I don't know why there are so few in the stores. :D On page 4 of this website the tattered rabbit has a beautiful bright red.

Here's Carley Mul's WebFabrics.net red fabrics:

I can report from experience what a reliable and helpful company they are. (For instance, I enjoy doing OBWs and the like. I can call and they will cheerfully check the length of a repeat on a fabric so I can calculate how much to order. I've also had help on choosing various fabrics to graduate across the depth or hues of a color. :-)

it is funny too because there are so many RED dyes available..I bought several yards of reds at the Dallas show because they are harder to find and I use them in a lot of holiday items!
when in doubt try sewbatiks.com, or batiksplus.com
sew batiks is my fave!

What's also interesting is that when there ARE reds, they are either pinky-purpley reds or orangey-peachy reds. VERY few true reds in batik. Must be a dye challenge (or cost).
