My Father's LaserDisc Movies Collection

Aside from music vinyl and CD albums, my father also collects and sell collectible LaserDisc movies and sells them to other collectors for a fair profit. Some of you might remember that the LaserDisc format preceded the Video Compact Discs (VCDs), DVDs and Blu-ray discs during the 1980s till the 1990s. But it was never able to beat the more popular VHS video analog tape format due to high costs of the video player and discs, and the inability to record TV programs or live recordings.

These LaserDisc movies shown here were mostly manufactured in Japan. And they are mostly prized by collectors. Even if English subtitles are not embedded in some. Because those made in Japan have the best quality and last longer than those manufactured in other countries. I hope some of them here could spark your interest.


Seven was a really shocking crime thriller. The ending will mess you up good.
