| | Posted: | | | | I just picked up...  These sets always confuse me!... It is in the database as Title: The Midnight Horror Collection - Killjoy Trilogy Edition:This is obviously wrong... for two reasons... "Killjoy Trilogy" is no where on the case (front, back or spine) And we use a colon instead of a dash for these. I see 3 possible correct ( per rules) titles... which needs to be used for the online database? Title: The Midnight Horror Collection Edition:Title: The Midnight Horror Collection: Killjoy / Killjoy 2 / Killjoy 3 Edition:Title: Killjoy / Killjoy 2 / Killjoy 3 Edition: The Midnight Horror Collection Something else you would probably need to know... there is many other "Midnight Horror Collection" releases out there. Some with subtitles... The Midnight Horror Collection: Road Trip to Hell Region 1 Released: 8/24/2010 Widescreen The Midnight Horror Collection: Dark Forces All Regions Released: 4/5/2011 Widescreen Some without subtitles... The Midnight Horror Collection - Killjoy Trilogy All Regions Released: 3/6/2012 Widescreen The Midnight Horror Collection Region 1 Released: 10/12/2010 Widescreen So let me hear your thoughts on what the correct title for the online... per the rules... these releases should have. | | | | Pete |

| | Posted: | | | | That is my first instinct as well now that I see how many of these "Midnight Horror Collection" sets there are out there. All 3 movies on a single side DVD... that sucks.  Oh well... what else should I expect with so cheap... got it out of the $5 bargain bin at Walmart. | | | | Pete |

| | Posted: | | | | Well since the spine on all of the one's I have just say The Midnight Horror Collection, I would say that is the title of the DVD.
The Midnight Horror Collection: Killjoy / Killjoy 2 / Killjoy 3
Treat it the same way as Star Trek: |

| | Posted: | | | | Went to the Echo Bridge catalog: this one is not listed anymore. All of the others are titled The Midnight Horror Collection: Urban Legends or Blood Predators, etc. whatever is listed where the Charles Band Presents on this cover is located.
There are 2 other Charles Band Presents in the catalog The Midnight Horror Collection: Puppet Master & The Midnight Horror Collection: Puppet Masters V.2, the way they are listed in the catalog.
So it should be Listed as The Midnight Horror Collection: Charles Band Presents and probably : Killjoy at the end.
But The Midnight Horror Collection should be first in the title.
And then what would be the original title. Menu screen says Killjoy Trilogy with the 3 movie titles listed. | | | | Last edited: by ateo357 |

While this is true, when there are multiple items on the front cover, that can be seen as a title, the spine is a good place to check to determine which of those items is the actual title. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

I agree that the "Charles Band Presents" should be there, as that's how the "Road Trip to Hell" is titled.

Title: Killjoy / Killjoy 2 / Killjoy 3
Edition: The Midnight Horror Collection: Charles Band Presents I have the Road Trip to Hell set and it's actually Midnight Horror Collection: Road Trip to Hell all in the title with no edition. Think I did that by accident looking at the notes, but others voted for it.  It probably should be: Title - The Midnight Horror Collection Edition - Charles Band Presents: Killjoy ... and Road Trip should be: Title - The Midnight Horror Collection Edition - Road Trip to Hell Unless I'm totally off, and if I am, please explain. |

--------------- So with that thinking the title for The Midnight Horror Collection (Also has 8 ovie Pack) on the cover along with the movie titles. so the title of this DVD would be The Legend of Sorrow Creek / Prom Night / Below / I Am Omega / Evil Bong / Meridian / Dwemonic Toys / Decadent Evil edition: The Midnight Horror Collection: 8 Movie Pack.  |

It probably should be:
Title - The Midnight Horror Collection
Edition - Charles Band Presents: Killjoy
... and Road Trip should be:
Title - The Midnight Horror Collection
Edition - Road Trip to Hell
Unless I'm totally off, and if I am, please explain. That's my thinking also. It's suppose to be the title of the DVD not the contents. |
