    No, it came out in 2001. Blockbuster should have it.

    Or Bestbuy, you can get it there from time to time for about $5.00

    It's a true cult classic. It did bad in the theatres and then the DVD sold millions due to word of mouth, which then lead to a director's cut being released in theatres and a new DVD. A great movie, if you love the 80's you'll love this movie for the music and settings alone.

    Most of it was good. The teenage bs made me want to vomit. I guess I'm too old for the movie now.

    Went to Blockbuster to check and it turns out the store has been closed for 15 years. Get your facts straight.

    I have still never watched this movie.

    Not sure if it's a good decision or a bad one.

    Only seen it once but I enjoyed it, would fit right in with the current roster of A24 "elevated" horror movies.....

    There’s no other movie quite like it. Existential, sci-fi, very well made. Lots of little side stories to examine. Great cast.
