I also have a lot of Holy Grails: Sleepy Hallow, The Bone Collector, Bringing Out the Dead. One that is never mentioned is the original Willard. It is still not available on dvd. Not sure why. Rights issues? I consider it very valuable. I also consider the boxed set of It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, and They Shoot Horses, Don't They? very valuable. The quality and features on both are outstanding, and Mad World has most of the cut footage put back in. The one I have my eye on now is U-571. Currently, someone has a used copy on here available for $1500. No, I don't think so. A sealed copy would be what I would want, but God knows how much it will be!

elahrairrah wrote: Not really rare, but I can rarely find it cheap, but the Japanese box set of George Romero's Dawn of the Dead under the title Zombie: Perfect Collection. Sure I own it several times over on LD, DVD, VHS, but that's the set to get! Maybe even the Japanese release Dawn of the Dead: The Conclusion just to be a completist! I feel you; I want ALL of Romero's zombie films on LD, DVD and BD!!

My big ones right now are The Knack: Live at Carnegie Hall, and Hall and Oates: The Liberty Concert . Runner-up would be the Dolby Digital/THX theatrical version of T2.
Not really rare or extremely expensive, I suppose....then again, I'm in it more for the material....my Holy Grail LDs are the original Star Wars Trilogy in THX, which were the first titles I got, and the ones that got me hooked on the format.

How much did you pay for it ? You dont have do answer that if you dont want, its you personal information but it would be fun to know. As a holy grail that I am searching for it would at the moment prob, be this movie. Complete and good condition. As my last HG that I got is prob. be the Ilsa trilogy Box from Japan. Ilsa: Trilogy (Uncut) [FFL-008]

Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the poster belong to regular japanese release - I have that one aswell - while 2-disc set comes with film sprocket and insert? Nevertheless, I got mine from private collector and it was a closed deal so I'm not going onto the details but I believe the price was reasonable for both parties.

I would love to have it in my collection either way =) ilsa: yuo thats a bargain, I paid 100 euro and I am extremly happy to own it !
