Although this item is described as having special features, none are listed on the product package as with all other DVD's. Returned. I've seen the movie and ordered it especially for the special features, however, they seem to have omitted them in this double feature edition.

This is lot better watching since there are only two movies to watch BUT it's still the same receipe.

Fun to watch though.

Personally, I like "Return" better than "Trial" but both films are great. I think "Return" does a better job of keeping with the continum of the old TV series than "Trial" does however.

In "Return", we discover that David Banner hasn't become the Hulk in two years. In those two years, he has been working on the cure to his ailment and living with a fellow scientist named Maggie Shaw. All hell breaks loose however when a colleague from the past named Donald Blake shows up with his own problem named Thor! That, along with terriorists that want to steal the very device that may free Banner from his Hulk curse, makes it a good thrill ride!

In "Trial", we see that David has moved northwest to a city that's never identified. Once there, he tries to help a woman who is sexual assaulted by two thugs that work for the crime boss The Kingpin! During the melee, he turns into the Hulk and is later arrested for the attack! Matt Murdock, a blind lawyer, comes to David's aid both as a lawyer and as his vigilante alter ego DareDevil. This is more of a DareDevil film than a Hulk film but it does contain one of the best "Hulk Out" scenes ever in a dream sequence in the courtroom!

Overall, this is worth the money!

1988's "Return of the Incredible Hulk" marks the return of Bill Bixby as the tortured David Banner who has a ego that is full of green rage. He must stop a sinister criminal with the help of a norse god named " Thor".

Then 1989's " Trial of the Incredible Hulk", Banner is in New York and is accused of hurting a woman in a subway. He gets help by a blind lawyer and superhero named " Matt Murdock" ( a.k.a. Daredevil) to find the Kingpin ( Jonathan Rhyes Davies) who's behind it.

Both movies are actually well done and action packed, but Trial of the Incredible Hulk does have a continuty error such as David Banner has a beard in the first half then he turns into a clean shaven hulk. Despite the flaws in these movies, they are quite enjoyable even for the incredible hulk fan.

This is my favorite super hero. I love the incredible hulk A.K.A The hulk. For my birthday my brother recorded 40 episodes of the real show.

The Incredible Hulk Returns: It gives me honor to recommend this movie to you. This is thee movie of 1988, guaranteed! And movie that made me a Hulk fan, so here it goes my recommendation. Now for me I didn't know single thing about the Hulk so the movie was kind of hard to understand at first but that didn't change the fact that this was great movie. Doctor David Bruce Banner is a fugitive well not him the other him, you see when he gets angry you wouldn't like him. He turns into a monster a green monster. But no need to worry he hasn't been his other self in two years well until the only thing that can match his strength comes into the picture The Mighty Thor, that's right Thor fans Thor! That is when you are taken from your living room into a front seat view of Thor VS The Incredible Hulk! And that's only in the beginning of the movie and Thor's music theme is one of the best intro themes since Superman.
Trial Of The Incredible Hulk: Matt Murdock is a blind attorney from Hells Kitchen NY, and he isn't just your regular blind man. He lives in a world were crime runs all over the place even in a blue uniform and it's all run by The Kingpin, and he hates it. But one day his life takes a turn on the weird side when he meats a strange bearded man. This man is being accused for something he didn't do and only Matt believes him. The territory is new for this bearded man he keeps on hearing about The Daredevil the only man who can break The Kingpin. This bearded man will change Matt Murdock's life forever because the bearded man doesn't like getting angry!
I hope you enjoy these fantastic Marvel Movies and share them with all your loved ones and friends.

Buy these movies! THe first movie,David banner is living happily with his girlfriend. He has not been the hulk in 2 years. he hopes to keep it that way. He faked his death as David Banner. He is now changed his name to Banion. David Banion. He found a good job working in the dream job: the study of gamma activity.He makes an invention that could take the hulk away forever... But then a friend of Banner's from college stops Banion. He knows that Banion is really Banner. He shows Banner Thor: THe Norse god that he is in control of...and when Thor got thirsty, he got mad and destroyed the machine. And Banner gets angry and uncovers the living beast that was thought of as dead: the incredible hulk! Great behind-the-scenes footage and documentaries on the actors. The second movie was not as good as the first one. Daredevil meets the hulk... GREEEAAAT MOVIES ALL HULK FANS SHOULD OWN!!

'The Incredible Hulk Returns' - 4 stars.

It has been two years since David Banner turned into The Hulk. Now, he believes he has found a way to cure himself once and for all. But his plans are screwed up when a young man from his past shows up and claims to be in the possession of Thor's hammer.

This is not the greatest story, but the acting and dialogue are surprisingly excellent.

'The Trial of the Incredible Hulk' - 3 stars.

David Banner is in jail for a crime he did not commit. Only blind attorney Matt Murdock (Daredevil) believes he is telling the truth. Too much attention is on the villain (Kingpin) instead of either of the heroes.

This DVD set is excellent for anyone who remembers the series (which deserves to be on DVD in its entirety) and wished the current movie was not in theaters.

This DVD special set has two movies that were aired well after the series ran out, which highlighted the power of this 'incredible' series. The fisrt movie, 'The INcredible Hulk Returns' is not very good as Banner/Hulk teams up with Thor and his earthly contact. The Thor ledgend is water-downed. This movie is probably one star, but the second movie, though with it took many liberties with the Dare Devil ledgend, is actually pretty good (except the flying crafts special effects at the end). Rex Smith is a pretty good Dare Devil. The plot, filming, and Hulk/Banner story intertwines nicely.

The added DVD features involving Stan Lee and Lou Ferrigno are great! It is what makes this DVD a great buy. One gets an inside scoop on the creation and development of the Hulk and Marvel comics. The special on Lou Ferrigno is outstanding. One gets to expierence is life via body building and his family and it has such a personal touch, it rivals 'Pumping Iron.'

For any comic book, Hulk, TV or body builder, this special set is a great pick. It should also be noted that the Incredible Hulk succeeded as a TV series and movie because of three things: Nice story telling, Bill Bixby, and Lou Ferrigno. They should be applauded for soing such a great job on a comc book turned TV sries, and in this set - TV movies.

I figured someone would cash in on Hulk-mania by bringing back the old TV show. I picked these up having not seen either movie since they were first broadcast. I had only vague memories of what happened, but I remembered liking them. Ya know what? I still do. Sure, as an adult I can find fault with some of the silly dialogue or bad effects, but there's still something in me that loves the old TV Hulk and these movies take me back to being a kid. Few things can do that.

I'm sure I'll enjoy the future releases of the actual episodes of the show more than these specials, but they sure did a good job on their own.
