List of Criterion Collection LaserDiscs

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki

The following is a list of LaserDiscs released by The Criterion Collection from 1984 to 1998. These LaserDiscs are now out of print. Films that have appeared on Criterion Collection DVD releases are noted with their corresponding DVD spine numbers in the following list. However, not all Criterion LaserDiscs have been re-issued by Criterion on DVD, and not all Criterion DVD releases appeared on LaserDisc.

LaserDisc spine #003–005 also had simultaneous, now very rare VHS releases and at least one was also issued on Betamax.[1] They were later re-released on VHS along with new Janus Films titles through Home Vision Entertainment.[2]
