What's with this movie's price?

I went to amazon to look for this movie and it cost anywhere from $30 to $100 for the VHS copy? Are you kidding me? My dad bought this on VHS back when VHS's were still sold in stores for about ten bucks. There seems to be no official DVD release, every site I go to claiming to have the DVD is either suspicious or the DVD is listed as having no box which is in itself suspicious.

How I rate movies: 5 stars=F,6 stars=D,7 stars=C,8 stars=B,9 stars=A.1-4 stars are very bad.

I bought it on VHS for about $3, which is much more than I usually pay for movies but I had been seeking this for years.

This is a relatively obscure film, but it's not impossible to find for those with the patience and the access to a decent thrift store. It's certainly worth paying a premium price for – but I would never pay more than $7 or $8 for a movie. Beware the merchants of the Internet.

You might want to check Amazon again; they're offering "Cold Turkey" as a burn-on-demand dvd for about $20.

Yeah, they're dead, they're--all messed up.
