And Then There Were None on DVD and Blu-ray
As the world teeters on the brink of World War II, 10 strangers are invited to isolated Soldier Island. Among them are young secretary Vera Claythorne (Maeve Dermody, Serangoon Road), soldier Philip Lombard (Aidan Turner, Poldark), General John MacArther (Sam Neill, Jurassic Park), spinster Emily Brent (Miranda Richardson, Parade’s End), and Judge Lawrence Wargrave (Charles Dance, Game of Thrones). With seemingly nothing in common, the guests wonder who their mysterious host may be. But the ominous reason for their visit soon becomes clear…and by the end of the night, the first of them is dead.

I am happy to report that this reissued set on one-sided discs played perfectly on my DVD player and I encountered none of the issues that were present on the previously issued set of of double-sided discs (i.e. freezing, skipping, pixelation, etc).

As far as the content, this is an excellent collection of Hammer films. Each one has a compelling story and displays that signature Hammer atmosphere and sensibility. There are no special feature, but the transfers look fine and the video and audio quality is strong in each of the films. I hope more Hammer titles get released in a similar fashion.

Thank you Universal for an excellent reissue of this collection.

Do away with the old two sided DVD sets and get this new one! The discs are single sided (four discs with two films per single sided disc) and both films on each disc fits on a DVD-9 quiet nicely (instead of the older double sided two disc set) and the images are somewhat better too (still bad shimmering on "Nightmare"). I had to chunk the old two sided set because three of the movies were freezing up or pausing and it just got frustrating trying to get them to play. This new set is the way to go. Btw, these are great Hammer films and might well be my favorite Hammer set! Universal heard our cries over the faulty first set and they made it right. Now where are the blu ray sets?

I bought this 4 DVD set because reviews were bad on the first release set of these movies, so I avoided buying that set. This 4 DVD set to me is excellent , The Brides of Dracula and Curse of the werewolf look great in picture quality . Night creatures has a snowy light grain when it starts in the beginning but goes away and the remaining movie looks very good . The Evil of Frankenstein is a very nice picture as well. I have not watched the other films on this set though I am happy with the picture quality of this new release . These are older movies and they look very nice in this new DVD collection. I know there are perfectionists out there on picture quality but I had Blu-rays that look like VHS like Clash of the Titans and others than any of these films. So do not worry and enjoy these more hard to find Hammer classics ,this set is not as bad as some others say it is.

It is about time they released this collection of films on single sided DVD's, 2 to a disc like a double billing. I put off buying this years ago because of the issues most people had with the previous release (defective disks, freezing, etc). So far I have not had issues, the transfers are good through my Blu Ray player and I couldn't be more pleased.

I saw all of these as a kid in the 1960s, as afternoon TV staples. About half of these are monster films (various vampires, one frankenstein, one wereworf) and the rest are kind of suspense horror films (Phantom of the Opera was the only one I remembered). WHile the vampire films were second tier - not a single Christopher Lee one and based on abruptly ending formulas - I hugely enjoyed the frankie and werewolf ones, which had interesting variations in them, e.g. the werewolf's origin was not getting bitten, but a combination of a violent impregnation and the birth on Christmas day. I have a soft spot for the Evil of Frankenstein, which I saw with my dad and remembered vividly, though objectively, it is relatively weak. Finally, I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the suspense horror films, all of which kept me guessing to the end. In particular, I found Paranoiac to be especially fun - I had no idea how it would turn out (i.e. who was bad, who was controlling things, what their agendas were, etc.).

One of the reasons I got this collection is to see a young Oliver Reed, who is in 3 of the films. His acting was wonderful (he is even a good guy in one), though of course Peter Cushing is also excellent. I particularly enjoyed Cushing as the mysterious vicar in a period piece, which didn't stop him from belting an intruder and facing down some rough sailors from the King's Navy (loosely based on Dr. Syn resisting impressment).

If you are a Hammer fan, this is a wonderful collection, if only for nostalgia's sake. Of course, my kids didn't grow up with these and think they're stupid and crude, which in a way they are. Warmly recommended.

It's difficult to imagine a Hammer collection of this size with no titles featuring Christopher Lee, but the presence of Peter Cushing and Oliver Reed in many of the films included makes up for this omission. The color films in the set look very good, with the colors crisp and penetrating in the Hammer style. I mention this because I have several other Hammer titles released at different times that appear somewhat washed out.
While these are not the films one tends to think of at first blush if one is a Hammer fan, the stories all feature interesting plots that are well carried out. I have always thought Evil of Frankenstein to be given less credit than it deserves in the Frankenstein series. On the other hand, the climax of Paranoic plays as forced and happens suddenly without providing a clear resolution.

Oh, the Classic Age of British Hammer Films Horror! From 1957 to maybe 1973 Hammer ruled Horror to a large degree, especially Gothic Period Horror. This Collection is a wonderful example of the Hammer Style with something for everyone! Frankenstein, Werewolf, Vampires, Mad Doctor, Phantom, Zombie Horsemen-and more! FrightFest starts right here in glorious gothic color! For this was when Hammer walked the earth!
