Amazon

Online stores
One of the best places to find classic movies is Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk. Here you can easily enter the name of the movie in the search engine and find old scary movies or any other sci-fi classic that you are looking for.
Also, Amazon helps you to find similar films to the one that you previously purchased or are interested in.

Other websites

There are other websites that sell a whole range of classic horror movies. Rarehorrordvd.com offers affordable horror classics and has a lot of rare cult films on DVD. Nextag.com also helps you find great box sets.
Tip
It can be hard to find out what classic horror movies to start with. You should therefore find out what kind of horror film you like.
Since there are so many ultimate horror collections you can purchase, selecting one can be a bit confusing at first. Recommendations
When it comes to early horror, films featuring Boris Karloff or Bela Lugosi are a great place to start. The label Hammer Horror produced some of the best horror movies in later years. This label was the one to release movies such as Horror of Dracula with Christopher Lee. Sci-fi
In the 1950's and 60's the sci-fi genre really blossomed with the start of special effects. If you like sci fi, you may check out movies that came out during that particular period of time.

Movie magazines

Trivia
Some old horror movies are yet to be released on DVD. In fact, a lot of Horror DVDs and classic DVDs in general are only available in the United States.
It should be noted that these DVDs have a different region code and can therefore not be played on European DVD players. Final word
To find out which horror DVDs will be released, check out movie magazine Empire. They have a whole section called Rewind that lists the all old movies that were released on the market. Check out Empireonline.co.uk for old horror films.
