The Pride of Jesse Hallum - Slow burn plotline but well worth the drag with Johnny Cash songs throughout and a solid plotline!
Five Minutes to Live (retitled Door-to-Door Maniac) - Horrible picture and sound quality, plotline and acting. A real bust for the young Johnny Cash!

Great Selection of TV Movies!

"I highly recommend this set. Yes, I will conceed that the quality is just okay...these films were not remastered. But as a fan of the TV movies from the 70's I love this set!!! I was a pre-teen when most of these movies were on the ABC Movie of the Week, and I recall most of them fondly. I bought this set basically for "Maybe I'll Come Home in the Spring" with Sally Field. I can remember so clearly being in my pajamas and sitting in the living room watching it on the only TV we owned a 19" B/W portable set (with an antena on the back of the set.) I can't tell you the thrill of watching it again- If you don't expect the perfection of remastered DVD quality, you will certainly enjoy this set."

"I have had no problems with my discs freezing up or not playing. They play fine in both of my DVD players. No scratches at all on the discs. I enjoy these type of movies, having seen many of them as a kid, back in the 70s so it was entertaining seeing them again. I basically got the set for one movie, "The Death of Ritchie" which I was not able to find on DVD. The packaging is pretty cheap and these are dual-side DVDs, but I was not disappointed with my purchase since they all play fine. Maybe I just got lucky with my set."

"Fans of old and rare movies and TV movies will love this pack of double-sided DVDs featuring famous actors in early roles. This is the kind of stuff you may never have a chance of seeing on TV from any source because they are off the radar. We love it--and have bought other collections from the same source."
