VIDEOCASSETTES • HORROR & SPLATTER • P — R

All videos are alphabetized by title. Most entries include title, year of production, director of film, key actors, a brief description, video label, style of packaging, and condition.

All videos play fine, with a minimum of dropouts or wear. As far as the condition of the studio boxes, I have graded them as I do other paper collectibles, using Overstreet's system. In the case of clamshells, I have graded only the insert, as the clamshell boxes themselves are easily replaceable and have no inherent collectible value (except in the rare case of printed clamshells). Unless otherwise noted, none of the videos listed contain sleeves or inserts cut down to fit a clamshell, as is often the case with chain video stores.

Styles & Dimensions of Packaging:

Studio Clamshell (Approximately 4¾" x 8" x 1¼")
