Share rare finds, online with your community. Not something that is shiny and new at Best Buy, but anything Halloween or horror related that isn't common but you found it and wanna give the rest of us a heads up! :
The dark night beckons. Bear us your soul, it whispers. Expose your wicked delights. Join the rest of us on the wind. The dark night beckons and we answer. Sailing into the shadows.

I once purchased the made for TV film The Midnight Hour for 7 dollars at DVDempires website. Then it went out of print and its value shot up. I sold it used for 150.00. Do I regret it? Then I didn't because I made a massive profit. But now considering it will cost you 200 or higher to get the DVD new online, I do regret it.

I said that to say this. Another made for TV horror film that scared the pee outta me when I was an 80's child was Dark Night of the Scarecrow. Now I believe that this will follow in the same footsteps as The Midnight Hour. So before it costs 200 dollars to buy it new when it becomes out of print...I share with you this link.

Hey nothing wrong with it. If someone can buy a DVD for 8.00 and sell it for 250.00 to someone else who hasn't looked hard enough for the item elsewhere, like me for instance, lol; then I say great.

Well ive ordered my new copy of the midnight hour. If I have it in hand and its legit, I will not be able to stop myself from laughing at <deleted> collectors buying the DVD for 250.00 off Amazon.com

Okay, a warningI received my copy of the Midnight Hour I ordered from one of the links above. Through atomic mall, a seller named forgottencinema sent me a NEAR perfect replication of the authentic disc.

Just a few problems

The sleeve was lesser quality paper, no gloss at all, and the surface of the disc is purple indicating DVD-R.
Now...
I am warning you all, but I'm showing them mercy by not reporting them elsewhere because if you want the actual DVD used its 150.00 and new its 250.00. This was a 15 dollar "nearly fooled me" pirated version. You're not getting the Midnight Hour to look as good as this does for 15 bucks UNLESS it is pirated.

Lesson learned.....you get what you pay for. You want an authentic copy of the now out of print film, you'd best be ready to cough up some real dough.

But thx for at least trying anyways, with the links.

Its also why I say get Dark Night of the Scarecrow quick before it too is out of print and costs you a couple hundred for authentic product.
