Halloween: The Complete Collection[Blu-ray]

I've been a huge Halloween fanatic ever since I was 8 years old, and I was ecstatic when Scream Factory announced they were releasing the entire series together in one box set. At first, I thought it was too good to be true because of rights issues, but they pulled off the impossible. The movies look great and crisp and clear all on blu-ray. They even released the long boot-legged Halloween 6 Producer's Cut which looks absolutely fantastic, if you've only seen it on a crummy boot-leg dvd. All the movies are in individual black blu-ray cases with the original posters as the cover art. There is even a special disc in the end along with Rob Zombie's Halloween II. Packed with interviews, making of, tv cut of the original, and much more. You may have audio sync issues with the Halloween 4 disc. If so, notify Scream Factory about that. My only problem is that this does not include the theatrical versions of Rob Zombie's Halloween films, just unrated. If you prefer the theatrical cuts, keep your dvds of those. These reviews WILL contain spoilers for those who've never seen the series. Halloween- I can't even begin to tell you how much I love this film! In my opinion, HALLOWEEN is without a doubt, one of the best horror movies ever made! I love everything about it! I love that it takes place on HALLOWEEN! I love all the characters; especially Michael Myers, Dr. Loomis, and Laurie Strode. I love the mood and atmosphere! It has a classic horror story of a psychopath breaking out of Smith's Grove Sanitarium the night before HALLOWEEN and the next day, returns to Haddonfield, Illinois and goes on a rampage and stalks three friends named Laurie, Annie, and Lynda. Dr. Loomis tries to stop Michael from killing anyone, but it's already too late. Laurie is babysitting Tommy Doyle, and next door, Annie is babysitting Lindsey Wallace. Michael waits patiently to make his move. I love Michael's mask! It's freakin' awesome! Will Laurie survive the dark, bloody HALLOWEEN night? If you love classic horror, I highly recommend HALLOWEEN!!!! Halloween II- I love this sequel! I just love how it takes place right after the original ended! Michael has been shot six times by Dr. Loomis, but he gets up and walks away! Loomis continues his hunt and Laurie Strode is taken to Haddonfield Memorial Hospital. Michael stalks the hospital in search for Laurie. Loomis finds out something about Michael that he NEVER knew. I love the showdown at the ending with Michael, Loomis, and Laurie. HALLOWEEN II is a treat for any and all fans of HALLOWEEN, horror, and slashers! I highly recommend HALLOWEEN II!!! Halloween III: Season of the Witch- Since 1998, I've been a big hard-core HALLOWEEN fan! I love HALLOWEEN III. People just hate it, because Michael Myers is not in it...SO WHAT!!! A little temporary change never hurts anyone. I love the storyline with the warlock named Cochran making HALLOWEEN masks out of Stonehenge. I love the "Happy happy HALLOWEEN" song and Cochran's speech to Dan about the Celts and how HALLOWEEN was 3,000 years ago. I really appreciate this "sequel" yes, I called it a sequel, because it's called HALLOWEEN III!!! Another part I love is what happens to Little Buddy Kupfer when he watches the commercial and his head turns into snakes and bugs. The last part I love is the ending, it keeps you in suspense. This classic film earns the right to be called "HALLOWEEN III" Although Michael Myers, Dr. Loomis, and Laurie Strode have been taken out, this is 100% really good HALLOWEEN material. It starts off with a man named Harry Grimbridge trying to run away from some men in business suits. In his hand, he's grasping on to a Silver Shamrock HALLOWEEN Pumpkin mask. Later, he passes out and taken to the hospital by the filling station attendant named Walter Jones. Later in the night, Harry is murdered by one of the business man. Dr. Daniel Challis wants to investigate why he was murdered. Dan has a bad relationship with his ex-wife, who is played by the actress that played Annie in original HALLOWEEN. Dan hardly spends any time with his kids. Dan and the murdered man's daughter; Ellie Grimbridge make a plan and go to Santa Mira where the Silver Shamrock company is. (For some reason, I love the scene at the bar when Dan is drinking beer and that silly cartoon is on, then the original Halloween plays.) Conal Cochran is the boss, and Dan finds out that Conal is a warlock who plans to use the popular masks as a way to kill all the children on HALLOWEEN. Dan must stop it from happening. This really is a classic in its own way. I highly recommend HALLOWEEN III: SEASON OF THE WITCH!!! Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers- This sequel returns to the basics of the Halloween series. Everybody cried that Michael was gone, so they brought him back. Six years after Dr. Challis stopped Cochran and the evil Silver Shamrock masks, we return to Michael Myers, who has been in a coma ever since the fire in the hospital. While being transferred, he overhears that Laurie Strode had a daughter named Jamie Lloyd, so he awakens and goes back to Haddonfield and tries to kill her. Hot on his trail is Dr. Loomis, who also survived the explosion in the hospital. Jamie has been adopted by the Carruthers family and must be protected by Rachel. On Halloween night, Jamie and Rachel are trapped inside the Sheriff's house with Michael locked in. This movie has some beautiful Autumn scenery. If you love the series, you'll definitely enjoy HALLOWEEN 4: THE RETURN OF MICHAEL MYERS!!! Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers- I love almost all the Halloween films, but this one goes a little downhill for me. One year after stabbing her foster mother, Jamie Lloyd has been taken to a children's hospital. Since Jamie touched Michael's hand, she exhibits signs of a telepathic link with her Uncle Michael. On Halloween, Michael returns to Haddonfield to finish what he started last year. Rachel, Tina, Mikey, Spitz, and Sammy become Michael's new targets at a Halloween party as he tries to find Jamie. I love the scene when Michael is chasing Jamie, Billy, and Tina through the cornfields with the car! Donald Pleasence is back playing the awesome Dr. Loomis who tries to hunt Michael throughout the Halloween night at all costs. Later, Loomis takes Jamie to the Myers house. I love scenes of the police and S.W.A.T. team stakeout at Michael's house. That's pretty cool. Loomis tries to reason with Michael one last time before the showdown. Loomis uses Jamie as bait to trap Michael. When Loomis finally stops Michael, he is taken to the police station, so that the U.S. National Guard will take Michael to a maximum-security prison until he dies, but something bad happens. What happens? You'll just have to watch! If you love the Halloween series, maybe you'll love HALLOWEEN 5: THE REVENGE OF MICHAEL MYERS!!! Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers- This is where things get weird. The 6th film in the franchise tries to explain why Michael is the way he is. He's being controlled by a cult who gives him the Thorn curse. (The Producer's Cut is a much better film if you want to make any sense out of it. The theatrical version is too watered down and difficult to understand at times) Tommy Doyle is back, and he fears for the people living in the Myers house, who happen to be related to the Strode family. When Jamie Lloyd is found dead and her newborn baby turns up, Dr. Loomis comes out of retirement to try to find and kill Michael for one final time. He teams up with Tommy and Kara Strode. Dr. Loomis is baffled when he comes face-to-face with the man who has been controlling Michael all these years. This film is a lot better than part 5. I highly recommend HALLOWEEN: THE CURSE OF MICHAEL MYERS!!! Halloween H20: Twenty Years Later- I remember being 8 years old and seeing it at the theater. 20 years after Michael tried to kill Laurie Strode, he soon decides to try again. She lives under the name of Keri Tate. She has a son named John. She works as a head mistress at a private boarding school in Northern California. She has a boyfriend. Soon, Michael tears her life up again. She soon decides to fight back and finish her brother off once and for all...until the sequel. If you love the Halloween series, you'll love HALLOWEEN H20: TWENTY YEARS LATER!!! Halloween Resurrection- As a hard-core Hallowee fan, I feel like I'm the only one who truly loves this awesome sequel! I love the plot, the setting, and the mood in the film! Michael finally finishes off his sister, Laurie Strode, which kinda sucked. One year has passed and Freddie Harris starts a new website called DangerTainment and six lucky people win a chance to be in it, and the location is Michael Myers' childhood home. I love that the house looks just like the original house. Sara, Rudy, Jen, Bill, Donna, and Jim are the winners, and they meet Freddie and Nora for their interviews. Meanwhile, across town, Myles 'Deckard' Barton is watching Sara do her interview, because he is interested in her and has been helping her with internet stuff. on Halloween, they all go to the Myers house, and broadcast live on the Internet for millions of people to watch. No one can leave until the show is over, so they are all locked in. Little do they know, Michael is back and doesn't like uninvited guests. At a college Halloween party, Myles 'Deckard' is watching the show, and when Michael shows up, Myles believes that the people are actually being killed, but no one else at the party does until Sara is the last one alive and calls Myles for help to tell her where Michael is at. Freddie finds Sara and realizes what is