An obsessive attempt to document results of NTSC formatted VHS and laserdisc releases that contain "coming attractions"
(i.e. trailers, teasers, TV spots, video spots, promos) which may or may not prove significant.
Basically, an effort to create a "trailer search" resource.

* Rarity, as teaser is not available on DVD, only the release trailer is.

** Rarity, as this is the original New World trailer. New World was meant to distribute the film, but fell into bankruptcy, thereby shifting ownership of this property to Trimark Pictures (a division of Vidmark Entertainment).

*** Trailer(s) following main feature.

Pretty funny how the Lost Highway video spot appears on a tape from Evergreen when Lost Highway was actually released on video by Polygram, although both The Funeral and Lost Highway were released theatrically by October Films.

I also used to own Buy & Cell on VHS, but on my copy, the trailer for Warlock appeared first, and The Punisher (Dolph Lundgren) last.

The Punisher was also going to actually be released by New World as well, but of course, New World went bankrupt, and the rights for that one were sold to Live Entertainment. Though New World did keep some foreign rights to the film.
