Chilling Classics 50 Movie Pack

Chilling Classics is one of the best Mill Creek sets, featuring horror films (both foreign and domestic) that aren't the usual so-called "public domain" chestnuts found in a dozen other sets. It is strange to find Death Rage (a crime picture) and War Of The Robots (sci-fi) included here, but a lot of these sets have odd titles included as filler- part of their charm. All in all, a very nice collection.

Here is the lineup for the 2005 release (links will be added as titles continue to be reviewed). Some titles were swapped out for the 2015 release (see below).

The Alpha Incident (1978)

Note:
The 2015 re-issue swapped out some titles found in the original set, presumably because the films' public domain status was in question. The film titles asterisked above (*) have been replaced by the films below in the 2015 edition of Chilling Classics. Three of the new films (The Hearse, Land Of The Minotaur, Nightmare In Wax) are part of the Crown International library that Mill Creek had acquired since the 2005 set. 

The Hearse (1980)
Land Of The Minotaur (1976)
Murder Mansion (1973)
Nightmare In Wax (1969)
A Passenger To Bali (1950)
Snowbeast (1977)
