Monster Movie Trailers.

"Basically, this DVD is a seventy minute collection of monster movie trailers. Other than a brief three minute introduction that talks about dinosaurs and the movies and a short behind the scenes look at one of the SINBAD movies, the rest of the DVD is nothing but trailers.The title of this DVD is misleading because it really doesn't have much to do with dinosaurs. Instead, most of the trailers are from monster pictures. Some of the trailers that can be seen include GODZILLA: KING OF THE MONSTERS, RODAN, KING KONG, KING KONG VS. GODZILLA, JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH, JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS, and ONE MILLION YEARS B.C.Though I was a little disappointed by the content, I was also surprised that I enjoyed watching it. I'm a huge film buff and I found it a pleasure to see shots of some the great early sfx wizards. It was also a hilarious trip seeing how cheesy some of these "big monster" movies looked.Overall, this disc is something that only a huge movie fan or big monster movie fan will enjoy; definitely something the average person will not like."

This is perfect!
