5.0 out of 5 stars A near-perfect collection
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } The Universal Classic Monsters are among the finest cinematic masterpieces ever to grace the screen, and this collection represents a must-have in the libraries of both horror fans in particular and cinema fans in general. In fact, one could call it a near-perfect collection.To be sure, not all of these classic films are as fine of masterpieces as the most famous of them. We all know Dracula, Frankenstein, The Creature from the Black Lagoon, and the others, but we don't necessarily remember all of their sequels. Partly that's because the sequels don't quite live up (with a few exceptions) to the original films. But at the same time, the entire Universal Monsters franchise is so foundational to cinema horror that it's worth revisiting and remembering even the weaker entries in the collection (even the weakest of which is still quite a good film).The collection itself is the perfect addition to any horror film library even though it has a couple quirks. For one thing, this boxed set is just a repackaged collection of each individual monster's collection, which results in a couple of the films being duplicated within the collection. For example, the films House of Frankenstein, House of Dracula, and Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein appear in both the Dracula and the Frankenstein cases because both monsters appeared in those films. That's certainly not a flaw in the collection (and one could even argue it's a virtue, because it means each monster's case is complete in case you wanted to watch through the entirety of one monster's films in order), but it does indicate that the discs themselves don't contain anything new to this particular collection that you wouldn't already have if you'd purchased the individual monster collections earlier.The one thing that is unique to this collection is the small booklet containing some of the history of the Universal Monsters. While I bought the collection for the movies and not for the extra booklet, I was quite pleased to find it's actually a well-produced little document and it was a pleasure to read through some of the history.Arguably the only flaw in the collection is that it takes certain liberty with the word "complete." For instance, this collection does not contain Lon Chaney's 1925 silent The Phantom of the Opera, though it does contain the 1943 technicolor remake starring Claude Rains. However, while it may not be complete by the strictest definition, it is certainly a near-complete collection, and well worth owning. It would make a perfect gift for any horror fan.
5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing collection
This box set was more than I even imagined. It's really a collection of collections, any one being fantastic on their own. This is actually an amazing production by Universal and whoever their home media partners are. The box, booklet, and individual blu ray sets are top notch. If you're a movie fan, monster fan, or just want to get hyped for your next trip to Universal Studios, this is worth every penny. My household is all set for Halloween movies forever!
5.0 out of 5 stars A completist's dream, but has some repeats
I love this collection, definitely a five-star purchase, with one very minor caveat. First, the good news: This collection really does give you everything -- every iteration of every classic Universal horror franchise, right down to the "Abbott and Costello Meet..." series -- in lovely clean prints (so far; I haven't watched all of them yet). In fact, it claims there are 30 films, but there are actually 31.The slightly less good news: These started as individual sets that were packaged together, so there's some overlap. Dracula and the Wolf Man are both in "Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein," so you'll get three copies of that film. You'll also get two copies of "Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man," three copies of "House of Dracula," etc. So although you do get 31 titles, you'll end up with 38 actual movies. Not a terrible thing, but you may consider it unnecessary clutter.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!!!
I bought the Blu-ray version of this set for $69.49 when it was on 54% off discount, as i have been holding off buying this set for 2 years in the hope that ALL of these films would be offered in the 4k Blu-ray format but that does not seem to be the case as there has been a 2 year gap and no new 4k versions have been announced for the rest of these films so i pulled the trigger and bought this set to compliment my 2 4k Blu-ray sets of the main 8 films. The picture and sound quality is excellent on all of these films and i am very happy with this set at this price!!!.
5.0 out of 5 stars Love my horror classics
Classic horror, Universal got it right oh so long ago
5.0 out of 5 stars Monster kids rejoice!
Fantastic set…classic horror has never looked better
All the monsters in one box!
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } This box set features all of the Universal monsters together in one great box set. You get Dracula, Frankenstein, The Invisible Man, The Wolf Man, the Mummy, the Creature From the Black Lagoon and the Phantom of the Opera with all of the sequels, cross-over and subsequent franchise films included. Even the Abbott and Costello films starring the monsters are included. Yes, when they titled this thing ‘Complete’ they meant it. These pictures are presented in high definition on Blu Ray with loads of extras and a nice booklet in a sturdy and attractive compact box. Each monster’s films are housed in their own keep case with stylish labels and separate trays for each disc. A nice addition to any collection, especially if you can get it on sale.
Classic horror
Excellent boxset
Muchos monstruos en un gran box set
Cuando se es coleccionista, hay que estar atentos. El precio de este set está por lo regular en 3,000 pesos pero yo lo obtuve en la mitad de precio en uno de esos días en que los precios se modifican (no sé por qué), lo cual estuvo genial, porque contiene 30 películas, agrupadas por sagas, es decir, incluye siete sagas de monstruos clásicos de la Universal en blu ray, más un booklet conmemorativo en un empaque rígido. Llegó en muy buenas condiciones, el box set no es muy grande, así que no ocupará mucho espacio. Considero que es una edición que todo fan del terror debe tener, aunque hay títulos que ya no son propiamente terror, por ejemplo, todas las versiones donde Abbott y Costello enfrentan a los monstruos. Si te late el terror y el cine en general, creo que este es un pedazo de historia del cine que debes añadir a tu colección.
Excelente
Grande box com as sagas completas do Monstros da Universal. Pena que não vem legendas em português e nenhuma legenda nos extras. Fora isso é excelente compra.
Great Set
