In start films the number 1138 is used many times....
That number is a referece to George Lucas film THX 1138.

THX 1138 is definitely worth watching. It has a very unique style and look and any fan of Sci-Fi and future post apocalyptic futures should see it.
It contains ideas similar to many other books/films of this kind. 1984 and This Perfect Day especially. Using drugs to suppress emotion and sexual desire so that the population can be controlled, and also telling everyone that the outside world is destroyed and life cannot live there. Similar in many respects to Logan's Run, Parts: The Clonus Horror, Fahrenheit 451, and more recently The Island.
If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

For that price, you can't do anything wrong. Best is to get your DVDs from the US, as they're a lot cheaper than in the UK.

The other issue with ordering from the US is import duty. I don't know what the price level is there but you have to be careful as you may be charged by your customs for importing it from the US.
Also regarding THX 1138, you said it is the directors cut. This is actually not the same as the original version of the film. Lucas recently redid the whole film, re-editing it and redoing a lot of it and many fans have said it's not as good and he should have left it alone. I've not seen the directors cut so cannot comment.
