Why is Destroy All Monsters on DVD so expensive?

If you wait till the new 1 comes out there will probably be an influx of the old movies getting re-released to promote the franchise and you'll probably be able to get it cheaper

Do you want it on Blu-ray or DVD?

I need DVD

Godzilla Vs the Sea Monster, Son of Godzilla, Destroy All Monsters, Godzilla Vs Gigan, Godzilla Vs Mechagodzilla, and Godzilla 1985 are all insanly expensive on DVD. My copies are all on VHS. I got them for about 3 bucks each except DAM which I had to shell out $30 for a USED VHS of it, no less. ;~; Hopefully one day they'll all be re-released and more available.

Destroy All Monsters, both the ADV and Media Blasters versions, are out of print and very hard to find. The ADV version has been out of print for over 10 years and the Media Blasters version was halted by Toho for having special features that they didn't approve. So you're only going to find them for very expensive prices. Your best bet is eBay or keep looking for a used copy that is in your price range.

The good news is Media Blasters has (apparently) resolved their issues with Toho, so there's a chance they may re-release Destroy All Monsters in the future.

Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster, Son of Godzilla, Godzilla vs. Hedorah, Godzilla vs. Gigan and Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla are also out of print. Sony used to own the DVD rights to them, but decided to let them go. Now Toho has the rights back and some other American company will have to negociate with Toho if we ever want to see a re-release of those movies again.

Godzilla 1985 has some complicated rights issues that most people refer to as a black hole. An official DVD of the movie has never been released and it seems unlikely it will be released anytime soon.

Thanks for the info, Gman. Godzilla vs Hedorah is still available though, as a Korean import. 

That's Korea though... All region 1 versions are out of print.

IDK if you can find a normal priced DVD but if you just want to see a full movie just to google and just  type in (Destroy All Monsters Viooz) and it will bring up the full movie length link. BUT do not click on the download button, just go to the link and on the next page press play.

Thanks for all the info guys. I'll keep my hopes up.
