Cronos availability? - DVDfile.com forum for DVD, Blu-Ray, and HD-DVD

MrMike · 10-14-2003, 05:47 PM

Did anybody find Cronos? Best Buy didn't have it, so doubt Circuit City would. Just wondering if anyone else found it at different stores.

I hope it's not that difficult to find, and not too expensive once found. I'm looking forward to this movie far more than I'm looking forward to the Matrix: Reloaded.

I purchased my copy online. Here's a nice review of the new DVD:

My walmart had it.

The problem with the subtitles is a bit of a pain though. They show the captions in the regular subtitles, even though they are supposed to only be shown for the hearing impaired version.

I went to DVDPlanet/Best Buy/Frys and they didn't have "The Black Scorpion or Capt. Cronos."

Of all places I guess I'll have to check out Wal-Mart.

Just get it at Wal-Mart; you'll find it in the $5.88 bin along with Black Sunday, Fatal Attraction, and Frankenstein & The Monster From Hell.

Really? Damn, the disc is a nice little special edition and well worth a full retail price just to hear Guillermo Del Toro say stuff like "One of my old movies had a giant killer fetus in it. You're okay with me if you have a giant killer fetus in your movie."

Wow, I knew about Black Sunday (which can also be had online at deepdiscountdvd.com for just over $5,) but Cronos SE too at Walmart for $5??!!? That's a great price, and a must-buy in my book.

Great little flick.

How in the hell can a DVD that was just released and retails at $19.95 be in the $5.88 bargain bin at Wal-Mart? Is this some sort of confusion with another title, or was this disc accidentally thrown in the bin? I just find this really hard to believe.

sparky · 10-25-2003, 03:18 PM

Just went to Wal-mart and they do have a huge bin with hundreds of DVD's in it for $5.88.

None of those titles were there, just alot of crap...who's gonna dig thru all that stuff anyway?

I did pick up "The Parent Trap and Treasure Island" for $14.99 each.

Umm, I think he is taliking about Del Toro's Cronos not Hammer's Captain Cronos. Del Toro's Cronos is NOT $5.88 at Walmart, but Captain Cronos is. I don't think that Walmart ever carries Del Toro's Cronos.
