I'm currently on a cheap old movie collection kick and have recently discovered several collections that have been released by Millbrook Entertainment, which, in the past I have had spotty success with. From what I have gathered they have purchased the film library of Crown International Pictures from Brentwood Entertainment, another low-rate video company that from what I understand went bankrupt.So far I have received two of the seven collections. The first was  Drive-In Cult Classics - 8 Movie Set  and the second is this one, Rare Cult Cinema. I bought this mainly to see William Shatner in The Kidnapping of the President, which I remember seeing ages ago. I enjoyed it as much as I had remembered.Remember, Crown International was a very low-budget producer of quickie films that were shown mostly as triple features at the drive-in. What you missed as far as quality was made up for in quantity that would keep you in your car or on your car sometimes until the very late hours of the evening.What I found out is there was a lot more to this collection than I had imagined. Although most of the films are not shown in wide-screen, the print quality is extremely good for this type of collection. Often when you buy these you end up watching choppy, scratched, jumpy films that have seen their better days. For the most part these films, and also the other collection that I mentioned earlier, are clean and clear.There were a couple of films on this collection that really surprised me. African Safari, a documentary, was an excellent film about that continent in 1968. Another film, Road To Nashville, a pseudo documentary from 1967 shows many of the best stars in country music at the time.I got this on Amazon for less than 6 dollars and thought it was worth every penny.

Low quality pictures and some in 4x3 but for the money its ok

I finally Purchased this Mill Creek Entertainment multi-pack from Amazon. If one has several of these multi-packs from Mill Creek Entertainment, as I do, than one should have MANY of these already. But Many of these, if not all of these films are from the now defunct Crown International Pictures. But while these films might not be rare as indicated by the title of the Multipack, they are definately "Cult Classics". I have seen most of them already. But as many already know, I LOVE my cheese! And many of these are pretty cheesy! I will be enjoying this one for a while!

I bought this set for the movie "THE KIDNAPPING OF THE PRESIDENT" which was excellent, that movie is hard to find at a good price, which makes this set worthwhile, my only complaint is, there are two double sided DVD's both in separate paper sleeves, that lay on top of each other in the plastic case, so I give 5 stars for the movies and take away one star for how the disc's were packaged.

For many years people have been aware that Liar's Moon has 2 different endings and this edition of the film has the tragic ending in case people are seeking it out.If you are searching for the happy ending it can be found on this set.http://www.amazon.com/Excellent-Eighties-Demi-Moore/dp/B008L0YN0Y/ref=sr_1_4?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1359097758&sr=1-4&keywords=the+eightiesI hope this helps fans of this film seek out and find the version they want.No spoiling of the film's ending intended...but let's be realistic it has been around for a long time for people not to know about it.

...You really can't complain considering the price but the picture quality suffers on some more than others. None of these movies are good enough to deserve being on a single Blu-ray disc...but it's nice to hope that all movies are preserved so ya this is a fun campy collection of 12 movies in a format that probably suits them best.

1st class all round

A cool box us of grindhouse movies its nice
