Customer Reviews:

Great Mix of B Movies!.......2007-06-28

Have a slow Saturday afternoon? Pop in one of these DVD's and go back to your childhood. This is a great collection (for a great price)of old movies that you would probably never see on TV. Some are better than others, and some are not worth much, but all-in-all, I find watching these to be relaxing and fun. And isn't that what it's all about anyway?

Not bad for the money.......2007-06-08

While this pack isn't worthy of a 5 star rating, it's still a good value. Some of these titles I had purchased earlier at a cost of $5.00 a piece. The quality is not great, but they're watchable.

From or To.......2007-05-15

Clearly escape, but as Isaac Asimov said, 'There is escape from and escape to'.
These mostly awkward speculations do take you imaginative places. What more could you ask?

50 Flicks of Public Domain Goodness.......2007-04-27

SciFi Classics is a collection of 50 movies that have only one thing in common: they are all public domain and as such it is possible for them to be presented in highly affordable collections. I paid $21.99 for my set and that comes down to about 44 cents per movie. The way that movie tickets cost nowadays, you really cannot complain about this collection.

Anyways, here is how I rate the movies in SciFi Classics:

Good:

The Amazing Transparent Man
Assignment: Outer Space
Hercules and the Tyrants of Babylon
Hercules Unchained
Killers From Space
Laser Mission
Lost Jungle
Phantom From Space
The Phantom Planet
Planet Outlaws
Queen of the Amazons
The Wasp Woman
Zontar, the Thing From Venus

Average:

Colossus and the Amazon Queen
First Spaceship On Venus
Horrors of Spider Island
Robot Monster
She Gods of Shark Reef
They Came From Beyond Space
Voyage to the Prehistoric Planet
Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women
Warning From Space
White Pongo

Bad:

The Astral Factor
Attack of the Monsters
The Atomic Brain
Battle of the Worlds
Blood Tide
The Brain Machine
Bride of the Gorilla
Cosmos: War of the Planets
Crash of the Moons
Destroy All Planets
Devil of the Desert vs. the Son of Hercules
Eegah
The Galaxy Invader
Gammera, the Invincible
Hercules Against The Moonmen
Hercules and the Captive Women
The Incredible Petrified World
King of Kong Island
Menace From Outer Space
Mesa of Lost Women
Prehistoric Women
Santa Claus Conquers The Martians
The Snow Creature
Son of Hercules
Teenagers From Outer Space
Unknown World
The Wild Women of Wongo

All in all, an incredible bargain.

On a 1 to 10 scale, this collection is rated: 3.2.......2007-03-31

SCI-FI CLASSICS COLLECTION is an eclectic mix of hokey science fiction and fantasy, with a sprinkling of action films (of the sandals and swords variety). One commonality here is the typically low score all fifty of these "classics" got from users of a film-related website. On a one to ten scale, the current average for this set calculates out to: 3.2.

Scoring is relevant only to plot, editing, effects, etc, and doesn't consider stock condition or audio/video transfer quality. This multi-pack may only be for the most ardent of sci-fi/fantasy fans, as well as lovers of well-aged cheese.
