The collections include: The Screaming Skull and The Giant Leeches, The Giant Gila Monster and The Wasp Woman, and I Bury the Living and The Hand. I enjoy these films quite a lot.
I've heard of those!

I've seen of those except Wasp woman and The Hand.

I bury the Living is an excellent film. The Have gun Will Travel guy gives a great performance. I think it would be really wild to watch them in Drive-In mode. I'm going to add these to my 2BUY list. Thanks for mentioning them.

Re: Whats the last TV DVD you bought


Scott, what did you watch?


$2.50 each at Fred's Discount Store

A Mighty Wind. (Watched it last night. Not quite Spinal Tap, it falls flat in the middle for 40 mins then rights itself at the end...worth what I paid)
Anchor Bay's Incredible Hulk double feature with Bixby/Ferigno. A dollar and a quarter per film.

I think I'm winning the contest on bargains.

Radioman,

I was going to watch I Bury the Living, and an episode of Lost. I even had the discs in my hand. But when I got downstairs, I checked to see if Monk was on, and it was. So I watched the first part of a two-part season-ending episode of Monk, and then I watched one of the best episodes of Psych ever.

Another day I will watch some of those great Drive-In classics.

It happens. I'm looking at the clock and it's 4PM!! I'm like, What the hell did I do all day?!!

I watched Surivor online (it's fun this season) and watched Jurassic Park with the Rifftrax going. It has Mike from MST3K and Weird Al Yankovich. Hilarious!! I hope they will bring in Al for a lot more of these. He really has the knack for it.

Anyway, I've never seen Monk but I love that damn theme song It's a Jungle out there.

Bring these sets on!

Everwood : Seasons 2-4
Knots Landing : Seasons 2-14
Life Goes On : Seasons 2-4
The Nanny : Seasons 3-6
Party of Five : Seasons 4-6
Picket Fences : Seasons 2-4
