10 Movies Stuck On DVD Worth Watching (2024) 

Definitely, but they shouldn't polish it up too much.

Yeah it does!

Agreed 👍

I forgot about that 2pk no US stand alone Blu-ray, other countries got one we didn’t for some reason.

Ruthless People is great it’s one of those hard R films I don’t know how I watched as a kid. Stakeout is fantastic I think it still holds up. Thanks for watching!

Oh man I forgot all about that I remember that didn’t pick it up bc not a fan of 2 movies one disc. Moving did that years ago the dvd quickly went out of print and the release was a double pack. Thank you.

Welcome aboard! Glad you enjoyed it! I put out new stuff weekly and appreciate the comments I try and respond to everyone one of them. Thanks for watching friend.

That’s a great one we watch a few times each summer. I didn’t include it this time because I mentioned last year, but it’s on an upcoming list for sure 👍

I can see why it’s so funny.

Yeah it is! Thanks for commenting. Did you have one that should’ve been on the list?

You should! Thanks for watching brother

Awesome! Thank you!

All good movies I wish I had the VHS almost got a Ruthless People Betamax from eBay.

Thank you for the feedback I have over 2600 movies stay tuned plenty of recommendations coming.

I’ve never seen that one I’ll be on the lookout.

@@80sMadeConsumer I'll be watching Funny Farm, never seen it.

Quiz show is a good one I remember watching it back in the 90s and forgot all about it I’d definitely try and find the dvd or vhs now. Disney is notorious for that owning everything and keeping it locked up they have a huge touchstone catalog that needs to see the light of day! Captain Ron, Down and out in Beverly Hills are at the top of my list.

Thanks, 😂 I caught that after someone asked what was number 5 I had to rewatch it.

Haha that’s great always “Debbie can’t come to the phone right now” 😂

80s and 90s was a great time to grow up.

That’s great news I’ve been importing for years and even have a region free player! Some times the art is hit or miss but in my experience the German Blu-ray’s have reversible art which gets rid of the age restriction label that’s on the front of most European releases. Just my luck I’ll get these and we will get a 4k release 😂thanks for letting me know!

It’s something seems like people either love it or never heard of it. Glad to finally watch it in HD.

Thank you brother love the feedback. She is great the acting is not but totally worth your time, great reference. VHS is my jam i have over 400 and still collecting recently I finally found a copy of Nightmare On Elm Street and a Blockbuster Halloween not the ones they rented but sold new, it has blockbuster presents on the cover. Good luck hunting so many hidden gems.

That gives me hope for a Blu-ray at some point. Other countries got Funny Farm and Ghost Dad Blu-ray’s but we didn’t.

It’s been years since I saw Eternal Sunshine.

Funny Farm is one that I’d like to see on the big screen. Awesome I love hearing about other collectors. I’d rather watch a movie than anything else, In my teenage years I was an early adopter of DVD all my friends were buying cars, and I was saving for a DVD player been collecting ever since. I agree with you older movies look better on older formats. I did upgrade to Blu-ray and now 4k but I also upgraded TVs so you do get a better picture, there is a bigger quality jump from dvd to 4k. But around 2016 I found a couple of CRT televisions and started collecting VHS again that turned me back onto collecting DVDs again and eventually found CEDs from the 80s. Still looking for some Laser disc and Betamax. I absolutely love old black and white movies on VHS on the old tube tv!

Thank you 🙏

@@80sMadeConsumeryou’re welcome

Good news! Vanishing Act is available on DVD (2007) and Blu-ray (2019). I agree, it's a great thriller.

@@jim6214 I'm talking about the 1985 film with Elliott Gould and Margot kidder it's only available on VHS 📼 I've only seen bootleg copy DVDs

@@bencool5823 I'm sorry, I got confused with another good movie starring Elliott Gould called Silent Partner, which came out in 1978. Apparently Vanishing Act is available from the UK, but only as a DVD-r. Don't give up hope.

@@jim6214 yes I have the silent partner 📼tell me something I don't know

I’d buy any old movie with Elliot Gould and I still collect VHS for that reason I have a few hidden Gems in my collection that stayed on VHS and are essentially lost at this point, not even available on streaming. I’ll have to keep a look out for Vanishing Act, thanks for the recommendation. I have Assault and Matrimony a tv movie from 1987 and Tilt a pinball movie starring Brooke Shields and Charles Durning from 1979.

It’s so good absolutely love it.

Hope you enjoy it’s a fun one.

You should Suicide Kings is probably your best bet. With your sense of humor can’t go wrong with Death to Smoochy.

Ruthless people is worth a rewatch. I started collecting Betamax tapes and was surprised that the copies of Ruthless people sealed with a suggested retail price sticker at 79.95 can’t imagine who would buy that back in the 80s. Was home video that expensive back then? I have a few other serious Robin Williams films What Dreams May Come, Insomnia, One Hour Photo, With Honors, Dead Poets Society, The Fisher King. But that one I’ve never heard of thank you for the recommendation I’ll be sure to look for that one.

@@80sMadeConsumer Yes, home video was quite expensive in those early days! I bought a VHS of Nightmare Castle starring Barbara Steele for 60 bucks. One Hour Photo is an incredible film!!

@@grey1951 I was kid back then and everyone we knew just rented, never put two and two together. Started buying movies when I was a teen they were usually 20-30 for DVD and less for VHS.

Oh man that’s good one I have the VHS.

Excellent usually I’m told I have an eclectic taste in movies and I respond with not every movie is for everyone but there is a movie for everyone.

