Releases Reviewed:

Snowbeast might not be a movie many will find worth hunting down, but there are a few options for the curious.

There are a number of similar looking DVD's and a bunch of multi-movie packs. The most amusing of the ones I saw is the “Sasquatch Horror Collection” though don't go thinking it's an impressive package. I have a couple of copies of Snowbeast which I'll discuss below.

I'll compare my multi-pack copies to give you an idea of the quality you can expect. First up is the Chilling 20 pack.

Video:

1.33: There is no widescreen version available. It has some trash and is very grainy.

Audio:

1.0 mono: The audio levels are so hot they boarder on distorted with sound effects that almost drown out the dialogue. It has occasional pops but is relatively clear other than the crappy mix.

Packaging:

The disc comes in a paper sleeve that lives in a plastic case. You can get more details about the set as a whole by checking out the Chilling (20 pack) guide.

Extras:

There are no extras of any kind.

Other Editions:

I didn't see anything to suggest that any release available is going to offer anything different than what I just described. Comments on content and quality are scarce, but as far as I can tell you'll get the same presentation quality no matter what you buy. There are no mention of extras for any of them.

Final Thoughts:

You can grab up whichever package offers you the best bargain because none are superior to the others. Check out additional details on the multi-packs I mentioned to see if they might be worth it.

Next up is the Drive In Movie Classics 50 pack.

Video:

1.33: This is as trashy and grainy as the other one.

Audio:

1.0 mono: There are some crackles and pops but not much persistent white noise. There's a little distortion because of the poor mix.

Packaging:

This is similar to the other set, just larger. Discs are contained in paper sleeves which fit inside a plastic case. You can read about the set as a whole in great detail in the Drive In Movie Classics (50 pack) guide.

Extras:

No extras for this one, either.
