i guess "Basic Instinct 2" was so bad it scares Sony to death and wants others to be frightened as well.

Classic horror film in the Val Lewton mode. It figures that the only Godzilla movie not included is the original.

I thought the same thing, so I just ordered it.

Of course, it will now turn up at Big Lots for $3 in a couple of weeks...

It's a good movie though.
Worth the price and time watching it.

Not even close to the only Godzilla movie not included. At least five are not included, because Sony does not have the rights to them (thankfully--many of their releases have "dubtitles" that are extremely inaccurate).

Classic Media has the rights to Gojira (also thankfully--they put a lot of work into it)

But it's a Classic Media/Sony Music Video co-release, so I was hoping it would have been included.

Let me put in a resounding "NO" as a vote.
They're slasher movies with a monster, no emotional plot behind them. Well, no, let me say Pumpkinhead 2 is. I don't know about 3&4, after 2 I felt no need to watch them, so I shall say nothing positive or negative from ignorance.

The ICONS OF HORROR on sale is the Sam Katzman collection, unfortunately not the Hammer collection that is being released in October.

You should pay attention to what movies you are talking about....
Pumpkinhead 2 wasn't released by Sony & it has NOTHING to do with this sale.
Only 3 & 4 which you haven't seen so shouldn't give any advice about it....
No offense but you have no right to drop an opinion on them....
Most people consider them better than 2 BTW,I really 2 but....
These are closer to the original,especially Pumpkinhead: Ashes to Ashes....
Both 3 & 4 feature Lance Henriksen which is always good....

Indeed. Great film. Very atmospheric. Based on a tale by M.R. James, one of the authors Lovecraft admired. This film belongs in the collection of anyone who's a fan of atmospheric, suggestive horror.

And directed by Jacques Tourneur, who directed many of Lewton's films, most notably I Walked With a Zombie. What's interesting about Curse of the Demon is that, while Tourneur's films with Lewton were ambiguous about whether the horror was supernatural or merely psychological maladies, Curse of the Demon commits itself to supernatural phenomena.

I'd recommend the film to Lovecraft fans.

I did, sir, you will note the entirety of my post.
Pumpkinhead 2 wasn't released by Sony & it has NOTHING to do with this sale.
It is on sale at deepdiscount right now, though, as Lion's Gate released it, and he said he liked "the original" and often people pick up *all* sequels, rather than skipping the next one in line, and so since he asked here, I thought it might not be a bad idea since it IS in a concurrent sale.
Only 3 & 4 which you haven't seen so shouldn't give any advice about it....
No offense but you have no right to drop an opinion on them....
re-read my post. I said I didn't know about them--and it's hard not to take your tone as extremely offensive (considering your condemnatory repetition). but I won't.

That's what I thought too. I was super excited at first because I thought it was B1G1 free, but it's just $5.97 per. Great if you have one or two movies you need to add, but if you are like me and needed five or so, it's much better to take advantage of DD's B1G1 free Sony Box sets.

They were out of stock last week I checked, but yesterday they were back in and I ordered:

-Godzilla Box Set (Godzilla:Tokyo SOS 2003, Godzilla vs.Mechagodzilla 1974, Son of Godzilla 1967

-Godzilla 3-Pack (Godzilla vs. Gigan 1972, Godzilla vs. Hedorah 1971, Godzilla 1998)

Former is $26.32. Latter $22.61, so for five G movies (six, if you count the lame duck American '98 one), you're paying only $5.26 per... an awesome deal. I put off getting those G movies when they were released in 2004 for Godzilla's 50th Anniversary, so I'm glad I'm getting them for so cheap now. I'm not crazy about the dubtitles on some of them, but the picture quality is superb and for $5.26 a pop, they'll have to do for now.

The Classic Media releases are a Godsend, and it's a shame we're not able to see the entire G series given that treatment.

Yeah.

Alas, I have Tokyo SOS (for instance) already, so the B1G1 would decrease in value quite a bit for me. I've got five or so I've been holding off on, but I guess it will be a bunch of cheapish ones instead of a good fancy deal like you managed...oh well!

Picked up Curse of the Demon and Return of the Vampire. Two worthy films that somehow had not made it into my collection until now...
