Mystery Classics 50 Movie Pack - 12-DVD Set (DVD)

Do not let the 50 movies discourage you from buying them. It is a purchase well worth making. I am enjoying each movie. Have not seen them all as of yet but will save some for the winter months when stuck in the house. Definitely recommend the purchase.

I have had this collection for over a year now and still love watching these old movies - nothing else like 'em. Great fun when I have a movie weekend with my grown children. It's fun to see all of the drama. These are great classics!

50 old mysteries for less than $15.00 is a good deal. However, most of them are unwatchable. Sound tracks are poor, they weren't filmed that well in the first place, and, despite nostalgaic warm feelings for "Bulldog Drummond," "Mr. Moto," Boris Karlof mysteries, etc., the stories are pretty lame and just don't make it. An occasional Edward G. Robinson and John Garfield Movie had some appeal. Orson Welles' "The Stranger" was very good. And some of the original Basil Rathbone "Sherlock Holmes" films were fun (if you're a fan). But out of the 50, lucky if you find 10-15 you can watch all the way through.

I purchased this set for one of my husband's Christmas gifts, and have been benefitting from it ever since! We have watched 4 of the movies so far, and although one had poor sound, they are very engaging and fun to watch. For old time movie buffs, this collection is a great way to fill your library with some wonderful, hard to find films.... not all first rate, but certainly a bargain. Note that they are not all full length films - several are short (60 - 70 minutes) but the collection is still worth purchasing, even if just for the several really great gems!
