Universal Classics Monsters: The Essential Collection

[DaveSimonH]

Its a shame the UK set doesn't seem to have the "Spanish language Dracula", looks very interesting.

if I pre order this now with play and the price goes up will they put the price up on my pre order?

[Baseball Fury]

No, it'll stay at the lower rate

I'm assuming it's an unlisted 'extra'

As a big Universal Monsters collector, I have to import this. Thankfully, I rather enjoy the cover art.

If it doesn't have the book packaging, I'll import.

This set looks awesome! There is only so much though that blu can add to this experience!

No. It will have it.

Wow, the UK set is so much cheaper, I hope preorders on Amazon.uk are up soon so I can import it! I'm sure the discs are going to be identical to the US release so the spanish Dracula will be included.

It may have it. There's no mention of it in the play listing.

The UK Universal release of Wanderlust was missing features from the US set.

Yes! Been waiting for this to be announced all month, and it gets revealed just when I'm off sick - nice thing to cheer me up. That's Halloween sorted!

[race247]

YES ordered as soon as i saw this thread.

[lemonhead118]

Looks good. May get this.

Me too! Doesn't look as cluttered as the US and I like the dripping Blu-ray banner too.

I had pretty much decided on the US set, but now I'm leaning more towards the UK release.

I think you're right. All original elements (or anything close) are long, long gone. I think the blu's will be a mite sharper & hopefully cleaned up a bit more (but not too much!), & that's it, I don't think this release will be the revelation that many people are expecting.

I think I'd prefer Box 2:

The Son Of Frankenstein
Frankenstein Meets The Wolfman
Ghost Of Frankenstein
All those lovely cheapo Mummy sequals
The Black Cat
Murders In The Rue Morgue
House Of Frankenstein/Dracula
Son Of Dracula
The Old Dark House
Werewolf Of London
Revenge Of The Creature

It was mentioned in the original press release I believe that it was part of the initial list of films of the classic monsters. It was released not long after the Universal 100 promo was started

[MifuneFan]

Pretty cool how they made the Blu-ray banner look like it's bleeding

Sainsbury have it a bit cheaper than Play at £33.99.

And again, no mention of the Spanish version of Dracula in the bonus features.

Thank you very much!

First time i've ever used them and there was a 10% off code for initial orders so snagged it for under £31!
