Yeah we have a Best Buy right up the street...But, I already have the first Basket Case...Thanks for the heads up, though...Someone may benefit from that information, and they may have some similar deals worth checking out

I just saw Trog for $3...Do any of you even know what that IS?.....I bet Crabapple does ;)

VHS or DVD

That was one of my first horror movie experiences.

It's VHS...I was just looking for the DVD...There's one that SAYS 'DVD 2006'...But it also says 'Out Of Stock'...

Trog is okay. But SCHLOCK is awesome!

I saw a Trog VHS for a buck at the discount store a couple of months ago, but I didn't grab it. Schlock (Landis' "spoof" of Trog) is really much more fun.

I'm not familiar with that one

SCHLOCK was young John Landis' first feature, from 1972, and he wore a missing link costume created by a young Rick Baker (and the suit/makeup still looks great today). Yes: Landis played the title character, the "Schlockthropus," and directed most of the movie WHILE WEARING THE COSTUME.

This movie is completely insane and very funny.

Baker appears in a cameo, playing a kid walking on crutches who gets pushed over by the ape creature.

And it is one of those movies that's so much fun, I would love to hand out free copies to everyone. But the cheapest DVD I can find for sale of this is like sixty dollars, and even on VHS it's pretty pricey, around twenty.

I had the Schlock DVD at one point...
Wish I could find a copy of See You Next Wednesday though...

Ah yes, Schlock, the banana monster. Haven't seen it in years. Does it have a current DVD release in the US or is it out of print? Certainly not available in Australia. I saw it probably in the early 80's on TV late one night. Never had the chance to see it again :(
