Hideshi Hino's "Theater of Horror" (6 DVD set) - $6.95 (plus shipping) at Oldies

Great deal on Hideshi Hino's now Out of Print 6-DVD set "Theater of Horror."

Only $6.95 + 3.95 shipping.

http://www.oldies.com/product-view/2264FD.html

"Hideshi Hino is hailed as the master of the macabre, whose pustule popping, rainbow colored, flesh nightmares have continually pushed the limits of Japanese horror comics for nearly 40 years, influencing many artists who dwell in the realm of the terrifying and the fantastic. The horrifically graphic stories of this legendary Japanese cult-horror animator are brought to life by six of Japan's cutting edge directors.

This rare and out-of-print box-set of Japanese horror films includes The Boy from Hell, Dead Girl Walking, Lizard Baby , Occult Detective Club , Death Train and Ravaged House. All titles are in Japanese, and subtitled in English."


As always with Oldies.com, YMMV as they have been known to advertise items on their site that are permanently out of stock.

Picked up the Bergman box last year from Oldies for about the same price, if I remember correctly. Great set.

I remember there being aspect ratio controversy, which scared me away.

anyone know if this is actually good? I was tempted (see my post about the Harryhausen set at oldies) but hadn't heard of this before - I love J-Horror, but the old long-black-haired-ghost thing is getting pretty old...

My best bet is that it's not quite close to Ozu style.

Thanks OP, went for it on a blind buy, found a couple more to add to the order with no increase in shipping! "Terror of Tiny Town" is only $5.95!
