2.0 out of 5 stars More of a tomb of boredom than terror July 28, 2007

By calvinnme HALL OF FAMETOP 500 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

Format:DVD

This is not one of those fun 50 Movie Pack Sets that are part public domain treasures/part OK to good older films and hidden treasures/part bottom of the barrel. Even in the bottom of the barrel material, though, you can usually find some stuff that is so bad that it is good. Unlike the Mill Creek 50 Movie Packs, the films in this package have all been produced since 1990, and more than half of them have been made in the last four years with more than a few films produced in 2006. That's record time for material to be shuffled off to a cheap public domain movie pack, and for good reason. Some of the films in this pack have some interesting psychological angles, but the majority of them are just poorly acted bloodbaths, or in many cases they are just plain boring. I would list the films with their stars, but I can't find one of them with an actor or actress or a director I have ever even heard of. My advice is, this year for Halloween, stick with the 50 Movie Horror and Sci-Fi packs from Mill Creek. There's certainly some junk in them, but there is also plenty of good campy fun and some films that are pretty good for their genre that just slipped into the public domain for no good reason other than just the passing of time or the bankruptcy of the studio that made them. I'm not saying there is nothing of any value here. I'm just saying that you can do better for your money. The following is a list of the included films and their years of production:

3.0 out of 5 stars Pendulum-inous November 13, 2007

By Annie Van Auken TOP 100 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

Format:DVD

PENDULUM PICTURES is an independent distributor that (for better or worse) has given amateur and would-be filmmakers the opportunity to break into the movie business. Production values of these shot-on-Super-8 bloodbaths are slight, often the stories seem improvised, audio clarity can be an issue, and the want of pro actors is glaringly apparent. And yet, these odd little films still hold a certain appeal: for the fan of the ultra-violent, most definitely, but they are also evidence that anything is possible, hard work does eventually pay off, and dreaming of a movie career is not necessarily wasted time. (If you doubt it: some of the once-unknown actors and directors here now have a cult following!)

Are any of these fifty movies "classics"? Not really. Do they cater to a fringe element? Probably. Does the TOMB OF TERRORS 50 MOVIE PACK belong in all home video libraries? No way. You must admit though that titles like "Barely Legal Lesbian Vampires," "Flesh Eating Ghouls From Outer Space" and "Purvos" are somewhat amusing-- and that may be the appeal of this collection: in spite of graphic depictions of death, dismemberment and other atrocities, in the end it's all just ACTING, and all in good (if bizarre) fun.

The DECREPIT CRYPT OF NIGHTMARES 50 MOVIE PACK is a perfectly creepy companion piece to this DVD box set.

If you'd like to sample smaller doses of TOMB OF TERRORS, I've listed titles with the 6 Movies Packs they originally came in (and included some links). Parenthetical numbers are 1 to 10 viewer poll ratings found at a film resource website:

5.0 out of 5 stars Good box set value for the money November 10, 2007

By Ted Bundy the

Format:DVD

I bought this at Bestbuy for 20 bucks and so far I've enjoyed many of the movies on it. There are over 50 films so it might take me a while to get through all of them, but so far I've enjoyed "Revenge of La Llorona," "Inexchange," "Granny," and "Gorno." "In The Cut" is also an original idea. I read some of the reviews on here and it amazes me how people don't get what type of box set this is. It's a compilation of indy/low-budget horror films... NOT big budget, plot-less Hollywood horror films. I'm not going to say every film on this set is awesome because there are a few that I think are not that great, but for the most part there is A LOT of good stuff - if you give them a chance.

1.0 out of 5 stars Slowest low budget movie ever August 15, 2009

By Mary D

Format:Amazon Instant Video

If you are looking for an exciting movie, I would not recommend this one. It's one of the most painfully slow movies I have ever seen.

2.0 out of 5 stars Truly not original February 10, 2013

By Harvey Wren Jr.

Format:Amazon Instant Video

Graduation night, ex-boyfriend and buddies followed by new girlfriend and her friend catch ex-girlfriend and new geek boyfriend parking. Geek is beat near death ex-girlfriend is raped and then beaten to death with 2x4 so that she won't tell.
Ten years later class reunion comes up and then we are taken on a well-known killing tour. Just another cheap revenge movie, no real gore or original killings. The cops are as always clueless and once convinced they are only there to clean up the mess.
I give it 2 stars only because some of the acting is ok, and I for one do like revenge movies. It's worth a watch but only at its cheapest price are even free.

1.0 out of 5 stars A ghost named bow legs February 8, 2013

By Harvey Wren Jr.

Format:Amazon Instant Video

I did my best to give this a rating for at least originality but it was so badly done and the concept was just silly. If you're involved in an abortion a box shows up at your door and while you're not looking it turns into a killer in white face. Apparently the main character (Stone) falls asleep and witnesses the murders as they happen. It's extremely slow and badly directed if at all, it's hard to tell what business (Stone) and his partner are in until the one hour mark.
At the same hour mark we are finally told what this film is about, crazy extremist calling forth the aborted baby's souls for 24 hours to kill everyone involved. It wasn't a very well thought out script and using friends as actors is always a bad idea. Don't waste your time with this one; I caught myself praying for the end of this thing.
(Best line in the film) What are we, in a sick horror movie, stalked by a ghost named bow legs?
