All these are public domain movies with low production values. It’s basically the same stuff that was shown on Mystery Science Theater 3000 but without the comments. I happen to like a cheesy movie now and again and am quite able to yell out my own quips with my friends. However, the DVD’s are bad. By bad I mean that they blur out in digital green squares. Others in the set were watched once then not able to be watched again. The DVD player tried to index to the menu for a minute and ejected it. They remind me of the old Goodtimes videos of the 80′s that had tracking lines no matter where you set the dial. These could be a fun bit of cheesy movie value but it’s lost by the poor quality DVD’s that wear out quickly and become unreadable.

Some great, a few good, alot awfull. There have to be at least enough good ones in here to make it worth the price for anyone.

I just got mine in the mail. I haven’t view any of the movies yet. I have several of the 50 movie pack collections and hundreds of other individual monster and science fiction movies and collections. Out of the entire 50 movies I received in this collection only three of them did I already have…and most of the rest I never heard of!

What a buy!

BYE!

First, read the list of titles carefully. This compilation, with a few exceptions, really scrapes the bottom of the barrel. Even for those of us who enjoy the occasional home matinee populated by aliens with zippers in their skin and earthly heroes wearing plastic fishbowls on their heads may find that many of these films are just too cheesy to be tolerable.

Annoyingly, the compilers have done–so far as I can tell–absolutely no clean up on either the visuals or the sound. As a result, some of the films are scratched, dirty, and difficult to understand.

All in all, a disappointing collection. Dirt cheap, though. Caveat emptor.

Let me start by saying I LOVE old bad movies. Plan 9? Gold! These movies…are horrible! Boring, poor quality, poor lighting, poor acting (not the good kind of poor acting, just plain bad!). Of the 50 movies I found at most 4 that were worth watching, and even some of those were bad at best. I have other of the “50 movies” and this is the worst of them. Save your money, really.
