VHS : Victory at Sea 1-6 (6pc VHS): The Most Famous Award Winning Historical Drama of World War II: Special Collectors Edition
Buyer beware! The newer DVD set of this FABULOUS series is not up to the quality of this VHS edition. The DVDs are made by the History channel, and the sound quality is awful. This older VHS version, produced by New Line features (although on tape) has a much finer sound quality and even the video isn't that bad, compared to the lousey transfer of the DVDs.
These are still the finest chronicles of war footage AND narration that have been made of WWll, in my opinion. Try to get thru them without tearing up at the human sacrifice and bravery.

UPDATE: Mill Creek Entertainment now has a 3 disc DVD set for UNDER $10.00 with all the 26 episodes. I have compared them side by side PIP on my TV....Identical prints as the VHS tapes, only slightly sharper on the DVD's. Sound quality ... Read More

VHS : Victory at Sea 6
This is perhaps the most moving volume of one of the most moving documentaries in history. Of all Victory At Sea volumes, I find this one to be the most emotional and powerful, dealing with such strong topics of the Second World War as the defeat of the Third Reich, the Battle of Okinawa and the Kamikaze attacks, and the aftermath of the war. As someone born long after the war was over, I feel that through especially these episodes of Victory At Sea I am connected to the life and feelings of the period. Of all possible sources, this series, with its powerful musical score and original footage, gives a sense of what it felt like: the shame of defeated Germany, the tired joy of victory in Europe, the desperation of the Japanese, the frantic fight for survival by all participants. Even elements ... Read More

List Price: $24.95
Off The Bookshelf's Price: $23.70
You Save: $1.25 ( 5%)
Prices subject to change.

Used Price: $7.20

Directed by Spencer Gordon Bennet, Batman and Robin stars: Robert Lowery, Johnny Duncan, Lyle Talbot, Jane Adams, and Ralph Graves. In this movie serial collection, Batman and Robin face off against The Wizard(a hooded villain whose identity remains a mystery until the end) and his gang of evil hoodlums. While this serial was made on a much lower budget than the first serial, this serial is regarded as the better of the two in terms of acting, plot devices, action and whatnot.

I must admit, I got this DVD Collection the same time I got the 1943 Serial Collection so I'm just getting around to finishing it now. I love it and am really glad I added it to my collection. Would I recommend it to other Batman fans out there? Most certainly...if only for nostalgia sake and nothing else. True, it's ... Read More

VHS : The Return of Superfly
I miss Ron O'Neil. He was Superfly. In this one we get Nathan Purdee who does extremely well with what he's given but it's just not the same as having Ron in the role. But Purdee is cool and does his best to make this a decent flick and I appreciate that.
The reviewer who said that in this one Priest "works with the cops" is incorrect. The cops try to force him to work for them and Priest REFUSES. He handles things HIS WAY. That's exactly how it should be.
The original Superfly was about a clever man who wanted out of "the life" and the soundtrack by the great Curtis Mayfield let us know that drugs aren't the answer. Mayfield returns in Return of Superfly and lets us know that Priest is still clean (see Superfly T.N.T) and he's on the right track and a positive force.
