This budget DVD collection has likely been mastered from a 16mm reduction print, and may be of similar quality to other low-budget discs.

The attraction of quantity over quality may not be the intended value consumers are after.

We don’t recommend this edition, sight unseen, since their are higher-quality editions of these films already available on DVD.
