5.0 out of 5 stars How completely appropriate, April 11, 2009

By	B. VEREEN "Alleged Reviewer" (Norcal, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

...that the limited edition boxed set comes in a lunch box. (If memory serves, I had a similar lunch box 35 years ago).

The series is great - totally cheesy Sid & Marty Krofft, but with a disturbing "dark" twist very unusual for mid-1970s kids fare. The mom is dead, the Marshalls are forever getting injured (Spencer Milligan's near-electrocution jolts me to this day), pseudo cosmic nonsense, and everyone is put into life-and-death peril in a fashion completely inappropriate for little kids.

Some examples of disturbing nightmare-generating images in this series:

- the Marshalls half-materialized in a rock wall
- looking through binoculars and seeing their own backs.
- Holly nearly disintegrated while orbiting a red rock with an apatosaurus and a picnic basket (gotta see it to believe it)
- Holly, AGAIN in peril, nearly exits a pylon into an explosive jungle
- Various ghostly images of alternate-universe Holly and dead Moms.

In short - it's great! One of those kids shows that adults will need to explain to the little ones.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Land of the Lost review., June 8, 2009

By	Jesse (Guam, USA) - See all my reviews

Sweet! I thought the lunchbox was going to be plastic but is not... The pictures don't show how detailed this thing is. Now I get to watch all the episodes I missed growing up in order...
Update: No special features as other reviewers mentioned... Only a sneak peak at the movie... Interesting for the show to just end like that, it would be cool for a new series to come along and pick up where they left off, SciFi could do it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great show from my childhood, May 29, 2009

By	Mike T (United States) - See all my reviews

I love this show and I will get the lunch box set this week. This show was definately on in the 1970's and this must be where they got the idea for JJ Abrams show LOST right down to the time travel and creatures.
I even think the special effects are not that bad considering the time period. Syd and Marty Kroft came up with some great shows for their time, and children today don't know what they are missing, the glory years of Saturday morning television which brought us not only Land of the Lost, but School House Rock, Isis, Electro Woman and Dyna Girl, Kids from C.A.P.E.R. just to name a few.
