can anyone point to where I can get a full list of all the movies available in the original monster collecion and a full list of ALL the extras.
The original 8-disc collection had Dracula (with the Spanish version), Frankenstein, The Mummy, The Invisible Man, Bride of Frankenstein, The Wolf Man, Phantom of the Opera, and Creature from the Black Lagoon.
Each film had a commentary, a making-of documentary, a trailer (except for Invisible Man), photo galleries, and production notes. Frankenstein has an extra "Boo!" short subject novelty. Dracula obviously has the Spanish version, plus the 5.0 Phillip Glass score for the English version. It also has an intro for the Spanish version by Lupita Tovar.
Frankenstein and Dracula are the uncut versions, too.
As for the commentaries...
David J. Skal: Dracula
Rudy Behlmer: Frankenstein and The Invisible Man
Paul M. Jensen: The Mummy
Scott MacQueen: Bride of Frankenstein and Phantom of the Opera
Tom Weaver: The Wolf Man and Creature from the Black Lagoon
