Movie fans, here's your chance

Southgate's movie inventory up for sale

Forget the blockbusters. You can buy them anywhere. But if you're dying for that DVD of Angeline Jolie as a blonde in "Life or Something Like It," have I got good news for you.

The Northfield Senior Center has hundreds of videos on sale. There are a few DVDs left for $4 each. But if you still have a VHS player, you can choose from hundreds and hundreds of titles, including some really obscure stuff, for just two bucks each. We're talking quirky charmers, guilty pleasures, and so bad they're good classics. There also are some video games in the mix.

I took a couple of minutes to scan the DVD tables and found Jennifer Garner's "Elektra," Wes Craven's "Don't Look Down," as well as "Corpse  Bride," Chris Rock's "Never Scared" and the animated "Emperor's New Groove." If you missed "Species III" or "Yu Gi Oh" this is your chance.

Southgate Cinema dropped its video rental business a few weeks ago, donating its inventory to the Senior Center to sell as a fundraiser. 

Now, prices go down each day through Saturday, but of course, the selection is thinning fast. The center is open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday, til 5 p.m. Friday and from 8 a.m. to noon Saturday, when the sale ends.
