Some of my selections, copied from a similar thread elsewhere . . .
Mr. Boogedy / Bride of Boogedy - Staples of my childhood, and my VHS copy of the first is long gone. Would love to revisit them again on DVD. With the first being only 40-something minutes and the second one 100-something, both could probably easily fit on a single disc even if they did a bare bones release, which would be better than nothing.
Avenging Force - One of my favorite revenge flicks and star Michael Dudikoff's best. There's a Region 2 DVD, but nothing still in the U.S.
Catch Me If You Can - Stephen Sommers' 1989 directing debut, about a teen hot rodder who convinces the class president to gamble on his illegal street races to raise money for their high school that's facing closure. I'm surprised this was never released post-The Mummy to cash-in on his success, like Disney did with The Adventures of Huck Finn and The Jungle Book.
Ghost Town - 1988 Charles Band production about a modern day sheriff trapped in a ghost town haunted by the spirits of an outlaw and his gang, whom he must battle to rescue an abducted girl and free the spirits of the townspeople held in limbo by the gang. The movie is actually just a Workprint that was taken from the director and dumped to VHS for release, so I'd like to see somebody like Anchor Bay pick it up and let the director finish it, if possible, for a DVD release.
The Good Old Boys - Tommy Lee Jones' directorial debut, a terrific 1995 telefilm for TNT about cowboys at the turn of the century.
Jekyll & Hyde - 1990 TV movie starring Michael Caine. I remember enjoying it at the time and would like to see it again.
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow - 1980 TV movie starring Jeff Goldblum as Ichabod Crane. My dad and I were just talking about this version last night. I haven't seen it in so long, but I remember watching it yearly when I was a kid.
The Race for the Double Helix - 1987 TV movie, also starring Goldblum, about the race to find the structure of DNA. I only saw it in my high school Biology class and really liked it.
For TV shows, I'd like to have The Wonder Years (no chance with all the music rights issues, but a guy can dream), Pointman, Time Trax, Season 2 of L.A. Heat, and the remaining episodes of ExoSquad.

Frank Perry's DOC is out on DVD by the way, but I'm still waiting for LAST SUMMER, DIARY OF A MAD HOUSEWIFE, and MAN ON A SWING.

Don't forget Perry's "Ladybug, Ladybug" (1963), "Play It As It Lays" (1972), "Monsignor" (1982), and "Compromising Positions" (1985).