happening. Most people hate that Busta Rhymes karate-chops Michael, but I have no problem at all with it! Later, in the garage, Sara has been knocked on the ground with some heavy equipment on her, and Michael is coming to kill her, then Freddie knocks the door down, and says "Trick or treat, motherfu#*er!" to Michael because he thought he killed Freddie. If you love sequels, horror, the internet, and the Halloween series, you'll love HALLOWEEN RESURRECTION!!! Rob Zombie's Halloween- I personally loved this remake! It was everything I hoped it would be and more. I saw this the first day it came out. I couldn't possibly wait another day. I loved the beginning showing Michael, his mom; Deborah, Judith, baby Laurie, and Deborah's boyfriend; Ronnie White. I loved how we meet Dr. Loomis. I love the scenes at Smith's Grove Sanitarium. I love how Michael breaks out. (NOT the unrated version of how he breaks out!) I love how Michael gets his clothes from Big Joe Grizzley. I love when they show Michael putting his infamous mask on and they play the Halloween music! I love it when Laurie finally meets Michael at the Wallace house, I loved it when Dr. Loomis tries to kill Michael. I especially loved the ending. To me, Rob Zombie's Halloween is just as good as John Carpenter's classic! Halloween begins in Haddonfield, Illinois on October 31st in the morning. Michael is 'playing' with his rat. We see how it is in his house with the white-trash Ronnie White, his mom and sister. During school, he gets in a fight and Dr. Loomis sees that he is at the early stage of becoming a psychopath. On Halloween night while Deborah Myers is at the Rabbit In Red Lounge stripping, Michael kills Judith, her boyfriend, and Ronnie. He is transferred to Smith's Grove Sanitarium. During his years there, Dr. Loomis tries to help him, but he gets a lot worse, and I really feel sorry for Deborah when she realizes what a monster her son has become. 15 years later, Michael escapes and goes back to Haddonfield on Halloween. Throughout the day, Laurie Strode, Annie Brackett, and Lynda see Michael stalking them. When Laurie babysits Tommy Doyle, Annie makes Laurie watch Lindsey Wallace also. While Annie and her boyfriend, Paul are having sex, Michael strikes again, and waits for Laurie. Laurie finds Annie bloody, so she calls the police. Sheriff Brackett and Dr. Loomis hurry to the rescue, but Michael has already captured Laurie and taken her back to the Myers house. Will Laurie escape? Will Dr. Loomis find her in time? You gotta watch the movie to find out! If you love horror, remakes, and Rob Zombie's work, you'll love HALLOWEEN!!! Rob Zombie's Halloween II- I had waited a long time for this movie, and it was definitely worth the wait! HALLOWEEN II was awesome! I loved every minute of it! I have been a fan of the HALLOWEEN series ever since I was eight years old, and this film was everything a Halloween fan would love and more! Michael Myers is back with a vengeance and he's more brutal and violent than ever! Rob Zombie did an awesome job at directing his newest masterpiece! This is the trippiest Halloween yet. I loved the amazing details of the dreams and hallucinations that Michael and Laurie both had. I love when Michael attacks at The Rabbit in Red Lounge. I love all the decorations and costumes at Haddonfield's 4th Annual Phantom Jam. I love the police standoff toward the end when Michael is holding Laurie hostage. Everybody did an amazing job! (I think I still prefer the theatrical version. In the unrated, Laurie is too bi-polar and makes us hate her. I love the original ending the best, too) A year after the HALLOWEEN massacre, Laurie Strode lives with Leigh and Annie Brackett and is an absolute mess, does drugs, and slowly descending into madness. Dr. Loomis has written a new book and becomes more of a spoiled celebrity. Michael is still alive and sees images of his beautiful mother as a ghost, and the younger version of himself. Deborah tells Michael that he needs to kill Laurie so they will become a family again. When Laurie finds out the truth about who she really is, she doesn't care about anything anymore, so she heads off to the Phantom Jam. After partying with Harley and Mya, Michael comes after Laurie once again to have the ultimate family reunion, because family is forever. Will Laurie put an end to Michael's reign of terror once and for all? If you love the Halloween series, and Rob Zombie's directing style, I highly recommend HALLOWEEN II !!! It was announced recently that Danny McBride and David Gordon Green are writing the next Halloween film and looking to be released in October 2018 along with John Carpenter as Executive Producer. I'm very excited about that, and I hope they do a great job. If you're a major big-time Halloween fan like me, I highly recommend HALLOWEEN: THE COMPLETE COLLECTION!!!

