It looks like Kowalski had a good recent haul so here’s what I’ve got so far this year.
Has anyone else made any good physical media purchases?

I picked up The Inconfessable Orgies of Emmanuelle on blu ray today.
shareSo I was running out of space on my shelves, so I took 10 blu rays that I wasn’t planning on rewatching to The Beat Goes On to sell. They took 7 of them but were only doing store credit so I got $90 store credit. I then used the store credit to buy four blu rays. I got:
Texas Chainsaw Massacre (40th anniversary edition)
The Ring steelbook
Phantasm 1&2
Pet Sematary
All handsome additions to any film collection!
shareI got the DVD on EBay, but the two VHS tapes are thrift store finds and one of them is pretty pricey online.

That looks like a good find. I lucked out and found "Your vice is a locked room" at a used record shop here in LA a few years ago.
I don't think I've ever seen Knife of Ice, I should check that one out.
EDIT: Yes I have seen that one with the mute woman. That's a great movie!
“at a used record shop”
We also have a couple of vinyl shops here in the New Orleans area that always have obscure and cult films in various formats. It’s funny how the two often go hand in hand.
Knife of Ice - All of those Lenzi films with Carol Baker in them are pretty damn good. I love how he frequently used lots of the same actors over the years. Quite an underrated director.
Holy crap I lived in New Orleans for a year in the 2000's and I went to a few of those used record shops. I think there was one on Magazine Street somewhere. I bought the first two fast and furious movies and I think Torque too for like $5 lol.
I miss it there, best food in the USA hands down. I ended up moving back to Los Angeles a few months after Katrina hit or else I might still be living there.
I live in between New Orleans and Baton Rouge so I make the rounds at the vinyl shops of both cities every couple of months. My favorite shop in New Orleans has a huge 12” singles section, which is my favorite. You’re so right about the food.
shareI love Henry Silva, and this baby is getting watched tonight!!
