House of the Dead -1978 John Ericson
I had absolutely no idea there was another HotD in the late 70s.

Miss Olivia, remember your post about HotD in the 70s? Check Posher's Signature!

lmao...wondering if your thought of that post is actually true!! :D



Sounds like a good collection though...

I have some of those movies on VHS but I ll get it anyway...at 15 bucks its a steal.

It's nothing like the recent House of the Dead. Just coincidentally similar names. It's actually a pretty decent flick, about a guy that shows up at a funeral home and is "introduced" to it's various residants, each with a story to tell. I enjoyed it.

EDIT - By the way, no prob about the recomendation man. They have another 50 horror set that's pretty good also, mostly older films. I have it as well and recently finished watching them all. Good set.

The Amazon link, incase anyone's interested.

I just checked it out on IMDB. The plot sounds interesting. (btw thats the answer to the "guess the movie" too) :p

Nice collection of classic movies too. I have some of em on VHS and DVD too, but at that price, its another steal alrite. There are some really fantastic titles in that collection.

I m gonna get it. Hows the movie quality on those DVDs bro?
12 double side DVDs, thats about 4 movies per DVD. Did they keep the feature quality good, or compromised it?

The quality isnt perfect by any means, but so far it's been good enough on all the ones Ive watched. Like old VHS quality. A little grainy, a little darker than it should be, a bit of static on the audio...nothing major. It does get really bad at the end of Oasis of the Zombies though, you can hardly see a thing. Otherwise, it's decent.

LOL I'm so glad it's not THAT Metamorphosis for your sake...
Maybe if they make HOTD 2 they'll take it back to a funkier day, where disco is King and polyester is the rage.....
I would love to see a zombie with an afro and bell bottoms.

I m gonna get both of em then. If its decent VHS quality, then its worth a buy. Thanks again bro.

Wow, did you actually like that movie? It's fun for a laugh, but more than once a decade's too much for me....

Wait...I misread your post. My comment about the quality was just about the "Chilling Classics" set.

As for the other 50 pack, the quality is really surprising. There might be a couple title where it isnt great, but Id say about 45 or so are near-DVD quality. Very clear, very crisp picture and sound. I was surprised.

I was asking about all the DVDs of both collections. And I m glad to know the features in em are of good quality. Definite buy for me now. I ll get em as soon as I can, once the preparations are over.
