I want to buy a film. How do I find out if it's it available on video?
We do not catalog information about VHS tapes, and we do not sell
anything ourselves. The Internet Movie Database is part of the Amazon.com group of companies:
we simply link to their catalog as a service to our visitors but all sales
of VHS tapes, DVDs, music, books, and more are handled directly by Amazon.com.
We do not attempt to accurately catalog books and other merchandise, but
rely on Amazon.com's search function.
Because our focus is not sales, we list every film/TV show we are
aware of that meet our criteria for inclusion, whether or not they
are available on video or ever have been; in some cases, there are
no known copies remaining in any form. This is not unlike an
encyclopedia that lists animal species that are extinct.
There are two ways to determine whether a particular title is available on video at Amazon.com:
- Search for the movie title at IMDb and look for the "Buy it at Amazon" button in the box on the left-hand side of the page. If the button is active, click on it to see products available at Amazon.com related to that title. The same column may also feature a 'Merchandising Links' entry further down the page (under the 'Other Info' heading) which will link to products available on other Amazon.com international sites.
- Visit the Amazon.com video store home page for your country of residence and search directly:
USA
Canada
UK
Germany
France
Japan