Amazon women on the moon has a Blu-ray Kino Lorber put it out I thinks it’s like 15 bucks on Amazon. Pump up the volume is a good one that needs a BR. I haven’t seen the last one I’ll sure to check it out thank you.

@@80sMadeConsumer Thanks Just ordered the Amazon Women BR. Big Time hasn't had a proper release since it's VHS release. Occasionally it will pop up on Netflix or Prime for a few months but there are no other legitimate ways to get it.

@@savethezombies glad you got one. Such a great cast and a Joe Dante film you can’t go wrong.

Awesome thank you!

Haven’t watched powder in years a 4k would be great

Thanks so much!

@@80sMadeConsumeryou’re welcome

Thank you for the feedback. I figure most people know, or if interested could look it up. That’s not what I like talking about the focus is movies and just to mitigate any long negative comments.

Revenge of the Nerds is classic if take a Blu-ray box set in a heartbeat.

I forgot about that one, it never got a stand alone release in the US but I guess a few foreign countries got a stand alone Blu-ray.

That would be a great find. So many movies never left VHS that’s why I still collect them.

I think so too very underrated.

Those are some of my favorite movies.

It’s a mantra I’ve come to live by, in my real life I’m hit with I don’t like so and so bc of…. It doesn’t change the performance on screen. Thank you for watching.

@80sMadeConsumer and I'll keep on watching. Thank you very much! Subscribing too!!

I honestly forgot about that 2pk always assumed the quality wasn’t there, just found out there’s a German Blu-ray I may just have to import it. Your list is great can’t buy me love was on my list last year with Captain Ron. Just picked up One Night at McCools on VHS, and I’ve never heard of Beyond the Law I’ll have to keep an eye out thank you.

Still own Down Periscope on VHS. I’ve seen Freaked and Midnight Madness, I’ll have to go looking for the rest. Thank you for the recommendations.

@@80sMadeConsumer Enjoy the hunt :-) The one's you'll have the most trouble finding are The Further Adventures Of Tennessee Buck (directed and starring Keith David and is basically a jungle exploitation flick with a spectacular nekkid Kathy Shower in it) and The Brother From Another Planet (written and directed by John Sayles and starring Joe Morton as the mute alien in Harlem)

@@thelordofhellaz they honestly sound like something Kino might put out.

@@thelordofhellaz a few of these boutique labels will take suggestions on movies to try a get nothing is a guarantee but they send the info to their purchasing dept

It’s so good I preorders the Blu-ray immediately.

@80sMadeConsumer Didnt know it was coming till this vid. Cheers. Preordered.

Yes it would I guess some of them had Blu-ray releases in other countries. I wonder why we haven’t but other films are on their 2nd and 3rd release here.

Didn’t know that, we didn’t get it here in the US I’ll have to track one down. Thanks for letting me know.

You and me both 👍

Another Stakeout got a Mill Creek and Kino Blu-ray’s but. Blu-ray.com it says no release date and I couldn’t find any foreign releases either.

@@80sMadeConsumer that sucks! You could always get a blue marker and color the back of the dvd 📀

@@TheTrashStash 😂

I’ll have to try harder next time 😂

That might be a tough one being and tv movie but Vinegars syndrome puts out a lot of stuff like that.

After making this video I found out that several other countries outside the US got a Blu-ray release. Glad I have a region free Blu-ray player I’ll have to find a copy.

I’m the same way.

Lots of good movies from Touchstone.

Not every movie is for everyone but there is a movie for everyone.

Did not know that I figure stuff like that happened a lot.

Good find I think the Mill Creek Blu-ray of Another Stakeout for a few dollars at big lots and there is a kino Lorber Blu-ray. Not sure if Disney will ever put out the 1st one

Another Stakeout isn’t as good as the 1st and it has that original Mill Creek release but also a kino version. I may have to suck it up and grab the German release of Suicide Squad. It’s defiantly one that should get some boutique treatment. Getting lucky is everything you’ve come to expect from a Troma film not great but fun. I think you’re right I don’t remember ever seeing a standalone but truly needs a Blu-ray I’d even buy the whole collection box set just to have the 1st two. Death to Smoochy was a day one preorder looking forward to watching it on a large screen.

@@80sMadeConsumer you mean Suicide Kings? 🤣yea I may get it soon too, not in July though haha but I definitely want it on blu-ray

@@thelastmoviestanding damn autofill lol

Every decade has some really great ones

@@80sMadeConsumeryes it is

Great thing about movies you may not like it but someone will.

I messed up labeled suicide kings and Ruthless People both with #2 so 5 is Funny Farm.

Haha

I forgot about that 2pk 2 movies on one disc. It never got a standalone release.

@@80sMadeConsumer yes it did… warner released funny farm standalone in germany… at least that is where i got it from…

@@gregorpfueller6659 I’ll have to find a copy.

I forgot all about that 2pk how is the quality with 2 movies on one disc?

I got the set a while back for Spies like us. I don’t think I’ve checked out Funny Farm on Blu Ray yet. But I would imagine the picture quality being just ok having the 2 movies on one disc. Also funny farm is in widescreen on Blu ray, it was only in full screen on dvd.

Agreed 👍

I don’t think anybody has seen Spanish Judges.

@@80sMadeConsumer lol

All great picks, haven’t seen Threesome before I’ll have to check it out. Captain Ron and Idiocracy are day one purchases for me.

​@@80sMadeConsumer its a funny 90s comedy. The cool thing ia thomas newman does the soundtrack.

I think Basketball Diaries got a UK and a German Blu-ray we didn’t And Kids had an Australian Release from Umbrella entertainment. Not sure if you have a region free blu ray player or not but worth it just to get the Blu-rays we never did.
