    When I was little, our local television station would show the Universal Horror movies late on Friday nights and I'd stay up watching them. (That led me to collecting Famous Monsters magazine which thankfully, I still have) One of my all-time favorite Universal films is, "It Came From Outer Space." I later learned that both John Carpenter and Steven Spielberg cited that movie as being one that left a big mark on them as filmmakers. You can never overestimate the impact those Universal movies have had on cinema. Enjoyed the video!

      Film Nobs wow. Very cool story indeed. I totally agree with your statement about the classics. People will ask me if I really enjoy watching any type of classic films, horror or otherwise. I always say, yes and just for that reason- their undeniable impact they have on what we see today. I'll always have a special place in my heart for the Universal Monsters. Thanks so much for watching and the great comment. 😀👍👍

    Excellent stuff. The boxset is gorgeous. I’m ashamed to say that I’ve never seen creature from the black lagoon, it’s so iconic and I need to get my foot out of my arse and check it out.

      Movie Massacre 😂😂 pull that foot!! You know, I get it- there's SO much content around, it's impossible to have seen everything. Creature is definitely a fun one, and I can totally see you rocking that Creature head!! You're the best, thanks for being here. ❤️🎃🎃👍👍🔪🔪🔪

    I watched all 30 for the month of October, I love how each movie continues the monsters story in the next feature, so ahead of the curve. Thanks for putting a video up on the set. I bought the same set, only in dvd a couple of years ago, and I'm waiting for the Creature Blurays to get fixed, so I can complete my HD set. (your going to get a little flack for saying Lon Channey played the Wolf Man, it was his son(JR.), His dad IS the Phantom of the Opera, no disrespect Mr. Rains.

      franky mcdonald shoot- I knew that but I left off the Jr. part of the name. Apologies- my brain is pretty much fried after work. 😂😂😂 Anyway, I'm so happy to have the entire collection, finally. It seems like they fixed whatever issue was going on with Creature. I didn't see anything wonky but I didn't watch the 3D version- someone said they thought that's where the issue was. 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ I grew up with these classics. I remember my grandparents watching these constantly so seeing them brings me right back. Thanks so much for watching. I always enjoy hearing from you. 🎃🎃👍👍👍

    Yay! I love this and got it on flash sale by total fluke myself this year (2019). I accidentally clicked on that link and saw it was there AND expiring within the hour, I had to bite, and I love it. For my Halloween marathon I watched all the Frankenstein movies. I previously bought the collection with just the first film for each monster and I thought that set was nice, but this one is even better! The only way it could be better is if they did one of those coffee table book types like they did for the Harry Potter Collection. That was a beautiful set. So happy you got this one too! 🧛🏻‍♂️🧟‍♂️

    • @MovieChatter01
      @MovieChatter01  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yay!! Happy to hear you got in on a flash sale as well. It's looking like it might be a yearly thing for Halloween. I haven't watched all the movies in the collection yet but it's fun to pick through some new titles each time I take it out.
      Thanks for watching and sorry about the delayed repossess. I've been helping a friend who had 2 surgeries this month so I'm way behind. New video coming later today or tomorrow. Thank you for being here. ❤️❤️

    Hey, Steph. I learn something new from you every video. I'm not a physical media collector, as you know, but still is interesting to see all that's out there. Great stuff. And I'm always reminded of ALL of the classic horror movies that I've missed in my lifetime. *hangs head in shame." Happy Halloween to all of you! :)

    • @MovieChatter01
      @MovieChatter01  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      NipoteZia 😂😂 this is a no shame zone. I was just telling someone else- there's SO much content, it's impossible to see everything. That's why I like throwing the classics in, sometimes it can help folks figure out what to watch if they're sick of that same old things. I like these types of things when I really need to relax or take my head away. They just bring me back to a different, and mostly better, time in life. Weird how things can do that. Anyway, lots of great content with the monsters- I hope you get to check them out. They're lots of fun. Thanks so much for always being here. I so appreciate you. ❤️🎃🎃👍👍👍

    Looks sweet but I'm a bit wary of the mega set. I bought the UK edition of the first Universal Monsters Blu-ray set and wound up with a defective Creature disc. Turns out many others did too. Other than a few copy and paste replies Universal was unresponsive to my messages even though they admitted elsewhere to being aware of the issue. Ultimately, Amazon made good on my purchase and sent me a replacement even though I was long past the return period. Later I found out a new Universal Dracula Legacy Collection DVD set I had went bad as well. Those dual-layer 2-sided discs are getting to be a problem. Again, Universal could not be bothered. Their customer service is Kafkaesque.

      Dam-Ian P wow. That's a shame and I do recall reading some reviews/posts about similar issues. I think they were related to the 3D version of Creature- in Region A, anyway. They were pulled from most retail sites and just recently reappeared. I've not gone through all the discs yet but if I do have issues, I'll be sure to share with the group. Thanks for the heads up and thanks so much for watching. 😀👍👍

      Nathan Jones hey, my friend. You'll get it. I'm sure Amazon will have something going on for Black Friday or their own sales. They already have it at $115 and they went to $69 from there. I'll definitely let you know if it drops again. Thanks so much for watching. I always appreciate you being here. 😀❤️👍👍

    If anybody can answer....is there a big difference between the Blu-ray and non Blu-ray editions?

      @MovieChatter01  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I've seen some individual releases on DVD and there was a noticeable upgrade to the Blu-ray. Not sure about the sets though as I've never watched the DVD sets. If I find out any more info, I'll repost. Thanks so much for watching. 👋👋
