Double DVD's:  Two movies, one disc.

Oh it is such a shame that you don't see these more often.  Oh well, what can you do?

-The Arrival/Arrival II (The Second Arrival): The interesting part about this DVD is it contains two movies on one disc. One per side. True, the second movie isn't as good as the first, but you are getting two for the price of one.
-Sides: 2
-Format: Widescreen/Widescreen.
-Starts with: Menu/Menu.
-Specials: The Arrival: Trailers, Cast and Crew bios (menu), Production notes (menu). Arrival II (The Second Arrival): Trailer, Cast and Crew bios (menu), Production notes (menu).
-Languages: The Arrival: (Audio) English, French. (Subtitles) English, French, Spanish. Arrival II (The Second Arrival): (Audio) English.
-Pros: Two movies on one disc.
-Cons: Second movie isn't very good. Very few specials.
-Link: Arival / Arival 2 - $12.99
-Notes: Interesting concept. I wish move movie companies did this. Needs some more specials however.

House on Haunted Hill (1958)/Last Man on Earth: Vincent Price Double Feature: Two classic B horror movies, both staring Vincent Price. The first is much better than the second, just the transfer quality.
-Sides: 1
-Format: Widescreen/Standard
-Starts with: Menu.
-Specials: Info on Vincent Price (menu).
-Languages: House on Haunted Hill: (Audio) English. Last Man on Earth: (Audio) English.
-Pros: Two movies on one disc, inexpensive.
-Cons: Second movie isn't taht good, and has bad transfer to DVD. Not as bad as Metropolis, but still very poor.
-Link: Vincent Price Double Feature - $6.29
-Notes: A pair of classic B Movies staring Vincent Price. The first is fairly good, wide screen, good transfer, they did a good job with it. The second... not quite so good. Vincent Price is a good actor, even in B movies. The first movie alone, concidering the price, is worth it. However, be ware, the DVD doesn't even have good chapter selection! It also has the best DVD case I've seen. Keeper case, clear, with a nice locking system.

-The Substitute/The Substitute 3: Winner Takes All: Another two-for-one disc. Looks like Artisan has a good idea going with them. The second movie, again, is not as good as the first.
-Sides: 2
-Format: Widescreen/Standard.
-Starts with: Menu/Menu.
-Specials: The Substitute: Trailer, Cast and Crew bios (menu), Production notes (menu) The Substitute 3: Winner Takes All: Trailer, Cast and Crew bios (menu), Production notes (menu).
-Languages: The Substitute: (Audio) English, French. (Subtitles)English, French, Spanish. The Substitute 3: Winner Takes All: (Audio) English, Spanish.
-Pros: Two movies on one disc. First movie pretty good.
-Cons: Second movie isn't very good. Not a lot of specials.
-Link: Substutite / Substitute 3 - $12.99
-Notes: I happened to have liked the first movie quite a bit. The second (or rathar, third) seemed to just be another case of can't come up with anything new, make a sequil! Another double disc by Artisan.  I'm going to keep my eye out for more.

-Wishmaster/Wishmaster 2: Evil Never Dies: Another two-in-one disc. Again the second movie isn't as good as the first.
-Sides: 2
-Format: Widescreen/Widescreen.
-Starts with: Menu/Menu.
-Specials: Wishmaster: Featurette, Audio Commentary, Trailers, Cast and Crew bios (menu), Production notes (menu). Wishmaster 2: Trailer, Cast and Crew bios (menu), Production notes (menu).

-Pros: Two movies on one disc. I like the first one. Good specials for the first one.
-Cons: Second movie not very good.
-Link: Wishmaster / Wishmaster 2 - $12.99
-Notes: I think it's a very interesting story. Good effects, and a good first movie. Second wasn't great, but not too bad.  I believe this link is for the disc with both movies on it.
