This boxset of Hammer films comes with four of the films in Blu-ray format plus inside each of the plastic disc holders there is also a small photo book with an essay covering the individual Hammer movie. There are interview extras as well and audio commentaries for the movies. For me, I now have a crystal clear copy of "The Terror Of The Tongs." The scene where actor Charles Lloyd Pack as Dr. Fu Chao finds out he, not Captain Sale, got injected with a hypodermic of deadly poison is by itself worth the price of admission. A scene good enough that it was copied in 2011's "Unknown," only less graphically in these PC times.
