The Illustrated 3D DVD List

This list is a supplement to The Illustrated 3D Movie List and lists 3D DVDs (and VHS) that are commercially available. In addition to listing 3D movies that are available on 3D DVD, it also lists other 3D titles available on DVD or VHS that are advertised as being "3D" - but not exhibited commercially in cinemas. Hint: not everything with "3D" on the cover is necessarily "Real 3D". Please read the comments - some of these titles are NOT a recommended buy. Some of the comments are based on user reviews.

Listed here are field-sequential, anaglyph, pulfrich (viewed with glasses which have one darkened lens and one clear lens), and 2D to 3D converted titles. Some titles are shot for video release only (direct to video).

Please note that I don't sell these DVDs. The buy links will take you to various commercial providers, including Amazon.
