An interesting mix of titles, there.

Altered States is possibly the only title I'll pick up from that little lot: Let's hope they change the cover, though!

Though, just because they are 'lesser titles', doesn't mean I won't buy them!

For now, the only 'essential purchases' are Mean Streets and Altered States.

Coma is an excellent thriller and one of the few Crichton also directed as well as wrote. Well worth it.

I see the creative cover artists have been let loose again!

That Altered States cover looks like ****ing Robocop without his helmet on......

COMA is indeed a great film,as is Russell's Altered States.

Think I'll opt for the French Mean Streets.

I thought the Altered States cover looked ok. Really liking the Outland cover though.

Yep, you and me both, buddy. On the positive side, I thought it was a nice looking print - very 'film like' if you know what I mean - which should hopefully translate into a nice looking BD.

High noon transplanted to a sci-fi setting with sena connery. How could Outland not be excellent?!
