Alien Quadrilogy

Pros: All your bug movies, all in one place. Lots of fun extras.

Cons: Pricey. Probably more detail than you need. Some principals absent.

The Bottom Line: Cool for big-time Bug movie fans. Others may be inundated.

Review: I guess it goes without saying that it's an entry requirement for DVD box sets that one be a pretty rabid fan of the subject of the box set. The "Aliens Quadriliogy" set is no exception. There's more "Aliens Series" detail than most folks will care ...

Pros: Slimy, funny, creepy, great slogan!

Cons: First 2 were old, a bit boring.

The Bottom Line: It creeps. It scares. It makes you squirm. Need I say more? Hmmm, no!
