Revised review 5/3/10 new inventory
Received my copy today. I preordered & got it for the price of $29.99
It comes with a total of 11 discs. 2 episodes per disc. There are some issues about this: (1) the episodes are out of order, (2) all the episodes are listed on the back of the box, but you don't know what is on each disc, I made a list so I will know, (3) one episode titled The Choice is missing. It is listed on the box, but is not on any disc.
I have scanned through all of them & the quality looks good to me. I did not know anything about MOD so I had concerns about the quality, but everything I see looks & sounds good.
I hope seasons 3 & 4 will be released also. I don't understand the price jump, but if it does come down I think it is worth purchasing.
Revised 5/3/10
Received the replacement DVD of the new inventory.
All 22 episodes are included & they are in order.
There is still 11 discs with 2 episodes each. Discs 1-4, 5-8, 9-11. It...
Thrilled season 2 was finally released!
I am THRILLED to finally have an official release of POLTERGEIST: THE LEGACY Season 2 after waiting well over a decade for it to come out. The set came nicely packaged in three separate DVD cases. The artwork on the front cover of each case is as shown on Amazon and includes "Discs #-#" on the cover and spine. Each DVD-R disc has the same MGM logo & background from the cover and is labeled with the title of the series and the disc number. I pre-ordered the set when it first became available on Amazon and got it for $29.99 + free shipping.
Here are the episodes on each of the DVD-R discs I received with the order # they were first aired in according to IMDB:
1: The Devil's Lighthouse #13 & Lights Out! #3
2: Fear #18 & Rough Beast #9
3: The Spirit Thief #4 & The New Guard #1
4: Lives in the Balance #8 & Dark Angel #7
5: Black Widow #2 & Shadow Fall #16
6: The Gift #5 & Transference #6
7: Repentance #12 & Ransom #10
8: Lullaby #14...
Good Picture and Sound
I'm one of the lucky ones who pre-ordered this at $29.99. Jill Moody's review is right on. The episodes seem a bit grainy at times, but I think that's purposeful---- to add to the mystery of the show. The episodes are indeed out of order and my disc #11 is also missing "The Choice" episode, but I think Amazon and MGM will probably make it good. I sent them an email and will let everyone know how things stand. But frankly, with the exception of the missing episode, I'm pretty pleased with the set.
ADDENDA 3/8/10: I talked to someone in Amazon's MOD department and he said they had read the reviews on the sets problems. They said they would definitely contact the company that manufactured this set and ask for a re-do. How long that will take is anyone's guess. But I've always believed in the "bird in the hand" philosophy and will keep my set until the problem is solved.
