Product Description
A 2 disc box set dedicated to Doctor Who's iconic arch nemeses, including the two classic Dr Who feature films from the Amicus stable - Dr Who and the Daleks from 1965, and the following year's Daleks' Invasion Earth: 2150 A.D. The set also includes the definitive Dalek documentary 'Dalekmania'.
From the Back Cover
Dr Who and the Daleks - 1965; Based on a story from the BBC TV serial Doctor Who. An inventor Dr. Who accidentally activates his new project, the Tardis, a time machine disguised as a police telephone box. Dr. Who, his two grand-daughters, and Barbara's boyfriend Ian are transported through time and space to the planet Skaro, where a peaceful race of Thals are under threat of nuclear attack from the planet's other inhabitants: the robotic mutant Daleks.
Daleks' Invasion Earth: 2150 A.D - 1966; Again, based on an original story from the BBC TV Series, Dr. Who and his companions arrive on Earth in the year 2150 AD, to discover that the planet has overrun by Daleks and the population enslaved. The time travellers assist human resistance groups to foil the Daleks' plan to mine the Earth's core.

I saw these Dalek films 35 years ago and peed my pants...the bit where the Dalek comes out of the Thames still sends shivers down my spine...and my boys aged 3 and 5 watch it ALL the time. I half expected them not to like the old films because they are SO old. How wrong I was! These two films have truly stood the test of time and will keep your dalek fans happy on many a rainy afternoon.

Two wonderful films - Roy Castle showing "If you wanna be the best, if you wanna beat Daleks...Extermination's what you need!"(Apologies to Record Breakers)and Bernard Cribbins making a prophetic early appearance before being regenerated many years later as Donna Noble's grandfather.
Just to add a bit of colour, can I say that, back in 1964/5,I saw the iconic scene from Daleks:Invasion Earth 2150 AD when the Dalek emerges from the Thames being filmed. I was a young lad at the time on my way back home from a cub scouts morning (ah, bless!) and went past the filming area at some old riverside warehouses around the Battersea area. My father and I watched the Dalek being repeatedly dragged out of the river at the end of a thin wire until they got the scene just right.

Two very camp classic Dr. Who films at a very good price.
They come in a regular Dvd case with a nice glossy slipcase outer cover. The Dvd's no longer come with the trading cards and poster(advertised at time of purchase), but at this price I didn't mind.
As for the films, I've never seen them look better.

For the very young...or old at heart
Don't buy this DVD if you are a big fan of the current BBC series and have never seen the old Doctor's - you really will get very little from these films. Read more