My review is for Halloween The Complete Collection Bluray 10 Disc Standard Edition that contains 10 movies (not sure what happened but Amazon is now showing this only Bd V2 even though I purchased the entire collection with 10 movies, that item is not coming up in my order or in the search results). Legacy of Halloween still lives. Within 2 weeks from now, on Michael Myer's birthday October 19, the evil will come home one more time when the new Halloween movie is released in theatres. Blu ray transfers are very good, almost no visible defects in the films, pretty clean transfer with HD quality audio and video. If I am not mistaken, 2nd and 3rd movies have no subtitles (that's my only complaint). There are extra features that come with most of the movies. First Halloween movie is a classic and still the best movie in the entire franchise. The soundtrack, cinematography, steady cam shots, the angles, the story, they all come together very effectively, creating a timeless horror classic (I personally refrain from using the term "horror" simply because horror implies gore elements which obviously are not present in this movie). Halloween II: This is basically the events that follow right after the end of the first movie and literally picks up from where the first movie left off. It follows the formula of the first movie but still very entertaining exactly for that reason. Halloween III - Season of the Witch: Interestingly, this movie has nothing to do with Michael Myers or the established story of Halloween. It is a standalone horror movie that takes place on Halloween night. There is a bit of letdown due to nonpresence of Michael Myers but I think it's an OK movie. Halloween IV - The Return of Michael Myers: As the title suggests, Michael Myers comes back to wreak more havoc. In this installment, the story line dives into more mythological aspect of the origin of the evil that possesses Michael Myers, which I think was inventive. Halloween V - The Revenge of Michael Myers: Michael Myers continues to claim his victims in this 5th installment of the series. At this point the movie is running on very much its established formula but somehow I still find it entertaining. I guess once you are a fan, you simply cannot get enough of Michael Myers LOL :) There is also more buildup to the story about the supernatural forces that drive Michael Myers. Halloween 6 - The Curse of Michael Myers: The mythological aspect of the origin of evil that possesses Michael Myers are explained, the curse of Thorn. Halloween 7: Halloween H20: 20 years after the first movie (1978), Michael Myers comes back to haunt Laurie Strode (Jamie Lee Curtis makes a comeback to reprise her role as Laurie Strode). Laurie is now living a Northern California, far away from Haddonfield, IL, and has a son (Josh Hartnett in his debut role). Yeah, like that's going to stop Michael Myers. Halloween 8: Halloween Resurrection: The original house of horrors, home of infamous serial killer Michael Myers, has now become the set of a webcam reality show. This is the first time producers kind of drifted away from the style that has defined all previous Halloween movies. Even though it is still entertaining, the lack of the established "Halloween" style somewhat takes away the impact. Halloween 9 (Halloween 2007) and Halloween 10 (Halloween 2 2009) are remakes by film maker Zombie. Even though the first movie is ok, my overall feeling with these remakes is that they delve too much into gore and move away from the subtle, stylish filmmaking which made Halloween movies such success. I just hope the new reboot -Halloween 2018- will bring back the style of original Halloween. Honestly, gore is not necessary to make a good horror movie. John Carpenter has proved this time and time again.

