Description:
One of the greatest horror icons of the 20th century, Lon Chaney, Jr. lit up the screen in a wide variety of performances in every type of role imaginable. Now, here is the ultimate collection of Chaney rarities, never before available on DVD!
Manfish: In this eerie tale inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart," treasure seekers, native curses and the hideous haunting sound of a dead man's breathing conspire to drive a killer insane.
The Golden Junkman: One of Lon's rarest and best portrayals as an aging Greek immigrant who enrolls in college to earn the respect of his grown sons.
Lock-Up: An excellent crime-mystery starring Macdonald Carey, with Lon as a small town sheriff determined to capture the killer of a straying wife.
Special Bonus Feature: The Indestructible Man, for the first time from a 35mm source! This Lon Chaney horror staple can finally be seen in a crisp, clear edition unlike any previous release. Throw away those budget editions; this is the real deal!

It looks better than my public domain copy, but the resolution isn't up to DVD snuff, it jiggles in a very VHS-like way, and it has horizontal lines in it here and there that look suspiciously like video dropouts. Also, there's a lot of dirt on it. Just so you know.
Even so, it's always great to see Lon Chaney.

I was disappointed to learn that 2 of the 4 films in this collection were, in fact, half-hour t.v. shows. But if you're a fan of Lon Jr. (and I certainly am), it's kind of nice to have them. "The Golden Junkman" is by far the better of the two, with Chaney evoking sympathy as Greek immigrant. "Lock Up" is a standard prison drama.
Chaney fairs somewhat beter in "Manfish," a low-budget but still fairly attractive production, with some great underwater photography. Again, he's a sympathetic ... Read More

This DVD is a must have for any Lon Chney Fan. He is 1950's Lon Chnaey, haggered, weathered, still enthusiastic with his unique personality shinng thru.Manfish- is a real treat with lovely location shots and a fine plot.One problem at the end you see color by DeLuxein the credits but the print is black and white.The scuba and location shots would look great in color and I wish I could get a color print.The 2 Tv shows are very interesting. The Golden Junkman is a rare film in which Lon attempts an accent, ... Read More
