Wondering what to play for your ghosts and ghouls this Halloween? Check out this box set of eight seventies era horror flicks. There's something for everyone. Don't forget the popcorn!
The review was really more about the DVDs than the movies. That said I am not sure why I have fields labled "Not Yet Checked" as I double checked each movie's running time before I updated the review.
Color me baffled.

From my notes...
Quote:
The Hooker Cult Murders
This (very odd) murder mystery is an early Karen Black vehicle. Terrible picture quality. Worst DVD of the set.
Graveyard Tramps
The mysterious death of a top scientist leads to the discovery of an equally mysterious cult of "Bee Girls" whose leader is set on world dominion, or is she? Cult favorite that is known primarily for it's bared for all to see "transformation" scene.
Sisters of Death
A sorority initiation goes wrong. Years later revenge comes to call as death greets those responsible one by one. A mostly mediocre murder mystery.
The Demon
A stalker is on the loose. Enter an ex-Marine Colonel with ESP. He'll track the murder down, right?
The Night Evelyn Came out of the Grave
An inmate escapes from an asylum then things really get weird in this tortured piece of Eurosleaze that has more than a bit of sadism. But is the story really about a madman or something more?
The Devil’s Nightmare
A tale of seven travelers caught in the web of a diabolical succubus who kills them one by one. But only after making each, in turn, break one of the seven deadly sins.
Kiss Me, Kill Me
A witch sets her sapphic sights on a beautiful photopher. But why? Yet another bit of mind boggling Eurosleaze.

If you like seventies era Europeans horror movies, then yes.
It's a good introductory set to these types of movies but, as it as PD (Public Domain) set it's fairly bones and the picture quality is not exactly the greatest.

See, from the review I had no idea these were European horror movies either. I don't mind reviews of DVD sets, and I'm interested in hearing how good these various inexpensive movie sets are, but I'm interested in what the movies are about and how good they are as well as the detail of the transfers.

I was just looking over my work files. Best I can guess is, somewhere along the way, a few paragraphs went missing. I'm still baffled by the missing running times as I dug out the box set and double checked each movie's running time to be sure they were correct.
Ah well if there's anything else anyone wants to know- about the movies- just ask.
