Zombies! Werewolves! Atomic Mutation! Intergalactic Avians! Let this quartet of classic terrors take you back to the golden age of B-Movie Monsters!
A mob boss hires an ex-Nazi scientist to reanimate his dead thugs in Creature with the Atom Brain. An auto-accident survivor is used as an experimental subject to create a vaccine for nuclear fall-out with hair-raising side-effects in The Werewolf. Treasure hunters get more than they bargained for in the search for a cargo of diamonds that went down with a sunken ship when they discover the zombified crew members are guarding the loot in Zombies of Mora Tau. Meanwhile, an enormous bird from outer-space descends to chow down on the people of planet Earth in The Giant Claw!
Four fantastic feature presentations from prolific producer Sam Katzman with a bounty of brand new extras and a raft of new writing by a range of respected raconteurs. These Cold War Creatures are coming for you!

SUPER EDITION!
Thanks to Arrow Video for this set of B movies, it’s a fantastic set! Fantastic looking, crammed full of supplements and extras, 2 books/booklets, artcards, poster…….i am really satisfied with this release. The films themselves are made in black and white, 1950s sci fi/horror, made around the cold war era and consequently retaining alot of the atmosphere of the time. You may, or may not, like the movies but one thing is for sure - this is a must have boxset, just for the sheer volume of what’s on offer alone. Arrow have really packed this edition full of stuff, and i’d say this is up there with some of their best releases. Thanks Arrow, i am one happy bunny!!