I bought this collection awile ago, not planning on doing a reveiw on it, because I had all the movies before but just not in a box set or on Blue Ray. Almost done watching the movies again from the box set which has now prompted me to write this review. quite honestly I was shocked at some points watching the films again, as I watched the films I noticed they were slightly different from what I remembered from the DVD version but a whole alot better amd here's why. If I could give this collection 10 stars I would gladlyd do so. You see everyone that had a part in making these movies back in the day came together to create this box set the way they intended it to be done, and more importantyly to celebrate the creators of this legendary film. That also means Anchor Bay movies got the rights back to all the movies in the collection, the Original movies that is. When Universal got ahold of the films and started releasing the films thay altered almost all of the movies in some degree adding and removing scenes. which made the movies lamer in way. sometimes annoying especially in Halloween 3 with the kids watching the tv screen of the silver shamerock commercial counting down each day with the annoying commercial from 5 days all the way down to one complete overkill. The final movie was also hollywoodised alot to fit that era, but just turned into a lame movie with stupid teenagers. Wih this box set though you get every single movie shown in its original form the way we werte always supposed to see these films. The changes can be found alot on the first Halloween, and Halloween 2. The you see tthe original version of Halloween 3 the commercial part every 10 minutes gone, the slow plot line that didnt make sense till the end gone, totally makes sense now and creepy as hell I might add. 4 and 5 are the most similar to what I remember with only a few minor changes. Halloween 6 the curse of michael myers totally different long story line with loomis in the office gonel, and general weirdness like the movie didnt fit the series gone. You get more info on the curse that was put on michael myers in the beginning with the new recruit as in the form as a newborn baby leading to her escape all the way to the hospital. You see the little boys dreams and how he sees michael meyers with a voice telling him to kill for him. Danny is the character of the boy just wanted to clarify and a better climax and ending with more michael. H20 havent watched yet but dont know what to expect now cant wait to see the original. and finally ressurection I put the film in at the beginning to see if it was different oh yeah it is finally the true ending to a amazing series. Laurie strode is in the final movie in the beginning what where did she come from I thought it was only lame ass kids on a halloween contest in the meyers house. Awsome just Awsome. DId I mention you get both remakes the way they wanted them done as well. Truly the ultimate collection.

(Note: I know that a well-publicized issue with this boxed-set is an audio-glitch on the "Halloween 4" Blu-Ray disc, which causes a slight sync-issue for about 10 minutes of screentime. I've watched this disc disc start-to-finish twice on two different Blu-Ray players, and neither time did I nor anyone else I was watching notice any such sync issue. Audio fit the image perfectly. I did notice an extremely quick graphical glitch, however, during the moment when the sync-issue is said to begin. The video skips for about 1 frame. But no audio issue. And the video-glitch is so minor, it's barely noticeable.) There isn't much to be said for this boxed-set that hasn't already been said. It's a gorgeous-but-slightly-problematic release from Scream Factory (quickly becoming my favorite place to go for Blu-Ray releases as a horror fan) that compiled all (thus-far) 10 entries in the long-running "Halloween" franchise. It includes: -The original classic, available in both theatrical and extended editions. (Extended featuring the added tv-version scenes) -"Halloween II" in both theatrical and TV editions. -"Halloween III: Season of the Witch" -"Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers" -"Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers" -"Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers" in both its original and elusive "Producer's Cut" editions. -"Halloween H20: 20 Years Later" -"Halloween: Resurrection" (Which will probably be the only film in this release I never watch, for reasons obvious to any fan) -The Unrated Cut of Rob Zombie's reboot "Halloween" -The Unrated Cut of Rob Zombie's "Halloween II" Each film houses an assortment of special features, including commentary, interviews, making of content and more. And it's nice to report that despite missing some bonus content from prior releases, this new boxed-set houses a great deal of new bonus content- so don't worry, this isn't just a cash-grab- the wealth of new material makes it worth buying for fans who may already own previous releases. The biggest draw is of course the inclusion of the "Halloween 6" producer's cut in its first official release. And while still a poor film overall with it's silly magic/cult-based storyline, it's definitely a big draw for long-time fans and collectors, and it's worth checking it at least once. Especially as it feels like a much more organic, complete film than what we've settled with for the past 20 years, and is fun to see in all its remastered glory. The packaging is where I almost took off a point. The box housing the discs is gorgeous, but feels very light and cheap. And in fact, mine received some pretty bad cosmetic damage just removing the outer-sheeting (which is meant to be removed) that is stuck on with with those small, allegedly-removable gel-gobs. (Big part of the image on the box peeled right off.) But I can't complain, because it's only a cosmetic flaw to an otherwise near-flawless set. If you are looking for a great way to own these films on Blu-Ray, this is definitely the place to go. For only about $100 (I got mine on sale for $70, however, so shop around), this is a great value for some great horror films!

