgot THE INSIDER! Absolute must-have.

This is a definite good deal. You can find some of those titles in the $5.99 "dump bin" at Walmart but some of them aren't in there -- plus you save the indignity of a) going into Walmart and b) spending time going through that bin, looking for something actually worth $5

Man, that's a sad, sad thing. Think about the millions of dollars and endless hours of manpower it takes to actually produce a film. To think such a product can be reduced to obscurity in a $5 bargain bin at Wal-Mart is just, wow, shudder to think. I guess when you're a line producer on ANGELS IN THE ENDZONE you have to make your peace with it.

LOL. I've actually found a few decent titles in there over the months -- a ton of Warner Clint Eastwood Collection discs (which seem to have disappeared now), plus THE SAINT (hey it's got Elisabeth Shue and a nice Graeme Revell score) and the Special Edition of THE CRAFT (Fairuza Balk whatever happened to you?).

Of course, for every 1 of those there are tons of MOLL FLANDERS (lol) and countless other junk studio productions.
