Full Moon Classics, Vol. 1 (contains some minor spoilers)
I love Full Moon movies and when I was researching the titles in this collection, Arcade sounded like a fun movie so I decided to buy it based on that. I wasn't disappointed. This collection contains 5 Full Moon movies.
Arcade (1993) starring Megan Ward, Peter Billingsley, Seth Green, and A.J. Langer is worth watching for the actors alone. The movie itself has horrible special effects, that I loved! The acting is good and the story is a lot of fun. Basically, it is about a group of teenagers that start playing a new video game called ARCADE. None of them realize how dangerous the game is until the people who are playing it starts to disappear.
Bad Channels (1992) starring Paul Hipp, Martha Quinn, and Charlie Spradling, ended up being one of my favorite movies from the collection. I saw the trailer and thought the movie was going to be horrible, I was wrong. The acting is good and so are the special effects and creatures. The movie is about a disc jockey who after a six month suspension returns. That night his radio station is taken over by a space alien that transports and shrinks women. I found it really amusing.
Netherworld (1992): A young man inherits his late father's estate and is shocked to discover that his father wants to be resurrected. He meets a woman who seduces him and introduces him to black magic. I didn't love this movie. The problem with it is that it just doesn't flow well.
Seedpeople (1992): Starring Sam Hennings and Andrea Roth. A man returns to his home town to research a meteorite that landed there. He soon discovers that the town people are acting strangely and realizes he and everyone else is in a lot of trouble. This movie is an average sci-fi movie. I didn't enjoy it as much as Arcade and Bad Channels, it is just not as fun to watch.
Shadowzone (1990) Starring Louise Fletcher and David Beecroft: After a person dies during a sleep experiment conducted by a group of NASA researchers, Captain Hickock goes to investigate. What he discovers is horrifying. This sci-fi movie takes it self seriously. It's not bad. I liked the actors and the script was pretty good.
Overall, the collection is worth buying if you love Full Moon classics or low budget sci-fi/horror movies. All of the dvds except Shadowzone contains a videozone/behind the scene featurette. The dvds are region free so they should work on all dvd players.

BAD CHANNELS 3.3/10
An alien lands in a small town and promptly takes over the local radio station. The disk jockey, Dan O' Dare, well known for his publicity stunts, becomes a hostage. The alien uses the radio station and Dan's amused audience to target and subsequently shrink women for his collection.
SHADOWZONE 4.4/10
After someone is killed in the subterranean project called "Shadowzone," a NASA captain is called in to investigate. In the project, sleeping subjects are induced into a deep EDS state whereby they become portals to a parallel universe. Unfortunately this causes adverse reactions in the subject, and something gets through the portal, the consequence of which is an attrition problem.
NETHERWORLD 3.6/10
A young man arrives at his father's mansion in Louisiana to discover that a secretive cult is using winged creatures to raise the dead to do their bidding.
SEEDPEOPLE 3.0/10
The sleepy little town of Comet Valley has been invaded by plants from outer space. Intent on taking over the Earth, the space plants have found a way to pollinate humans, thus turning them into walking seed carriers. Can the resourceful residents fight off the alien invaders, or is the planet doomed to become an alien garden?
