Garv’s Pick of the Week: Universal Classic Monsters: Complete 30-Film Collection (Universal)
For the release week of August 28th:
Garv’s Pick of the Week: Universal Classic Monsters: Complete 30-Film Collection [Blu-ray / Universal]: If you haven’t picked up the previous Blu-ray releases of the Frankenstein: Complete Legacy Collection, Dracula: Complete Legacy Collection, The Wolf Man: Complete Legacy Collection, The Mummy: Complete Legacy Collection, and Phantom of the Opera (1943), this is an opportunity to get them all at once, along with this week’s new releases of The Invisible Man: Complete Legacy Collection and the Creature From the Black Lagoon: Complete Legacy Collection. Whether you pick them up individually or in the mega box set, these titles belong in the collections of every classic film lover.
Additional Titles of Interest —
Bound [Blu-ray / Olive Signature]: My favorite film from the Watchowskis gets the Olive Signature limited-edition treatment.
Zatoichi: Darkness Is His Ally [Blu-ray / Tokyo Shock]: The last film starring Shintaro Katsu as the blind swordsman (and the only Shintaro Katsu Zatoichi film that wasn’t included in the Criterion box set) finally receives a Blu-ray upgrade.
A Minute To Pray, A Second To Die [Blu-ray / Kino Lorber]: I previously posted a full review of this worthy but forgotten Euro-Western.
Tucker: The Man And His Dream [Blu-ray / Lionsgate]: One of the best of Francis Ford Coppola’s post-1970s films sees a Blu-ray release.
