I have all 4.
They are all the same price.
I'd say the 2 disc 8 1/2 is the most bang for your buck
But Black Narcissus and Wild Strawberrys are better films
The Blob is great, but not a must have like the others.
Get Black Narcissus, it has the first ever director commentary.

Black Narcissus
This is a fantastic film in the presentation of Technicolor and is a great buy. The documentary on the Technicolor development of the film is great. One scene alone I play over and over again because of the strength of the image alone. I don't mention it because it is a major plot point. But the powereful use of color here is precedent setting and Oscar award winning.

Back to the topic, if it was me, I'd get The Blob.

If I had to chose between those two, I'd go with 8 1/2.
