Best $13 I ever spent, period!!! |

I am a big fan of B-movies and this collection has some of the most notorious, and many, many other fun discoveries! I've had so much fun popping them in randomly after work, cracking a beer and having a bunch of laughs and adventures. The picture and sound are the exact same quality as you would get if you bought these films individually, so the value you get here is phenomenal. These are not Sci-fi classics on the order of "The Day the Earth Stood Still," my friends, these are classics of an entirely different order. |

even those who are into "MST 3000" material should avoid paying full price for this |

Not a lot here, folks. Some are okay, some are just bad. Real Film Buffs (tm) might get a kick out of seeing one-time big stars such as Claude Rains and Basil Rathbone at the nadirs of their respective careers; but really it's just a bore. At the other end of the career arc are folk such as Peter Lupus and Peter Graves, both of Mission Impossible. Only die-hard sci fans should even consider this collection, and even they ought to look for it on sale. Caution: no close captioning (apparently missing from the entire "50 Movie Pack" series). |

Just terrible |
Picture Quality is worst.
Most is bad, old, and infantile Movies, created with minimal budjet. |

good for a few laughs |

These movies are so very bad. Turn off the volume and make up your own dialogue - it'll probably be better than what's on. |

Could have been much better... |

With all the movies in their catalogue one has to wonder why Mill Creek couldn't have compiled a better sci-fi collection than this. Several titles do not make the grade as 'sci-fi', especially the Italian sword and sandal Hercules fantasies. Looking at the 'Nightmare Worlds' collection the opportunity existed to put together a pretty good set of genuine sci-fi flicks ranging from the silent era up to the 1960s when things began to change. Early "so bad it's good" B-grade sci-fi can be loads of fun. Unfortunately, a lot of what is here is just plain bad. At this price still worth having, but could have been much better. |