This box set is so cool! On one side of the packaging, there's a picture of Michael Myers, on another, a picture of the Jack O Lantern from the opening of the first movie, on the other side, a picture of trees with cars in the background in Haddonfield.

There are a couple of issues I have with this set, though they are minor. My first issue is that the Theatrical versions of Rob Zombie's Halloween and Halloween II are not included. They are my favorite versions of each movie and it would have been nice to have them included. My other issue is that the bonus disc is packaged with Rob Zombie's Halloween II instead of getting its own case. In my 1999 box set for A Nightmare on Elm Street, the bonus disc comes in its own case. Other than those minor issues, I have no complaints about this box set. This and my A Nightmare on Elm Street box set are both amazing. If you are a fan of the Halloween movies and if you want all the special features, then this is a must buy! It is well-worth the money you pay for it. If you want to get this specifically for the Producer's Cut of Halloween 6, then there is an individual Blu-Ray release of it now. I recommend this set to anyone who likes the movies!

The Halloween Franchsie gets the best Blu Ray collection release of the three horror giants of the 80’s. The collection comes in 10 discs and 15 discs versions, but neither is perfect. Two things (maybe three) keep this set from being the definative set. The first being a new master should have been struck to create the fall season color timing instead of using the 35th anniversary edition. Watching this one and the “ Color Timed" version located on the second disc shows hardly any difference with neither showing the look Carpenter had intended if he had the funds while making the film in 1978 (which I’m told is found on the Criterion Laser disc and possibly the 1999 DVD). The film looks great, but it you’re going to go through the trouble of including two versions of the film, then why not correct the problem that has been present for so many video releases. It should be noted that the bonus material and commentary found on this disc is quite good and fairly long, so the disc isn’t a total loss. Another disappointment is that they should have included both versions of Zombie’s two films instead of the unrated editions which are not as good as the theatrical versions. Lastly, most discs have a very small amount of bonus material. Since the exclusive bonus disc covers all of the movies, it seems like that bonus content could have been pieced out on coinsiding discs with that film on it. This would have left room for The 25 Years of Terror as a bonus disc or a new documentary to really make this set the definative edition collection. While this may sound like I’m ranting I’m not, this is by far the best collection of the Halloween franchise and it is also far superior to the treatments that Friday the 13th, A Nightmare on Elm Street and Saw received. So getting back to the content of this collection, beside the first two discs being extremely similar, we come to discs 3 and 4 which hold Halloween II and the TV version of the film which are quite different. The TV version has at least 20 minutes of alternate footage, but only runs a few minutes longer than the theatrical version. The films look very good, but natually the TV version is cropped for television viewing. Disc 5 holds Halloween III, it is a film fans of the franchise love or hate. I personally like it a lot. Though it is a bit confusing and inconherent at times, it is a strange nightmare of a movie. The good news is it looks great here on Blu Ray by far the best it ever has. Disc 6 holds Halloween 4 once again looking the best it ever has, in fact all of the films look quite good and if there are any complaints with any of the discs it’s that the bonus features are very light on the individual discs. Disc 7 holds Halloween 5, and then we get to Halloween 6 on discs 8 and 9. The theatrical and the infamous producer’s cut. No matter what version you watch, by this film the franchise is wearing pretty thin. I’m not a big fan of either version, but it did give us Paul Rudd! Halloween H20 ( disc 10), is one of the better sequels and has a good amount of bonus material on it. Ditto Halloween Resurrection on disc 11. Disc 12 and 13 are Rob Zombie’s Halloween unrated cut and all the extras ported over from the orignal 2 disc release. Disc 14 holds Rob’s Halloween II and disc 15 is the exclusive bonus disc. The bouns disc is very good with features from all of the films including yet a third version of the original Halloween, this time widescreen with the full screen TV scenes woven in. It’s a nice extra among many others on this disc, but like I had mentioned before the segments would have been more accessible if they were included on the disc with that film on it. As far as the Zombie films, I like them, but they really don't offer anything that the originals didn't do better and without so much on screen violence. I prefer the theatrical versions because they seem to flow better, although there are pieces I prefer from the unrated cuts as a whole the theatrical versions are superior. Fortunately a 2 disc Blu Ray has been released with both theatrical cuts to complete the series. It’s hard to not give this a 5 star rating, but I have to deduct 1 star for a little bit of laziness by not including the theatrical releases of both Zombie films, stripping the individual discs down of bonus material and while including 3 versions of the original film, none of them are the preferred color timed version that should have been a main selling point for this collection. Still this is a no brainer for fans of the series and since I found the 15 discs version for around $80 I'm completely happy with the upgrade.

