Like all of the films you list. Especially Them, Creature From The Black Lagoon, The Wolfman ( best werewolf film ever) and the original Dracula with good ole Bela.

The Night Stalker was a great TV series. It should have lasted much longer.

I got the 10 film set of Val Lewton.

Some of the most atmospheric films ever such as The Cat People, Curse Of The Cat People, Isle of The Dead, The Leopard Man, I Walked With A Zombie, Bedlam and The Body Snatcher. Excellent films.

The others I was not that familiarwith ( Ghost Ship, 7th Victim and Shadows In The Dark). But they were still great films.

I am just crazy about Val Lewton's films, especially I Walked With A Zombie, The Cat People Curse Of The Cat People and The Leopard Man.

That's a great box. No chaff, nothing unremarkable, everything fantastic. My favorite thing on there is The Seventh Victim. Seems like a forerunner to Lynch's films.
