This review is from: Western 250 Movie Pack (DVD)

MILL CREEK ENTERTAINMENT's mega-movie packs are always a bargain, and a great way to instantly build or add depth to a video library. Their boxed DVDs are individually housed in gloss-coated heavy paper sleeves that take up a minimum of space, yet provide excellent protection for the discs. This compactness of design makes possible the storage of literally thousands of films on a single book shelf.

(Please note that this manufacturer occasionally flashes their logo on screen for 15 second intervals.)

The WESTERN 250 MOVIE PACK is the largest collection of public domain cowboy films currently available. This incredible roundup of dozens of stars will keep you in the saddle for the better part of a year! Highlights among the 95 newly released MILL CREEK titles below include 32 Roy Rogers 3-reelers, 9 Gene Autrys, 4 very early Randolph Scott features and much more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Value, But Not Remastered..., January 18, 2009

To my knowledge this is the biggest round up of western movies available in one place. At 250 movies for the Amazon price of $65, (Its higher or lower now, but that's what I paid at the time), you're looking at just over 25 cents per movie. Not a bad deal even if it comes out that you actually only find two thirds of them worth it. Unfortunately that math has turned out to be correct. A good third of the movies in this collection are extremely old oaters from the 1930s that run an average of less than 60 minutes. They are neither very entertaining, nor of very good quality. Even if you're a fan of that early era of westerns, its my opinion you will be disappointed in any event due to the inferior quality. Most of the early ones are very dark and hard to see even with the brightness turned all the way up on your TV set. They may be old, but they are definitely NOT remastered in any way. Very dark and very blurry. However considering that the vast majority of movies hail from the late 50s through the late 70s,(and are of much better viewing quality), I still recommend saddling up with this collection. It is definitely making the long winter here go by much more enjoyably....
