Oh my God this is beyond pathetic!

These retards have to actually ask people to cover their movie in the press. How sad is that? Wow. Guess they wore out the Haig meal ticket.

"We are representing the film Little Big Top (premiers on Halloween) and are seeking press for our clients."

How freakin sad is that?!? "Um, hi, um, like nobody cares about us, so um, could you, like, talk about our movie and stuff?" Unbelievable.

I'm just glad I got to see this before it turned into a direct to video job with a homemade cover. I can't even imagine how Sid Haig feels being photoshopped to look like a freakin bobblehead! At least the other two guys look human!

Not bashing the movie here, just the moron squad behind it. See the movie, if for only Haig and the Office Space guy's acting. They're the only real actors in it. The blonde is pretty good, but that's about it. Fortunately since Sid Haig is the lead he's in the whole thing and makes it worth watching. But man, these people need some classes in movie production!

It is pretty sad, but it seems like it's getting some press now. I've seen some great reviews and some scathing ones, but I'll just see it myself when it comes out Tuesday.
I would have liked to see this on the big screen, but after waiting for so long I'll take what I can get, so home video it is.

Looks like we'll all have to wait a while longer.

I still can't find it anywhere and it supposedly came out yesterday. Amazon still says out of stock, but there's a seller on there who's selling a used copy. So, where the hell did they get it? And why do the rest of us have to keep getting jerked around?

I just checked their own website and they have a list of online stores that they say "Little Big Top available on DVD from these retailers" and none of them have it. They all say it's out of stock or backordered. So I'm guessing we got boned again. Thanks guys.

I can't find it anywhere either. Way to go, pros.

A few more sellers on Amazon have it. I might just grab one, since they're new. I have to wonder where these people are coming by their copies though. Something smells fishy about it all. Maybe the sellers are really the producers or their friends? It's all just too weird.

Seriously! I just looked at Amazon too, and there are 5 people selling this DVD independently, but none of the online retailers they list have it in stock! WTF? Of course, one of the sellers just happens to be in Indiana, where this was made, and is selling it as a "collectible" for the highest price. I think there might be some truth to your theory, Hantise. Sucks that people have to be that way, but I guess once they've screwed the fans who actually want to buy this thing, I guess not much else matters to them.
All I know is I'm waiting for Sid Haig's website to get it so I can buy an autographed copy. That is, if the producers ever let him have it! The way this movie has been handled is beyond retarded, and they have a lot of cleanup to do if they ever want anyone to see them as anything but incompetant fools with their heads up their own asses.

Interesting. I just looked at it too. The seller in Indiana now has two copies up for sale. Shady dealings here. It's like they're trying to make back some money they lost before anyone else can sell the DVD. I'm about to say F it all but I'm a loyal fan to the lead actor and won't let other people's idiocy affect that. I think I'll wait too. At least we know with Sid Haig's site we're getting an honest deal. And an autograph!
