I haven't seen any of these episodes (except for the 2 in the William castle box set) in 40 years. My childhood memory of the series is far better. But there is talent here. Robert Bloch wrote a good episode that quite possibly gave Stephen King the idea for The Shining called "House of Evil" with Jodie Foster. "Spare Parts" creeped me out as a child, about the ghost of an organ donor possessing the recipients of his hands & eyes. I didn't remember the twist ending. "At the Cradle Foot" was obviously lifted from The Outer Limits episode "Man who was Never Born". Haven't gone through the whole set, but overall this is a must have for board members.

I placed my order as soon as I saw your post, and I too got the $16.15 price plus $2.50 shipping. My order has been sitting at "In Process" since I placed it four days ago, however. Looking back on my previous orders, none of them have taken this long to process. Is anyone else sitting in limbo on this one?

Maybe the accountants were calculating how much they were about to lose and comparing that to the possible ill will that would result if they canceled orders. I ordered Thursday, got the shipping update yesterday and it arrived today. I've already checked my credit card, it was billed at the "sale" price.

May 10 12 8:46 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	So you're saying they'd rather not have the series at all? If that's the case, read the reviews. No like, no buy. I'm amazed this was released at all. The picture quality and sound are terrific. I printed an episode list from IMDB, and I'm happy.

May 10 12 4:29 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Yeah, the picture quality and sound are great (although I had a bit of audio drop off at the beginning of the first ep) but how much trouble is it to pop a sheet of eps and credits? You don't have to answer me, Hausenfan, I get the picture, you're entirely happy. I am 90% happy.

May 11 12 7:01 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Actually I'm 99% happy (1% off for having to print the episode list).

May 18 12 2:38 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	ARRRRGH! That's my brief rant & grunt of impatience for having to wait another two weeks before I'll be able to afford to order this. But, I'll keep my bellyaching under control beyond this thougSeriouslyh, considering that I've waited four long decades to see this beloved series again. Seriously. As a die hard Monster Kid GHOST STORY/CIRCLE OF FEAR was my favorite show during the season that it was on. I was about 11 at the time & scared witless by a couple of them. Unfortunately, I never caught so much as a single episode of any of the episodes that were rebroadcast later on during THE CBS LATE MOVIE, during syndication or any other format. That is until I happened across a catalog from a "bootleg" tape/DVD-R dealer who listed the series among his titles available. Due to the cost, I just got the pilot. An absolute chiller from Richard Matheson & John Llewellyn Moxey ( HORROR HOTEL, THE NIGHT STALKER ) called "The New House". Now, as you can imagine, the quality of said disc was beyond bad. Muddy as hell with the sound dropping out frequently when their wasn't a steady static & hum... But, you know what? I LOVED it. For the first time in forty years, I got to see it again & it still was still able to elicit a chill from me. And now, a few years later, after waiting & waiting & coming to the likely conclusion that GS/CoF was never going to be put on disc, here we are... Out of the blue, here it is.

Out of the blue, here it is. I think you'll be blown away with the video quality. Wherever the films were stored, they seem perfectly preserved. I think the made-on-demand dvd phenomena has made alot of movies available which otherwise wouldnt have been released, so there's hope for alot of holy grails to come forth. Hopefully this will continue after the end of the Dvd Era, as internet streaming keeps getting better with increased transfer rates and (unfortunately) better copy protection.
