A classic film released in the 1990s could make you an absolute fortune.

Having a DVD collection isn’t a rarity for most households, but did you know some could be making you a pretty penny?

It’s crazy to think that not too long ago DVDs were the only way we consumed films.

And due to the decreasing use of DVDs, the price of some collectibles have skyrocketed.

Ryan Toomey, editor of Film Geek, has revealed which ones fetch the most cash.

The first being the 1994 collectors edition of the crime and thriller movie, Pulp Fiction.

Toomey told the Sun: “Particularly because of its unique aesthetic appeal and the enhanced viewing experience it offers via the addition of behind-the-scenes footage and other content."

Pulp Fiction was released in 1994.
Miramax.

The movie has a 92 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and is hugely popular with film fans and critics.

It won the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay in 1995 alongside copious amounts of other recognition.

So how much could this film land you if you whacked it on eBay?

Well, specifically the 15th anniversary Limited Edition Collector's Briefcase can fetch the big bucks.

The collector’s edition goes for around £150, with listings for that price currently open on the resale site.

But this isn’t the only flick that will make you some money.

The Evil Dead (Book of the Dead edition) - £130

Given that the cover for this edition is particularly creative, it's easy to see why it would be sought after by collectors.

Toomey said: "The creativity and thought put into the packaging of this edition make it a standout piece for collectors, especially those who appreciate film memorabilia that goes beyond the standard DVD case."

Alien Quadrilogy (25th anniversary edition) - £250

But they'll surely hear fans scrambling to get their hands on this 25th anniversary set of the four Alien movies.

Given that it's got nine DVDs and is presented in the head of a xenomorph, it's easy to see why sci-fi fans would be willing to pay the big bucks for this one.

National Treasure (presidential election) - £173

Nicolas Cage's 2004 Disney hit is a treasure all on its own, with fans searching high and low for this coveted piece.

Toomey explained: "Instead of a normal hardshell DVD case, the DVDs are hidden in a replica of the President’s secret book featured in the sequel, which is packed with fun tidbits and immense detail as shown by one lucky owner."

The Real Ghostbusters Complete Collection - £750

I ain't afraid of no ghosts - but that price does frighten me a little bit.

This DVD set of the animated series is going for a bone-chilling £750.

The most elusive of all is the 2008 version which is housed in a mock firehouse, based on the lair in which the Ghostbusters operated from.
