samaron wrote: Monty Python and the Holy Grail is nice. Love that bonus scene which have Japanese dub with English subtitles according to the dub. My other favorite have to be Bram Stoker's Dracula. The cover is just awesome. Love the pictures. I recently bought Pulp Fiction and Halloween, which are on the way in the mail now. Can't wait to check those out! Never seen Halloween before, so hope it's going to be a pleasant experience. Halloween is nice movie. It is a solid release I thought for Criterion. I can't figure out how to watch the TV version since I don't have a remote for my CLD-79 otherwise I love watching the movie regardless. I first saw it on TV and it was my first R and widescreen on VHS back in the day

Great overall performance, and of course totally uncut - just like it was meant to be! But I think the "Seven" Boxset also deserves our attention. Picture looks kinda special because of the silver coated film material used for the mastering process and works very well on dark scenes where a lot of details usually cease to exist. And the AC3 soundtrack is outstanding too. Also the bonus material - like the (very) creepy picture animation of the facial pictures taken from that guy bound on the bed for a year - is really worth watching and gives lots of extra information concerning the whole project!

"Spartacus"! It has the original Alex North compositions not used in the final movie on an alternate track, plus all the screen tests, raw interview footage, extended scenes and hours of other extras. PLUS it looks better than the DVD or the Blu-ray!! J

Hmmm! Favorites? Tough one ... I really like Criterion(s). Just a few that come to mind. Alfred Hitchcock's Black Mail ... to this day, it's the best publicly available copy of Hitch's first talking film. Includes the following special feature: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGQC109RnAA that is not available anywhere else as far as I know. Also Hitch's Rebecca ... nice commentary track. King Kong ... I believe that this was the first commentary track ever recorded for LD(s).
