2 out of 5 stars Not as Good as I Remember.......2007-07-03

I had not seen these on TV for decades. I remember them as being the scariest movies while growing up. I was disappointed in the movies. They were not scary and were slow moving. I did like seeing the "head" Martian in the glass globe again in "Invaders" and the Crawling Eyes being burned.

I have seen "Them" over the years and that still holds up. I also like "Forbidden Planet," even with the low tech technology.

I guess I should have rented "The Crawling Eye" and "Invaders from Mars" before/instead of buying.

5 out of 5 stars great copies of great old movies.......2007-06-14

I liked both of these movies. This DVD set has excellent quality copies. This is well worth purchasing for old movie buffs

4 out of 5 stars Still SCARY After All These Years.......2006-08-27

I have fond memories of being terrified watching THE MILLION DOLLAR MOVIE on TV in NY. The Crawling Eye is great fun to see again....THEM was even better. Really a Classic. I thought Invader from Mars would be really eerie, but the print is very old and the night scenes are almost too dark to see. Still the alternate British ending was interesting. For anyone who grew up in the 50's and 60's this is a fun trip into the past.

4 out of 5 stars Blast From the Past.......2006-03-13

True, the special effects are minimal but the movies are better than I remembered. I watched The Crawling Eye for 4 days in a row years ago on the Million Dollar Movie and loved every minute of it (at 9 years old) and I was suprised to find it hadn't become too laughable like so many other Scifi movies from the 50's I've seen. True, the crawling eye itself is not Jurassic Park scarey but My 19 year old daughter even enjoyed it! Invaders from Mars was pretty good too, although the aliens are kinda corney it's still a fun movie to watch. And, the bonus British version was a great addition, in fact I liked the British ending much better!! All in all they're both good to watch on a Saturday night with some popcorn and remember how scared you were the first time you saw them, way back when.

5 out of 5 stars Great combo for kids.......2004-01-08

Invaders
Where is Col. Fielding when you need him?
Be sure to notice all the standard Sci-fi actors and even the Beaver's mother "Kelston's Secretary" (Barbara Billingsley). This movie was well done with just the right amount of spookiness and has a kid's perspective on what is happening. This is not a kid is smarter than his/her parents movie. There are lots of strange happenings and lots of tension. I will not go into the details as if you have not seen the movie it is more fun to be surprised.
Right from the beginning Little David MacLean sees a flying saucer land in the sandpit behind the house. He tells his parents. They being good parents check it out for him and naturally find nothing out of the ordinary. Maybe he had a nightmare or maybe the nightmare is just beginning as everyone starts acting strange and only David can sound the alarm. What would you do?

Crawling
The eyes have it
Based on a British TV series The Trollenberg Terror.
Don't lose your head over this one. Some people feel compelled to go there. Forest Tucker carries a gun. Why? Everyone gathers like an Agatha Christie movie. They have the standard 50's SCI/FI equipment. Yet your future is cloudy (radioactive cloudy). Do not watch this movie if you are in a cabin.