What and amazing collection fir one of the best franchises of all time. Also includes 2 versions of halloween 6, producers cut and theatrical. I love halloween and this is the best collection you can get for it for a loooong time.

Muy buena colección, impresindible para los amantes del género.

The movies themselves are amazing! The special features, amazing! The fact that it's a collective set for the Halloween films, amazing! However, to print, release, and sell a movie with audio sync issues is unacceptable from Scream Factory and Anchor Bay. With that being said, here's a press release...On behalf of Anchor Bay and Scream Factory, we want to thank everyone that has purchased the Halloween Complete Collection. We hope you are enjoying it and all the work that went into bringing it to you, the fans. Unfortunately there is an audio sync issue with Halloween 4 that has always existed on that film with every release. We attempted to fix one of the problems prior to this release but in doing so, it created sync issues elsewhere in the film, which has now come to light. For the past two weeks we have been working to fix the problems that have arisen and we have been able to fix the sync issues at the 46 minute mark. We will be issuing a replacement disc to anyone that has been affected. If you were affected by a Halloween 4 sync issue and would like a replacement disc sent to you, please follow these instructions: In order to receive a replacement with the first batch being sent, send an e-mail to [email protected] no later than October 31, 2014 and include the following: 1) Proof of purchase (photo or scan of receipt or digital receipt from on-line retailer) 2) Your name 3) Mailing address Your replacement disc will then be shipped to arrive no later than November 14, 2014. Thank you again for bringing Michael home. I emailed and haven't heard anything back. We'll just have to wait and see if the review changes to the 5 stars it deserves.

This boxset is a must for any fan of the Halloween Franchise and of course for the first time ever on Blu Ray The Producers Cut of H6 The Curse of Michael Myers which in my view is a far superior version than the Theatrical Cut. This boxset is well presented and has plenty of extras for the most hardcore of Halloween fans my advice to anyone thinking about buying is get your hands on this as soon as you can it's well worth every penny.

First, for those who want to know if Halloween 4 is plagued by the out-of-sync problem, I can tell you that I am lucky not to experience that situation!!! Whether this is one of the few sets unaffected or new stock obtained to replace the problematic ones, is up to the discretion of the buyer! The boxset is in boxshelf size, so displaying it proudly would not be a problem. yes, there are those Special Features left out for one reason or another, but if you want the Halloween 4/5 panel discussion, you can purchase the Halloween 4 blu-ray & substitute it accordingly! I am amazed as to the level of detail & clarity of the picture quality & the sound is absolutely fantastic , in it's various formats for the audiophiles & purists!! & also the fact that Rob Zombie's Theatrical versions of Halloween & Halloween II are not included should not be a deal-breaker, as these are very much still available for purchase. The long-awaited official release & inclusion of The Producer's Cut of Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers was a welcome addition!!! Though, I do agree with most of you that this boxset could hardly be considered "complete"!!!! I purchased this last Sunday, 21st & it was delivered to me on Christmas Eve!!! Fantastic delivery service from Amazon! & I purchased this at a reduced price & saved some money!!!! Highly recommended to all fans of the series!!!!!
