Urban Legends (Ultimate Box Set) [DVD] [2005]

The first thing about this box set is that the DVDs in it are exactly the same as those sold separately –I know as I’ve got both types. The box set has a strong open fronted outer card case and the individual DVDs are each held within their own DVD case. What follows is a general overview, for more detail please see my individual reviews of the films.The first two films are very similar in style and consist of a number of Urban Legends held together by a basic storyline. In effect each murder almost works as separate act or scene. They quite comfortably fit into the slasher/gore school of shocks and provide some good jumpy moments. The third film was a direct to DVD and does not suffer too badly from its low budget, holding its own against the others, but its more a supernatural detective story with some scary moments.All come with much the same extras; Language selection [English & either German or Spanish, depending on the disc], subtitles [14 dropping to 5 on the last –almost all being European], scene selection, play and some other extras being mostly making of or commentaries.Overall each film gets a **** rating, but that doesn’t mean they are all as good as one another. It all depends on your preference, whether it’s shock/horror or storyline/shocker you want. If you like being scared, get them, but try the box set as it will work out cheaper -especially second hand as its usually the outer card box that will carry any damage/wear.

Its very good box set of Urban Legends trilogy. It contains the three movies with keepcase each. Its the dition that have been previously released alone. The first two have Greek Subtitles ! This is important cause is dificult to a greek collector to find greek subs in the UK editions.

Disc 1 was alright.Disc 2 was the best among these 3.Disc 3 has completely nothing to do with the first 2, great actresses but might due to the low budget, or the director, so it turns out a bit crap. Could have been better, one thing worth mentioning, the theme song "I Will Always Be There" by Niki Harris (friend and backing vocalist for Madonna) was good.

Love it.

Many thanks as usual

An absolute must for any fan of horror/slasher movies... Although I had already seen all three movies it was useful to have them all in one Classic Boxset... Maybe will only replace when I can afford the blu ray version!

Great service and received them in reasonable time. Well recommend . I have loads of dvd's off them

ABSOLOUTELY love these films, they are just amazing, worth every penny i paid for this. The 3rd one dont really link on to the 1st and 2nd but its still a bloody good film.
