Sound of Horror
(1964) B&W Not Rated
James Philbrook, Arturo Fernandez, Soledad Miranda
A group of archeologists is exploring mountains in a remote part of Greece when they stumble across an unexpected find. While blasting away the rock to find the hidden treasure, the explorers awaken a prehistoric creature with the power of invisibility. Only the shrieking cries of the approaching monster give its victims any warning to their terrifying fate.

My Thoughts

Anyone who enjoys a good horror flick will love this collection of cult classics that are now available on DVD. Releases range from 1954 to 1964, so you are getting a taste of two different decades. Each  movie has as sci-fi element as well as a little horror. The films came out great on DVD. Everything is so vivid. Even though they are corny, they are corny is the best way. The set includes five fantastic films:

Killer from Space -  A scientist disappears after a plane crash. When he doesn't remember what happened, he is injected with truth serum and reveals a horrifying alien abduction

Monster from a Prehistoric Planet - In this Japanese film, dinosaur-like creatures from another world are on the prowl.

Destroy all Planets - This is another Japaneses film where a flying turtle wants to destroy the world.

Attack of the Monsters - The giant turtle returns, along with something that has a knife-like nose. Two boys try to get away from them and a pair of pretty aliens who want to eat their brains.

Sound of Horror - Last but not least, an archaeologist in Greece releases a terrible dinosaur-like monster.

I just loved this DVD set. Each movie is a 5-star film that horror fans everywhere will appreciate.  Getting them all for one low price also makes this collection a great value for the money. Grab one for yourself at Mill Creek today.
