Movie collectors, and especially those who love the classics, will want to check out the Criterion Collection Black Friday sale at Amazon and Barnes & Noble before it’s gone. Dozens of Blu-rays, 4K Blu-rays, and DVDs in the Criterion Collection are available for 50% off until December 2. The Black Friday promotion kicked off earlier this month, but Amazon just restocked some notable deals that have been out of stock for weeks.

Along with individual films from beloved directors such as Akira Kurosawa and Guillermo del Toro, you’ll find numerous box sets for steeply discounted prices, including Bruce Lee’s Greatest Hits, Godzilla: The Showa-Era Film Collection, The Samurai Trilogy, and the newly released CC40

CC40 Collection isn’t the only box set featured in Amazon’s 50% off sale. Bruce Lee: His Greatest Hits is on sale for $62.48 (was $125). This Blu-ray box set comes with remastered editions of five Bruce Lee films in a display-worthy fold-out case. Bruce Lee fans will want to grab this deal soon, as it has been sold out for most of the month. As of November 20, the Bruce Lee five-film box set is in stock at Amazon. Once Upon a Time in China: The Complete Films is also on sale for $62.48 (was $125).

Meanwhile, Godzilla: The Showa-Era Collection is up for grabs for $112.48 (was $225). Just like with the Bruce Lee set, Amazon was sold out when the sale started on November 1, but it’s now in stock and eligible for the 50% discount for the first time.

Arguably Criterion’s best-looking release, this Blu-ray collection includes high-definition remasters of the 15 classic Godzilla films released between 1954 and 1975. In addition to HD versions of 15 movies, the Showa-Era Collection has a series of archival interviews and some new ones, featurettes that pull back the curtain on the special effects techniques utilized in the movies, and the Japanese version of King Kong vs. Godzilla. The Godzilla Showa-Era Collection comes in oversized packaging with a fold-out case and a hardcover book with reflections by cinema scholars and exclusive new artwork.

Some new releases beyond the CC40 Collection are eligible for the discount, too. For example, Akira Kurosawa’s legendary action film Seven Samurai just released on 4K Blu-ray on November 12, but you can already save $30. It’s one of numerous films from the iconic Japanese filmmaker featured in the promotion.

You can also save 50% on upcoming releases like Guillermo del Toro’s The Shape of Water which joins the Criterion Collection in 4K on November 26. Multiple of del Toro’s other Criterion Collection films are included in the promotion, too. Blu-ray editions of Pan’s Labyrinth, The Devil’s Backbone, and Cronos are available for $20 each, down from $40. The director’s imaginative retelling of Pinocchio is discounted to $15, but this is the DVD version–the 4K edition sold out.

Other notable deals include award-winning movies such as The Silence of the Lambs and Parasite for $20 each (normally $40). Parasite earned a long list of accolades, and it became the first foreign language film to win the Oscar for Best Motion Picture. The dark comedy examines wealth inequality before taking a dramatic turn to become something much more sinister.

Speaking of firsts and Best Picture, The Silence of the Lambs was the first horror film to win Best Picture. The legendary psychological horror movie stars Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lector and Jodie Foster as Clarice Starling. Hopkins won Best Actor, while Foster took home the Oscar for Best Actress. The film’s director, Jonathan Demme, won Best Director, and Ted Tally nabbed Best Adapted Screenplay. The movie is based on Thomas Harris’ novel of the same name.

Here’s a look at some of our other favorite films on sale during the Black Friday Criterion Collection promotion. These discounts disappear on December 2, so cash in while you can.
