-Discs: 4
-Pros: Four movies for the price of what some single movies sell for. Decent Stephen King movie.
-Cons: More bad movies than good. No real specials on the movies.
-Link: Horror DVD - Unknown (At the time, this set is not available through Suncoast.com.)
-Notes: The price alone makes it tempting, but it's up to you. I honestly couldn't reccomend some of these movies, but some are alright.-The Dentist:

-Format: Widescreen.
-Starts with: Menu.
-Specials: Trailer, Cast and Crew bios (menu).
-Languages: (Audio) English. (Subtitles) French, Spanish.
-Pros: N/A
-Cons: Proves just how easy it is to make a REALLY bad movie. Very few specials.
-Link: Dentist - $12.99
-Notes: A movie that lives up to it's name. Watching it is as painful as going TO a dentist. I'd reccomend avoiding this at all costs.-The Landlady:
-Sides: 1
-Format: Standard.
-Starts with: Menu.
-Specials: Trailers, Cast and Crew bios (menu).
-Languages: (Audio) English. (Subtitles) French, Spanish.

-Discs: 4
-Pros: Cheap!
-Cons: Not great movies, but not the worst by far. No specials on the discs.
-Link: Best of Sci-Fi - Unknown (At this time, this set is not available at Suncoast.com.)
-Notes: This set is IMHO better than the Horror one.-Cyborg 2:

-Sides: 1
-Format: Standard.
-Starts with: Menu.

-Languages: (Audio) English.
-Pros: I actually like this movie.

-Sides: 1
-Format: Standard.

-Specials: Trailers.
-Languages: (Audio) English.
-Pros: Decent, but not great movie.
-Cons: No specials.
-Link: Solar Crisis - Unknown (At this time, this is not available through Suncoast.com.)
-Notes: Where to start? This is one of the few "Alan Smithee" movies made. What that means is the director of the movie "lost control" of how the picture SHOULD have been, and it turned into something far different, thus (after approval from the Director's Guild) instead of using his/her name "Alan Smithee" is substituted. Secondly, this is the only disc I know of so far that has the actors listed on the side of the box, and on the disc. Maybe that's to impress people, as it does have quite a line-up, but appearently something went wrong with it (see above)... Overall not TOO bad, but not great. And finally, for some strange reason, part of it will not play on my PC DVD player (PowerDVD v1.6).-The Blair Witch Experience: Two Blair Witch movies, three Blair Witch games, and a stickman pendant.
-Discs: 2
-Pros: Second movie is good. Great price. LOTS of stuff.

-Link: Blair Witch Experience - $35.99
-Notes: Blair Witch 2 is the first DVD+CD released in the US. Nice novelity factor, perfect for this page. ;) Contains QUITE a bit of stuff for the price.-The Blair Witch Project: Low-budget "hit" film. Not a surprise hit if you take in all the hype before hand. Interesting concept for movie making.

-Starts with: Menu.
-Specials: Audio Commentary, Featurettes, Deleted scenes, Cast and Crew bios (menu), Trailers, PC Friendly.
-Languages: (Audio) English.
-Pros: Interesting concept. Lots of specials.
-Cons: IMHO, not a good movie.
-Link: Blair Witch Project - $21.49
-Notes: I take back the "not DVD quality" comment. Even though the movie itself is shot to be "amature", not the standard high quality of DVD, the specials make the DVD well worth it, if you like this movie.-Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2: Not done by the makers of the original Blair Witch Project.
-Sides: 2 (one DVD movie, one audio CD)

-Sides: 1
-Format: Standard.
-Starts with: Menu.
-Specials: Documentary, Audio Commentaries.
-Languages: (Audio) English. (Subtitles) English, French.
-Pros: Classic.
-Cons: Not for everyone.
-Link: Fantasia - $23.99
-Notes: This is the 1940 "Roadshow" (original) version, including original scenes and colors. During the "Centuar" scene, some of the young female centuars were topless (no real detail), plus the "servent" centuars had zebra lower bodies and darker upper bodies. Both of which were altered in later versions. This also includes the intermission. I believe this is the same version as was available on the delux Laser Disc version.-Fantasia 2000:
-Sides: 1

-Specials: Documentaries, Audio Commentaries, Adventures in Music: Melody, Adventures in Music: Toot, Whistle, Plunk and Boom.
-Languages: (Audio) English, French. (Subtitles) English, French.
-Pros: More updated version, fairly good.
-Cons: Again, not for everyone. You can tell it was originally made for I-Max (3-D), sometimes the layering is quite obvious.
-Link: Fantasia 2000 - $23.99
-Notes: As I states above, at times it's painfully obvious that this was originally designed to be shown in 3-D. It also seems to lack at times Walt's special touch.-Fantasia Legacy: Bonus disc for the Fantasia Anthology boxed set.
-Sides: 1
-Format: Standard.
-Starts with: Introduction, then Menu.
-Specials: The entire disc is a compilation of specials, too many to list in their entirety. It includes interviews, deleted scenes, documentaries, film sketches, histories, stills, etc.

