Already have Arrow's excellent version of "Sisters", on the fence about "Shampoo", think "The Princess Bride" is overrated, but all-in for "The Naked Prey".
I think Relative Edsel was released on LaserDisc but in the wrong aspect ratio, and with 5.1 sound when EVERYONE knows it was originally released in mono.
