"Okay, it's 50 movies...some very old, some very foreign, some good and some bad. That's what I expected. However, I did find more reasons to criticize than praise on this collection. Two of the movies would not play. They would start and freeze, sometimes moving a frame or two and freezing again. The one Tarzan's Revenge only played about three minutes and that was it. I tried three different DVD players and could not skip to a different scene or start at the back and use reverse to get into the movie. Also, Manhunt was a Rome release, not a movie with Don Murray. Bloody Friday was also nothing like the description and did not have the listed stars. Cheap is cheap, but come on, how hard is it to list the right movie? Are these things out-sourced to non-English reading or speaking countries? To sum up, there are some worthwhile shows in this collection, but I'm glad I waited until they were on sale. Had I paid full asking price, I would have felt cheated."
