Can't Rent This From Netflix Or Blockbuster....Grrr!!

Whenever a remake of a movie comes out (this, "The Stepfather") the original quickly goes to long or very long waits on Netflix/Blockbuster. This one is worse because you can't buy it until Nov 24. Used copies are going for mafia-like prices.

I think people rent, then keep/steal copies from Netflix/Blockbuster because it's not available for purchase. It's like, there's more demand because it can't be bought, so people keep them.

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of illegally downloading stuff. I'm the type of person who'd get caught/sued for it. Just not lucky that way.

Netflix now has it listed as "Unavailable," by the way.
