As the listing here is completely devoid of information about this release, please allow me to supply some details.

This is a collection of four science fiction movies on two DVDs. The movies are:

THE MAN FROM PLANET X (1951). Directed by Edgar Ulmer (DETOUR). Starring Robert Clarke (HIDEOUS SUN DEMON), Margaret Field (Sally's mother), and ubiquitous character actor William Schallert (THE PATTY DUKE SHOW). The very atmospheric story of a mysterious alien's arrival on a remote Scottish island. Is he an explorer who can be reasoned with, or the scout for an extraterrestrial invasion?

THE ANGRY RED PLANET (1959). Directed by Ib Melchior (THE TIME TRAVELERS). Starring Gerald Mohr (radio's Philip Marlowe), Les Tremayne (radio's Nick Charles), and Jack Kruschen (Oscar nominee for THE APARTMENT). Visually inventive film (designed by comic book artists Norman Maurer and Alex Toth) about the first Earthmen on Mars.

MORONS FROM OUTER SPACE (1985). Directed by Mike Hodges (the original GET CARTER, FLASH GORDON). Starring the British comedy team of Mel Smith and Griff Rhys Jones. A group of non-too-bright aliens crash land on Earth, and hilarity ensues.

ALIEN FROM L.A. (1988). Directed by Albert Pyun (CYBORG). Super-model Kathy Ireland discovers an underground civilization. The MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000 favorite in its original form.
