For years Mill Creek has been the place to go to find classic and forgotten films and bragain prices.

Over the years a number of films that now rank as some of my favorites I've discovered by buying a pack of 50 or so movies from Mill Creek and going throuhg them. Lots of gems in there at prices you simply won't find anywhere else.
