5 out of 5 stars 5 stars for content BUT..........2007-03-14

$62.99?!?!?!

I got Dressed To Kill, Terror By Night, The Secret Weapon and The Woman In Green in a two-DVD box set at Ross (of all places!) for under $10.00! And (naturally) no shipping!

5 out of 5 stars Sherlock Holmes Collection Vol. 1.......2006-03-15

Exactly what I was hoping for in old movie DVD's. Perfectly restored and just what I was looking for in movies to watch. This is a perfect mix of Holmes.

5 out of 5 stars Sherlock Holmes Collection Vol. 1.......2006-03-04

This is a wonderful collection of the best of the Sherlock Holmes movies, starring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce. There have been many actors cast in the roles of Homes and Watson, but Rathbone and Bruce are by far the best. These films are all updated to the 40's, when Britain was at war with Hitler, but they still are very intertaining. "The Voice of Terror," "The Secret Weapon," and "Holmes in Washington" all are concerned with Nazi spies and the war, and were obviously made as a moral booster for the wartime audiences. They are excellent examples of how to make movies that will entertain for many, many years and not just for the weekend boxoffice grab, the way most films are done today.

5 out of 5 stars Classic.......2006-02-25

If you're a Sherlock Holmes fan than this set is for you. I'm going to buy all of the sets.

5 out of 5 stars excellent, but a rip off.......2006-02-06

excellent dvd's, marvellous restauration, but you americans are getting ripped off like crazy here: this complete collection of 16 restaured films cost more than 200 dollars in the USA while the SAME collection with exactly the same extra's and the same restauration from the same company can be purchased, with a rather more appealing slip cover I'd say, in the UK for as little as 25 pounds(about 37 dollars) or at amazon uk for 34 pounds(about 51 dollars)... if that isn't a reason to buy a regionfree dvd player I don't know what is....don't let those money hungry purveyors of the seperate dvd regions get their way!!!
