I bought my VHS copy from Robin's Bookstore in San Marcos in the early Eighties, for $70. In 2020 dollars, that's about $170. I think that proves my dedicated fanaticism adequately. I had to think long and hard before laying out that kind of money. It wasn't the best movie it could have been, but it was Tolkien, dammit, and I had to have it. It certainly has great moments, and is part of the context of my youth.
