The
Video & Audio
This disc is difficult to describe
when it comes to picture and sound. The picture and sound are
not up to par with DVD standards, but what one has to realize is
that the quality adds to the classic appeal of the film.

Overall
This is such a remarkable disc. I
love movie trailers and to see all these classic monster reels
was truly enjoyable, I just wish studios today would put
together theatrical trailers like this one, for other genres.
For viewers with a love for trailers, let the collections
commence -
Studios will begin to appreciate the enthusiasm
"movie freaks" have over trailers and more of these discs will
become apparent. Highly recommended.
