Dont be fooled, Lionsgate is releasing several of these (The Lost Collection) of cheap quality, Full Screen versions of some of your old favorites that never made it to DVD, as INTENDED! My friend has this movie of (The Lost Collection) version. When compared to my old VHS version, we found it was frame to frame exactly the same, and even visual quality, as my Full Screen VHS Version. No Digital Inhancement, no Quality Up Date..Same movie just different Format: DVD..I checked up on all of these, (The Lost Collection) Releases, and they are exactly all the same, Full Screen, no quality inhancements..Basciclly, what you see is what you get..Anyone can go to Wal Mart and buy a DVD RECORDER, and you can make a transfer of any VHS Movie, but it wont change or enhance your recording, just because its on a DVD Disk. Does Lionsgate think we are stupid??..Well I guess they do because their (Lost collection) series is growing..I Know DVD format has replaced The Old VHS format, but come on, this is one of my favorite movies. I to was waiting the Grand DVD release of this wounderful movie, and "not a direct transfer from VHS", is what it exactally looks like..Shame on you Loinsgate..we Movie Lovers deserve MUCH Better than this sham of your fast buck, money making video transfer!..Atlest you dont fool me. Sorry if you disagee with my Review, but "I call them as I see Them".

This review is from: My Best Friend Is a Vampire [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Combine Tiger Beat with Degrassi Junior High and add a dash of Bram Stoker and there you have it! A Neurotic Dallas teenager without the slightest hint of a southern accent being coached by Rene Auberjenois on how to be a member of the pack. Fabulously entertaining I love this movie. a great popcorn movie, fun fun fun!

This review is from: My Best Friend is a Vampire (The Lost Collection) (DVD)

I have loved this movie from the first time I saw it - while everyone else liked that one with Jim Carey in it, which I just thought was silly, I was watching this one (and "Rockula," which I hope will someday be put out in DVD format).

Jeremy and Ralph are best friends - but while Ralph apparently has no trouble asking out women, Jeremy is shy around the fairer gender, despite the fact that the beautiful cheerleader Candy has the hots for him. But Jeremy is strangely drawn to Darla Blake - a baritone sax player in the band and not the type of girl that usually leads to the sorts of dreams that Jeremy has been having about her.

Things start to get strange when Jeremy's dream about Darla is interrupted by a strange woman. Even weirder, the next day when out delivering groceries, Jeremy discovers this strange woman is the new delivery recipient on his grocery route. After her cat has scratched his finger, she first licks, then sucks on his finger and invites him back to her house that night at midnight ... I'm sure you can see where this is going. Needless to say, there is a crazed vampire killer with his bumbling assistant; a vampire "counselor" sent to help Jeremy adjust to his new life (played by the very talented Rene Aberjonois of "Deep Space Nine" fame) and, of course, a bevy of beautiful vampire women. It is also (as far as I can tell) the very first movie in which we see a very young Kathy Bates.

If you enjoy lighter vampire fare, this is definitely the movie for you. It is just a lot of fun, very 80s, great soundtrack. I hope you'll give this a chance, if you weren't already aware of it.
