Thanks for that Matt. A couple of films I haven't seen in that set. I might just have to add them to my collection.
Cheers

Thanks for the info, Matt. Terror of the Tongs is one of those films that I have never managed to see.
I think Devil Ship Pirates is an excellent picture and Mr Lee is wonderful in the lead role of Captain Robeles.

Referring to those four films in the set, I cannot remember ever seeing the Christopher lee titles. Of the many, many films that Mr Lee has made, there is quite a few lesser known titles that I am just starting to discover. No need to hang your head in shame at all.
I have just bought myself The Theatre Of Death, which I do not recall seeing, and I am looking forward to seeing what it is like.
Thanks for taking time out to peek at my sculpt aswell.
Take care, and have a scrumptous Easter.

Don't worry Kelly. Mr Lee has made so many movies over his 60 year career, I can guarantee that nobody on this site has seen all of them!
Of this boxset, I have only seen two of the films - Devil Ship Pirates (well worth a watch) and Pirates of Blood River.
This is what is so great about being a fan of Mr Lee - you can always find one of his films that you have never seen before!

From the three films I have only seen Pirates of Blood River, which I recommend. Hopefully this boxset will be available in Germany.

The ICONS OF ADVENTURE DVD is now available from Amazon.co.uk. I have these films on tape but I will probably update to DVD.
