I am not sure how rare it actually is, but the Straw Dogs release from Criterion I own was only available for a limited time, I believe.

I've got a copy of that somewhere in the 1100's.

Another rare one is The Woman in Black apparently.

I have the unissued Dark Sky Films version of KILL BABY KILL, with the Tim Lucas commentary, sent to me for review purposes.  But then their licensor got sued on the rights and ended up losing the rights, and as a result, so did Dark Sky, and the whole thing was yanked before street date.  So it'll probably never be issued properly.  Oddly, it doesn't seem to be pulling very big prices on eBay (not that I mean to sell it).
