Movie Reviews
Uncut Cult Gems

"This two disc set from AMC is great. The Brain That Wouldn't Die
contained in this set is the uncut version. Complete with the
catfighting women scene, and the gory scene towards the end of
the film, it's all here. What a bargain."
Good deal

"I've never seen other versions of these movies so I can't say whether anything was added back in or left out. What I can say though is that they are worth watching at least once, and buying a used copy of this collection is a better deal than renting them each seperately.
One thing that did bother me though is that parts of dialogue were cut out of Night Tide. There is the classic splice in the middle of a silent scene and suddenly he's answering a question you never heard her ask."
Well once again a.m.c. gives us inferior prints

"the one a.m.c. disc i got that was good must have been a mistake, because this one is back to their normal quality(cut prints,sound drop outs,poor video,and a general lack of care for product or the coustmer)!!!! once again you can find better at other collections."
The best of the amc monster collection

"Found this for $4 in a Walmart bin. Great. These movies are creepy and erie without all the special effects and gore of modern day horror flicks. Carnival of souls and night tide are my favorites. You get to see Dennis Hopper when he was just starting out at like 20 years old. The actresses are hot, and the stories pretty enigmatic."
