A massive book of 468 pages, this guide to the Best in Cinema Thrills that are now available on DVD, contains over 700 film reviews. No less than 1,200 DVDs were examined in the preparation of this volume.
So what do you get for your $24.50? Now if I was a keen mystery, suspense, film noir fan who purchased only two or three DVDs a month, I'd be glad spend my $24.50 just to get the information on ONE page of this 468-page book. That page contains a list of ten absolutely trustworthy DVD suppliers who sell public domain titles direct to consumers or make a considerable effort to stock an emormous range of titles that are not normally available from even the largest of the well-known stores. Firms like Vintage Film Buff, for instance.
But that, as I say, is just ONE page of invaluable information. As a keen fan, I'm naturally aware that classic movies are often available on two or more DVD labels. Which is the best? This book will tell you. And surprise, surprise! The best is often the least expensive version. Why pay $29.95 when you can buy a superior DVD of exactly the same movie for $2?
This book names names and steers you in the right direction every time.
But as a real keen fan, I'm also anxious to discover titles that I've never seen and would enjoy watching. This cleverly designed book enables me to gratify this desire in a number of interesting ways. I can glance through the 700-film Index and pick a title that strikes my fancy. Or I can flip through the book's 311 alphabetical pages (many with accompanying photos), Or I can read some of the articles like "The Best Sherlock Holmes" or "The Thin Man Series" or "Raymond Chandler on DVD". Or I can check out the "Top Noir on DVD" listing.
And all this for only $24.50. I can save more than the price of this book with just ONE purchase of a $2 DVD instead of its more expensive (and inferior) $29.95 version.
