Horror movie pack subscription - Page 14 - Blu-ray Forum

Firecrackker · 06-20-2016, 02:42 PM

Probably going to sell off my entire box, and cancel my subscription. Not to say it was horrible, but knowing my taste and everything I doubt they'll ever send me something I'll actually be happy with.

What were your expectations?

Not sure honestly, I ordered for the exclusive and for the fun of being surprised. I was surprised lol. Mama I like but not enough to own, the zombie movie I have no interest in, the exclusive never even heard of it (will probably keep it for the memory) and no interest in sleepwalkers.

DaBargainHunta · 06-20-2016, 10:10 PM

Got mine a day early! Been avoiding this thread, so I'm sure these have long been posted and spoiled by now.

[Show spoiler]

I don't have any of them, so it's a win for me. No idea what people are saying about the exclusive. All I can say is I've never heard of it, but the cover art is certainly cool. Looking forward to reading through the last few days of impressions in this thread now.

Edit: BD-R for the exclusive is lame as heck. I definitely wouldn't have signed up knowing that. They definitely should have stated that upfront. With that said, I can't be disappointed. I never went into this expecting a major exclusive or super awesome movies. I signed up for the surprise aspect, which is always fun, and to be exposed to movies I don't have and/or have never seen. Out of these,

[Show spoiler]

is the only one I've seen, and not in years, so I'm quite happy to own that. I'll be cancelling, but that was always my plan anyway. Besides, if the Amazon price breakdown posted earlier in the thread is accurate, this is still somewhat of a deal - a very mild one, granted - but I'm surprised the numbers work in our favor at all.

Another edit: Does anyone else's exclusive smell like hot dogs? Not kidding!

average month...
already my 8th month!

edit: actually slightly above average! outpost looks awesome... already have

.. probably able to get $5.

Firecrackker · 06-20-2016, 10:43 PM

Has anyone actually seen Badass Monster Killer? It only has 14 IMDB votes lol

Pretty lame that this is the exclusive, some unknown low-budget horror. On a BD-R no less. Not at all what I was thinking, because common sense. There are thousands of horror films out there with little to no budget that can be their "exclusive", I guess. Meh.

What were you realistically expecting though? (BTW, you should probably spoiler tag your post.)

With that said, it being on a BD-R definitely should have been announced ahead of time. That part feels a bit like bait and switch.

Still, the cover is certainly

- even if the movie (probably) isn't.

MrClarke · 06-20-2016, 11:09 PM

I do wish they had been upfront about the "exclusive". They used it to build excitement, when really it feels more like a glorified bootleg of a flick no one's ever heard of.

Oh, and after receiving it and opening my Horror Pack, I quickly cancelled.

dig311dug · 06-20-2016, 11:49 PM

man, i don't know what ya'll were expecting

how do you add it to the data base?

i was just about to post that lol, thanks

100pr00f · 06-21-2016, 01:15 PM

Just got mine in. Im happy with all the films. Mama was a good view when I seen it. Outpost gets good reviews and Sleepwalkers is a Stephen King story so Im all in. Badass Monster Killers probably should have been added in as extra while giving us a 4th Blu-Ray....making Badass Monster Killer a Bonus

I might stick around for another month bu only if i re-up and use a code for savings.

Schmegory · 06-21-2016, 09:58 PM

I cancelled for July. I'll probably re-up another month, it was fun getting a complete surprise in the mail. The exclusive was a little underwhelming, and the fact that it was a BD-R was pretty disappointing. I was happy to get

on DVD.

dvdwatcher · 06-22-2016, 04:15 PM

Don't care about the exclusive but I didn't own Sleepwalking or thezombieven one and Mama goes to my daughter so I'll stick it out a little longer!

Worship.my.wreck · 06-22-2016, 08:52 PM

Tried watching the exclusive last night and couldn't sit through that garbage. I don't even mind that much that it was a bd-r it even had a menu and disk art. But why did they have to pick such a shitty ass movie?

I was happy to get Mama and Sleepwalkers though. Haven't watched Outpost yet, but It doesn't look like something I'll be interested in. I'll stick around for another month to see how it goes...

perfectionthrusilenc · 06-24-2016, 11:32 PM

Watched the exclusive last night. WOW. That was........uhh interesting? I felt like I was on drugs watching it (I wasn't).

But anyway, back on topic:

I'll re-sub in a month or so. The exclusive was bad, but the other titles were decent.
