wonderful stuff 21 Aug 2008
5 films all deserve the abused term 'classic'.If you know anything about 1930's horror you won't need any recommendation to buy this collection. If you don't, the movies in the set are
Doctor X with Lionel Atwill & Fay Wray directed my Michael Curtiz with Return of Doctor X ( the only dud ).Mad Love with Peter Lorre & Colin Clive.Devil Doll with Lionel Barrymore and Maureen O'Sullivan directed by Tod Browning.Mark of the Vampire with Lugosi, Atwill, Barrymore directed by Browning and The Mask of Fu Manchu with Karloff and Myrna Loy.
Only the Return of Dr X prevents a 5 star rating but still very worthwhile

Well, the title says it all really.
Great films, although I wouldn't call "The Mask of Fu Manchu" a horror film. It's more of an Indiana Jones-type adventure flick, although starring the great Boris Karloff. Very good film, don't get me wrong, but not "horror".

But "Mad Love" (great Peter Lorre), "The Devil-Doll" (surprisingly touching), "Dr X", "Return of Dr X" and "Mark fo the Vampire" (although a disappointing ending, and "mute" Lugosi) are all true horror classics.

classic collection. 8 Aug 2009
Just recently purchased this set and what a set!Karloff,Lugosi,Lorre,Atwill,Barrymore,Clive,Wray and Bogart(?).Yes i know bogart isnt exactly known for this type of movie but an interesting chance to see him in one.I think the only one of these that i have not seen before was "the mask of fu manchu" but i am really looking forward to seeing it.Five of the movies have commentaries by such luminaries as steve haberman,greg mank,kim newman and scott mcqueen,with the most surprising coming from director of "return of Dr.X" Vincent Sherman.The only disappointment is the absence of a commentary for"the devil doll".It seems surprising that they should get commentators on the rest but not for this.There is also trailers for all movies except "fu manchu" which is a shame.Despite these omissions it is still a great set.
