Hi all!  I’m new here, and will certainly be back to have more intellectual discussions about (one of) my favorite films of all time, but for now, I wanted to pop in and let you all know (in case someone’s not tipped anyone off already):  Walmart has “The Exorcist: Extended Director’s Cut” dvd (not the Blu ray) in the $5 bargain bins!  At least here in Atlanta.  If you want to take advantage of picking up this awesome deal for you or some friends, head out and grab them up!  I couldn’t believe it was/is on sale for so cheap!  Hope this helps you all pick up some extra copies for friends as I did.

Welcome to Everything Exorcist, JSM.

The Exorcist for $5, is a bargain! I remember paying $50 for the first ever Exorcist DVD over 10 years ago.

I suspect they'd be happy with selling them in the bargain bin to make way for 40th Anniversary releases next year.

Thanks, Captain Howdy!  Glad to be here!  I think you're absolutely right.  They most likely are selling those copies to make room for the new release coming next year.  Still, being the classic it is (and having purchased it for so much more at various times over the years), I couldn't believe it's available at that price.  The hoarder in me took over, and I was picking up copies for friends, whether they want it or not!  You should have seen the face of the cashier.  I think I frightened her.  Lol!  I can't mimic her voice in print, obviously, but she was a very, VERY southern-speaking woman at a Walmart in the outskirts of Atlanta.  She looked at me like I was going to put a spell on her or something, and went (in her deep southern drawl), “I went to see this movie when it first came out.  Loooord, mah sister had me take a tranquilizer before I even went in!”  I laughed out loud!

Is it still able to be bought for $5?

[JSM]

Yes.  I picked up a couple today at a Walmart in Alpharetta, GA.  Good luck!

[ReganMacNeilfan]

Hey thank you. 😉

[JSM]

No problem, Regan 88!  You might better hurry, though:  They're getting harder and harder to find.  Amazon had them for $5 a couple weeks ago, too, but they're back up to $10.  Walmarts around here seem to be running pretty low, but every now and then you'll strike gold.  Head out to the suburbs of wherever you are…places where there are a lot of conservatives.  LOL!  I've found more copies in those places.

Shockingly enough I got a copy for $4.82 at Warner Brothers online store. 😀

[JSM]

That's awesome!  They always pull the “Sale” signs down when I go in!  LOL!  I just went to wbonline and it's $13.99!  Good for you!!

Woah! Really?! Gonna have to go look now. Lol and thanks. I so need to watch again! 😀

[JSM]

Not only does amazon have it for $3.99 today, Best Buy does, too!  The 40th Anniversary edition must be coming out soon.  I've never seen a classic movie go for so cheap in my life!

I got the 25 anniversary one for $5. 😀
