I love the $2.50 movie bin at Wal-Mart. I bought sixteen movies and thirteen episodes for $5. Granted, these movies are worthy of MST3K (no, literally--one of them is Hercules Against the Moon Men is an episode), but the entire first season "21 Jump Street" are worth at least $2.50. As a lover of terrible movies, though, I think I will enjoy this collection. The collection itself is entitled "Clash of the Olympians." Mostly, they're Hercules movies and a few giant movies, all released between 1959-1964. The packaging is as cheap as used tissues, though. Each box is about as thick as two standard DVD cases, but contained within is each disc in a paper sleeve with a plastic window. That's the difference between a $5 movie and $2.50 movie.
I really do love terrible movies, though. Troy, for instance, is a terrible movie, but I can watch it thirty times in a row, though, I usually do watch it in French. Achilles is less whiny that way. I also happen to love Devon's Ghost, which you've never heard of, but is plain awful. And I love it.
Hopefully, the Clash of the Olympians collection will be equally terrible and enjoyable.