-Pros: A LOT of information on both Fantasia movies.
-Cons: N/A
-Link: N/A

-Discs: 5
-Pros: Good movies, good ammount of specials on each.
-Cons: Pricy.
-Link: James Bond pack 2 - $104.99
-Notes: It has a blank space in the set, for "The World is Not Enough". IMHO, this is a very cheap tatic. If you're going to sell the boxed set, sell them all. I *HATE* when people sell sets that are incomplete.-Dr. No:

-Languages: (Audio) English, French. (Subtitles) French, Spanish.
-Pros: Lots of specials.
-Cons: Shows why Bond should never be Sci-Fi.
-Link: Moonraker - $29.99
-Notes: Yes, this one has Jaws too. However, is this Bond or Star Wars? Ug, it looked like a bad video game at the end. Sorely disappointing.-James Bond 007 Boxed Set 3: The third and final Bond box set.
-Discs: 6
-Pros: Good movies packed with specials.
-Cons: N/A
-Link: James Bond pack 3 - $94.99
-Notes: Concidering that before these collections were released I hadn't seen any James Bond movie (well, ok, I saw the parody of Casino Royale), I personally think these sets are well worth the price.-From Russia With Love:

-Notes: N/A-Highlander Collector's Pack: Two movies, both Director's Cuts. The first movie is better than the second. This is a set to get really only if you like both movies, otherwise get the single discs.
-Discs: 2
-Pros: Director's Cuts.
-Cons: One movie not so good.
-Link: Highlander Collector's Pack - Unknown (At this time, this set is not available from Suncoast.com.)
-Notes: You may want to get the single disc if you only like one of the movies.-Highlander: Director's Cut:

-Starts with: Movie.
-Specials: Audio Commentary, Stills, Trailer, Added scenes.

-Pros: Director's Cut.
-Cons: Not a very good movie. Dull menu.
-Link: Highlander 2 - $12.99
-Notes: Not a great movie. A sci-fi they just threw Highlander name on by the looks of it.-Horror Collector's Pack: I call it the "Stephen King Boxed Set", all 3 movies are King movies.
-Discs: 3
-Pros: All fairly good movies.
-Cons: Not really many specials on two of the discs.
-Link: Stephen King pack - Unknown (At this time, this set is not available through Suncoast.com.)
-Notes: Good price for three King movies.-Cujo: A loverable tale of a boy and his dog.
-Sides: 1
-Format: Standard.
-Starts with: Menu.
-Specials: None.
-Languages: (Audio) English.
-Pros: Good movie, scary story.
-Cons: No specials.
-Link: Cujo - $16.99 (This may be different from the boxed set's version.)
-Notes: I think the reason this movie is frightening is because it could happen. No fancy monster killer who has been "killed" 500 times before, just a big, rabid dog. It's not a real thriller horror, but it's still pretty good. Looks like you can't get the DVD outside the set.-The Langoliers:
-Sides: 1
-Format: Standard.
-Starts with: Menu.
-Specials: None.
-Languages: (Audio) English.
-Pros: Good story, decent effects.
-Cons: No specials.
-Link: Langoliers - $16.99 (This may be different from the boxed set's version.)

-Pros: Good movie, decent specials.
-Cons: N/A
-Link: Thinner - $16.99
-Notes: Good movie, nice story. I reccomend this one. However, on my PC DVD player, I get a purple stripe on the left side and it doesn't quite fill the screen. On my TV it's fine.-House/House II: Oddly, looking at the cover you cannot tell House II is in it. It is NOT mentioned anywhere. The only way to tell is a sticker on the shrink-wrap that claims only 20,000 were made with House II. This is not under Limited Edition becuase they are not indivually numbered.
-Discs: 2
-Pros: I happen to have liked the movies. Decent specials.
-Cons: Can't tell if you get the House II version without the sticker.
-Link: House/House II - $25.49
-Notes: As I said, this seems like deceptive packaging. I don't know if they sold some without House II or not, but they don't mention that it even HAS House II other than a little sticker! Strange..-House:

-Note: I first watched this movie when I was at my babysitter's house before school. For some reason, I always liked it. *shrug*. Note to Cheers fans: The character who played "Norm" makes an appearence in this show as the neighbor. Importance? Well... see below.-House II:
-Sides: 1
-Format: Widescreen.
-Starts with: Menu.
-Specials: Audio Comentary, Trailers.
-Languages: (Audio) English.
-Pros: Funnier than the first movie.
-Cons: Not really a sequil.
-Link: N/A
-Note: This show is not a TRUE sequil of House. Different haunted house, different story, and IMHO this one was funnier. Note to Cheers fans: Norm was in the first, and Cliffe makes an appearence in this one! How cool is that? :P-The Nightmare on Elm Street Collection: All 7 Nightmare movies, plus and 8th Encyclepedia disc. If you like the series, this is a good collection.
-Discs: 8
-Pros: Bonus disc, all the movies, all the discs have cool menus.
-Cons: N/A
-Link: Nightmare on Elm St. Collection - $120.99
-Notes: Freddy is the best horror movie villian. He has FUN. ;) The movies play very well in order if you leave out the second... it breaks from the series, but the rest are all connected to each other (except Freddy's Dead and New Nightmare... but they still go well in the series).-A Nightmare on Elm Street:
