I'm trying to locate the posts that had to do with the Mill Creek Horror Collection (a.k.a. the "Horror 250 Film Pack"). I know I mentioned it last year (I think it was in this thread), and I think some posters owned it and offered their review/thoughts on it. However, I can't locate it with a keyword search.
Anyway, I was on Amazon.com today because I wanted to purchase it for the upcoming 11th Annual HTF October Scary Movie Challenge, and it looks like it is currently out-of-stock. Dang. I knew I should have purchased it last year when I was first looking at it.
Does anyone own this, and if so, what did you think of it? I think I can track it down via some other outlets. Thanks in advance. :)

Most of those classic movies are on other sets, like 50 movie sets: Nightmare Worlds, Horror Classics, Sci-fi classics. Alot of the movies are "junk" but so much fun to watch. There are some good titles and I watched a few gems for the challenge last year. The video quality varies but generally it's quite rough but certainly watchable. I picked up 3 sets of these (50 movie collections) for under $20.00 last year. Good money spent as far as I was concerned tacky movies and all.

Pat,
Thanks. I've noticed that most are available elsewhere in multiple sets, but I think I will try to get this set if I can. I know that these will be a lot of fun to watch. The cult aspect of many of these films should be worth the price of admission. :)
Here is a list of the films in the collection, which I pasted from a review. There are so many in this list that I have yet to see!

I am looking forward to attempting it again this year. I failed miserably last year (my mother got ill and passed away last October). But hopefully nothing will stop me this year.... and I do half way decent anyway.

Less then a week away now! Has anyone started a thread for a marathon this year? Just wondering if I may have missed it.

I don't think so. I've not seen it, anyway.
