Some Bad News For Those Of Us Who Still Have Trouble With The Remote...

I am old-fashioned. No, not the I-used-to-pay-5-cents-for-a-hot-dog-and-it-was-HUGE old-fashioned. The kind that opens the door for his wife EVERY time. I am, however, also the guy who loves to have a library of books, and one of DVDs (I still have VHS tapes) to reference. In order to find some real gems, as in really bad yet good films, you have to search through countless $5 DVD bins to find The Devil's Rain. Or, you can go to Ebay and find someone selling it for $40( supply and demand sucks balls). Netflix has allowed many of us to see a few of these hilariously terrible films on DVD, with a few streaming selections. However, the streaming selection is mostly from 1995-present, where horror lost its camp value (with the exception of some SciFi original films), and are rarely revised with new, bad, old films. So to hear that I can no longer order DVDs in the near future was depressing to me, as it has become increasingly difficult to find these bad films, now that most video sales and rental stores have faltered. Gone are the bargain basements and sale racks full of goodies like The Beast Must Die, replaced by 500 copies of Crank II: High Voltage. Help me. Write Netflix and tell them what a terrible idea it is to cut out the elderly and the electronically handicapped. And the old schoolers. Help fight the death of the DVD, at least for a little while...
