Phooey on all of them.

There's only one King of all Monsters...

And he has fiery nuclear breath.

When will we get a decent Godzilla disc???

Better yet, Godzilla vs Megalon!

This kinda sucks, actually. They think they can just shove multiple truly classic films onto a single disc?

Stupid bastards.

And the shame is, I'll probably buy this, since I don't own any of these on DVD.

I would definitely get the Frankenstein set, mostly for the first three films. If the price is right and the quality is good, I'm there.

Anybody else find it amusing that "Dracula" set headliner Bela Lugosi only appears in one of the five films?
