The Universal Classic Monsters: The Essential Collection [Blu-ray] was too expensive, so I bought the DVD set. The product came in the mail today, and it arrived in great condition. It had 4 great movies for a great price. The movies included were, Dracula, Frankenstein, The Bride of Frankenstein, and Creature from the Black Lagoon. These are the 1999 DVD versions of the films, but the quality was pretty good for these older movies. I just watched Frankenstein on my Play Station 3, and it looked great. I know the picture is not as good as the Blu-ray set, but it still looked very impressive. I love all of these films, but Frankenstein and The Bride of Frankenstein still remain my favorites(Frankenstein is probably the first horror movie I ever saw).Dracula is another one of my favorites. Bela Lugosi is classic as Dracula. Creature from the Black Lagoon was good, but not great. Over all,the quality is great, and you could watch these over and over again. And what more would you ask than that?


"Dracula
The original classic starring Bela Lugosi is the signature adaptation of Bram Stoker’s story that defined the iconic look and frightening character of the famed vampire.

Frankenstein
An unforgettable masterpiece, Boris Karloff stars as the screen’s most tragic and iconic monster in what many consider to be the greatest horror film ever made.

The Bride of Frankenstein
In one of the most popular horror classics of all time, Boris Karloff reprises his role as the silver screen’s most misunderstood monster, who now longs for a mate.

Creature from the Black Lagoon
A hideous creature kidnaps the woman it loves, forcing scientists to hunt it all the way back into the depths from where it came in this iconic horror film."
