4. Sleeping Beauty: 50th Anniversary Platinum Edition DVD ~ DVD

The list author says:
	"One of the best ANIMATED feature films. Unfortunately, like anything else Disney, it's overpriced! You may save some cash by not getting the platinum edition. If it's returned to the vault, try e-bay."

5. Are You Being Served?: The Complete Collection, Series 1-10 [14 Discs] DVD ~ Mollie Sugden

The list author says:
	"Leave it to the British to serve up the absolute best you can get in COMEDY. The complete TV series, 69 episodes each of 30-minutes duration, has extremely high replay value as well. Steep price."

6. Jurassic Park Adventure Pack (Jurassic Park/ The Lost World: Jurassic Park/ Jurassic Park III) (3 DVDs) DVD ~ Sam Neill

The list author says:
	"Probably the best CREATURE FEATURE, but only the first film. The sequel is crap, the third okay. Another excellent creature feature is Gremlins. A pleasantly watchable low budget feature is Crocodile."

7. Bonnie and Clyde (Two-Disc Special Edition) DVD ~ Faye Dunaway

The list author says:

8. Exorcist, the DVD ~ Ellen Burstyn

The list author says:
	"The Exorcist still offers the best in DEMONIC HORROR, but don't get this 3-disc pack. Like Jurassic Park, the sequel is crap, but the third film is actually quite spooky."

9. Titanic (Widescreen) DVD ~ Leonardo DiCaprio

The list author says:
	"No contest. This is, to date, the best in the DISASTER film category. Having said that, make it a point to watch The Day After Tomorrow as well."

11. Poltergeist (25th Anniversary Edition) DVD ~ JoBeth Williams

The list author says:
	"Probably the best in the GHOST STORY category, but take a look at Sidney Furie's The Entity, a vastly underrated heart-pounding gem starring Barbara Hershey."

12. Doctor Zhivago (Widescreen Special Edition, 2 Discs) DVD ~ DVD

The list author says:
	"Absolutely the best HISTORICAL epic. It edges out Gone With the Wind because of the perfect blending of music and film. Don't settle for anything less than the remastered 5.1 surround sound edition"

16. Bram Stoker's Dracula (Two-Disc Collector's Edition) DVD ~ Francis Ford Coppola

The list author says:
	"Dracula will always win hands-down in the VAMPIRE FILM category. First, the version with Gary Oldman, then Frank Langella, then Louis Jourdan. But check out the TV series Kindred: The Embraced as well"

17. Noir: The Complete Series (Anime Classics)
