Negative Positive
Title: Fun, cheap, surprising
Review: This is one of the best DVD purchases I've ever made. For less than six bucks (when you figure in shipping), I got a 20-pack of film noir and suspense classics, with such gems as THE MAN ON THE EIFFEL TOWER (Charles Laughton as Inspector Maigret), SUDDENLY (Frank Sinatra as a would-be presidential assassin), PORT OF NEW YORK (has to be one of Yul Brynner's first starring roles), and my two favorites so far, THE STRANGER (a lesser-known Orson Welles movie starring Edward G. Robinson) and, on the other end of the spectrum, the movie I'm watching tonight, JAIL BAIT, written and directed by Edward G. Wood.Don't expect much and you won't be disappointed: the quality of the transfers is FAR from HD quality (some of them are from old prints, like the quality you'd see on an afternoon or late night UHF movie feature, with fuzzy sound, choppy edits, etc).But if you're like me and sometimes you just want to veg on the couch watching an old movie, this set is MORE than worth it.
Is the review positive or negative?
