Last call for THE VINCENT PRICE COLLECTION

You might have noticed something funny going on with the first volume of THE VINCENT PRICE COLLECTION. The Blu-ray collection, released less than a year ago by Scream! Factory, is no longer available from Amazon ... but is currently being sold by third party vendors for outrageous prices.

A few minutes ago, Scream! Factory announced the collection has been discontinued because of rights issues. "Unfortunately we have lost our rights to put the films included in that set in a multi-film collection. What this means is that our VP COLLECTION will soon be going into an out-of-print status," it was announced at the Facebook page for Scream Factory.

The films included in this collection are THE PIT & THE PENDULUM, THE MASQUE OF THE RED DEATH, THE HAUNTED PALACE, THE FALL OF THE HOUSE OF USHER, THE ABOMINABLE DR. PHIBES and WITCHFINDER GENERAL.

While the online prices for the collection are soaring, you can still get it directly from the distributor for the original sticker price of $59.99. If you snooze, you lose. UPDATE: THE VINCENT PRICE COLLECTION is now SOLD OUT.

Note: These rights issue apparently don't affect VINCENT PRICE COLLECTION VOLUME II.
