it seems for me that the dvd is now hard to find in stores. i have looked everywhere and i cant find it anywhere.i would guess my last resort is to look on ebay for it since i dnt use a credit card.

I found it in Borders, of all places. In their "Cult Classics" section. Good luck, it's a cool film.

The only reason for time is so that everything doesn't happen at once.

I can't remember exactly when I got it last year, but I remember that it was definitely from netflix. If you're a member you might want to check there.

It saw it in my local Suncoast for months and I finally picked it up this week. It called to me. You should be able to order it from your local video store, even a Blockbuster should be able to order it.

It's not that hard to find, but I did find it at several places. If it's not at www.amazon.com
OR
www.deepdiscountdvd.com
OR
Fry's Electronics I don't look for it really.

I found it in a place called CD PLUS. But that's the only place I've seen it.

You should be able to find it at Media Play for about eighteen dollars.

I just finished watching it, the interview with Lynn Lowry is great.

I just got back from blockbuster of all places, where I haven't been in months, and facing me on the previously viewed DVD counter is "The Crazies" for $9.99 CDN!!! I thought for a moment someone else was going to grab it but then I realized its Blockbuster and every idiot in there was probably renting the longest yard anyway. I rummaged around and I also picked up "Silent Running" for $4.99.

If you don't want to pay $27 for it you might give blockbuster a try because they normally drop the same movies around the same time, only problem is its unlikely they carried many copies of it anyway.

Your best bet would probably be either: Movie places (Rogers, Blockbuster, Jumbo, etc) and just look at their used movies. But, I got mine off the Chapters website, www.chapters.indigo.ca (not sure of the American or European site, if they exist). I paid $20 CDN, and, not quite just to get free shipping, I snagged a copy of Zombi, the ultra-rare (to me, at least) European cut of Dawn of the Dead.
