The Eurocrypt Of Christopher Lee Collection (Blu-ray + CD) [8-Disc Collector's Set]

I am still working my way through this Blu Ray Box Set - the only downside of it is Crypt of the Vampire will not play on a UK Blu Ray player - however i was aware of this before purchase and i have it on DVD.The best thing about this set is the show Theatre Macabre which Christopher Lee hosts at the beginning and end , his appearance speaking English is superb and within keeping of how spooky Christopher Lee wants his memory kept. There are 24 episodes in the double blu ray (26 episodes were meant to be made but 2 are lost) , the stories are badly dubbed from Polish to English but their are additional subtitles , however it did not put me off watching them , they are based on famous writers and not so famous writers stories including Edgar Alan Poe , Robert Louis Stevenson etc , i would not say they are horror but some are really interesting and at 25 mins an episode you havent got chance to be bored.Challenge the Devil a very sort after Christopher Lee film which i found out is actually "Catharsis" a horror film which i have been after for years , its good to have in my collection but it is actually a terrible film.The Torture Chamber of Dr Sadism - known under a string of different titles - in my DVD collection it is Castle of the Walking Dead (not to be confused with Castle of the Living Dead which is also in this collection) well The Torture Chamber is not a bad film based loosely around the Marquis De Sade but the thing with the Blu Ray it has been completely cleaned up (my DVD is awfully grainy) and it was an absolute pleasure to watch.Sherlock Holmes and The Deadly Necklace was nice to have in the set and so was the CD and Booklet - which i still have to read.Because of the quality of the contents it was worth the money i paid for it and would happy recommend it to serious Horror / Christopher Lee collectors.

A great box set well put together and overview of some of Lee's more obobscure work. Bit pricey but it is an import and unfortunately not available in the uk . But worth it.

A lovely package contains a number of hard to find in the Anglophone world Lee films but the real positive here is the extras, hours of joyful material. Also discs are region free and so should play on just about any player anywhere. I certainly recommend this to anyone with an interest in the films of Christopher Lee or exploitation films from Europe from 1950 through to 1970.

This is a superb set and any fan of Christopher Lee owes it to themselves to purchase it. However, as it comes from the US expect the corners to be bashed in as it was just packed in an oversized jiffy bag rather than tightly packed in a box. Not worth sending it back but do expect some cosmetic damage to the outer packaging.

Great box set, crypt of the vampire is a region A blu ray disc, when switching to English audio on menu, it appears there no sound on disc, will watch it with sub titles, I would if any one else has experienced this issue.
