Do we even know it's standard keepcases? People above seem pretty certain. Perhaps it's like Planet of the Apes, which I believe came in a CD-sized, stacked hinged digipak. Perhaps, as someone else says, much like the Rambaldi Cube, this is quite small.

In any case, I'm sold. This is the set I was waiting for and I'll get it, even though I hear the episodes are a disappointment. I'll power through the set when I get it and if they are I'll sell it before it devalues itself.

La-ame! AB is retarded if they think horror fans are going to double-dip on these. I bought most of the 1st season releases so I'll just finish those up and I'm done. What kind of features could they possibly add that would make this worthwhile?

I never got around to picking up any of the season 1 episodes, so as long as the price is not insanely high, I'll pick this up.

Didn't a few of the first ones have an exclusive scipt-to-screen comparison at Best Buy? I wonder if they'll throw those on there.

I picked up another one today. Joe Dantes release. Cost me $2 again. Even with this set announced I got it incase its either too much or something unforseeen. Plus I love the insert of the "painting artwork"

Update!

Only $55.99. Thats not bad at all, plus new bonus features. With DD20% thats only $45, or 3 a movie. Im all over that as I'll get some good cash back for the 3 movies I already bought!

Definitely interested in getting this as I held off buying the individual releases.

That boxset really looks cool!

Same here. one of my favorite directors. But I avoided buying any others because it seemed pretty obvious they'd eventually do a season set.

The crypt design is fantastic!

The only reason I'm not upset that I bought all the original releases, is because if I didn't wait, then I'd I have one big box, instead of having each one on the shelf next to their director where they belong. But cool box though.

According to that site the "crypt case" picture was concept art only, the real thing may not look like that at all.

I'm so glad I held out on the previous releases! I'll definately get this on DDD's next sale!

Fantastic design. I will pick up the set either way, But I really hope they keep that design.

I pretty much like the Scandinavian boxes by Njuta Films:

The individual covers are pretty also. They look so old style - http://www.sfbok.se/asp/serie.asp?Serie=3116

When they drop the price, I'll buy.

If they keep the crypt design I may bite. I already have the Anchor Bay UK sets.

me too, even with a 20% off ddd sale, its still too much for the content.

This set will be limited to 20,000 units and includes a bonus disc of extras.

It's M*A*S*H all over again.

I was planning on getting this at the next DDD sale but, I wonder if they'll still have them then?

Now im stuck as to whether i should get the box set or the blu ray version

Hello folks. I have just received my Masters Of Horror Crypt set in the post and thought I would give you some first impressions.

In all honestly, when I first saw the announcement, I was expecting some huge crypt that would take up alot of space. After opening the box, I was a little disappointed, as it was not as big as I had imagined. That is either a good or bad thing for some people (I was hoping for it to a little bigger myself) The box is 8 inches wide and 6 inches high. Don't get me wrong though, it is still a decent size for the DVD shelf. There is no red masters of horror icon as seen in previous pictures but there is two plastic like tombs added on, which make a nice crypt look.

After removing the roof/top of the crypt, We can see the DVDs come in a CD sized cardboard case and there is slots for each one to slide into. *edit early morning mistake, there are 14 slots, no extra.

Overall, I am pretty pleased with the appearance of the set and am happy that I have purchased it. The extras seem more than fair enough for a TV release. Whether it will be as limited as they say, I am not sure. The boxset is not numbered, just in case anyone was curious at all.

I have stacked up the fridge ready with a few beers for tonight, so I am all set. Cheers

Exactly. There were only three or four episodes worth owning from season 1, and I got all four (Landis, McKee, Gordon and Carpenter) on the rental only (?) two per disc sets.

pics?

I am afraid not, I dont have any use for a Camera/PC camera. I would post them if I had a camera available. I am pretty sure my sister has a camera that would enable me to upload them, if I can get a hold of it, I will get some up for you.

To be honest, I was surprised when it arrived this morning. I am from the UK, so I wasn't expecting it untill early September.

I forgot this was coming out so soon. I went ahead and placed my order over at DVDPlanet for ~$48, using some credit.
