Almost 5 years ago, in April 2007, I bought the original Unsolved Mysteries: Bizarre Murders DVD Boxset (4 DVDs, 6 Hours). Now that Disc 1 of my set have flaws, I have decided to buy this DVD, containing only Disc 1 and 2 of the orginal Boxset. I bought this DVD for less than 10$, brand new, so it's not a bad deal.

On this DVD you'll find some fascinating cases: The murder of Danny Casolaro, the Disappearance of Lauria Bible and Ashley Freeman, The Infamous Boston Strangler case, the Psychological profile of World Leaders, The murder of a female prison guard....There's some good story there. Out of the 15 segments I think only 8 are really, really good, the others are a disappointment. Disc 3 and 4, only available in the original Boxset, had all the best stories. I have read that they won't release a Volume 2. So my questions are: WHY ?? and WHAT ARE THEY THINKING ?? I can't understand this. You release Volume 1 without having any plans to release a Volume 2 !? This is really stupid. They did the same thing with the Boxset about Ghosts, they have only released Volume 1 and it seems like they won't release Volume 2. This is really disappointing since Volume 2 of the Bizarre Murders would have been really amazing, all the best stories are on disc 3 and 4 (I would have bought it, my discs 3 and 4 also have some minor flaws, not surprising after almost 5 years).

I am aware that In late 2010, First Look Studios ceased operations and declared bankruptcy. However the new owner, Millenium Entertainment, can't release new Boxsets !?

The most frustrating part of all this is the fact they, the producers or whoever made the DVDs, have decided they won't release any other Unsolved Mysteries Boxset in the near future. Unsolved Mysteries recorded more than 250 episodes, there's hundreds and hundreds of fascinating Murder cases that will never be released on DVD, they could have released at least six or seven 4 discs Boxset about murder cases. Or what about a Boxset about Missing people ?? Sadly there's enough segments to release a 6 hours DVD set, it would have been amazing, without a doubt a must-own. Thank god for Youtube, where you can find most of the episodes.

I love scary things, not sure why but I do. I already have another unsolved mysteries dvd,so I am trying to add more to my collection. I find unsolved mysteries very interesting it's something that you turn on and you can't turn it off because it is so intriguing. Ever since I was a kid I used to watch unsolved mysteries. Little by little I will purchase the other volumes.

my fhere. Now I gotta have them all. Cant wait till i have em allavorite show of all time available on dvd. Im going nutts over
