Here is another soon-to-be-released 50 movie pack from Mill Creek Entertainment.  Some of the movies in this set are included in other sets from Mill Creek.  But you can pick this up for about $17.00, so it's a bargain anyway!

Here are the titles included in this set (on 12 DVDs):

Mill Creek is notorious for having errors on these lists, so a couple of these titles may not be accurate.  But this should at least give you an idea of what to expect.

I'm glad to see CURSE OF THE HEADLESS HORSEMAN here.  I have it on another DVD from Something Weird and it is by far the worst movie I have ever seen!

Some of those titles look interesting. I see they've got some Lugosi in there. I own the Bowery at Midnight and my brother lent me The Phantom Creeps once, but I didn't ever get time to watch it (its about four hours long (it's a serial).

I'm sure you'll be letting us know about the quality after you start watching.

trek-geezer:

I suspect that the version of THE PHANTOM CREEPS that is included in this set is not the full 4 hour serial.  It is probably a version that they condensed into a 90 minute feature.

As for the quality, I have 6 or 7 of these 50 movie packs already and overall the quality has been better than I ever would have expected.

These packs can be amusing sometimes- and a bargain- but the one thing that annoys me about is how scattershot the selection of movies always is. I would say numbers 1 and 17 on this list really don't fit the overall theme it claims to be going for... and this is one of the better collections. I do have to say though that I love the movie trailers they sometimes put on these things.

You are right about that!  For instance the HORROR CLASSICS set has THE GORILLA in it, which is a comedy starring the Ritz Brothers.  The MARTIAL ARTS set has several blaxploitation movies in it (okay, there may be 1 or 2 martial arts fights in each of these blaxploitation movies, but I wouldn't classify them as martial arts films).  Also, they sometimes list the wrong movie titles on the box.  For instance, the DRIVE-IN MOVIE pack lists a movie called FIEND.  This movie is NOT inside the box.  However, the movie TWISTER'S REVENGE is in the box, but it is NOT listed on the box cover.  Plus, each of these sets usually contains 1 or more movies that are also in ANOTHER one of the sets.  For example, I have the movie SNOWBEAST (a TV movie starring Bo Svenson) in two different 50 movie packs.  But, for less than 40 cents per movie, how can you complain?

HI! I"m new around here...Yeah,I picked up a 50 Horror Classics and some don't qualify as Horror. Lke "Swamp Women"(1956) and some other mystery type films. But having junk like the Beast of Yucca Flats and Nightmare Castle in the same collection is pretty cool.  II would like to see a 50 Mexican Horror Classics set!!!! The Aztec Mummy , Santo, and Face of the Screaming Werewolf in one set!!!! Who needs LSD!?!?
