Man, that's some list!  I have a long way to go, because my list is as follows:

The Incredible Two-Headed Transplant/The Thing With Two Heads

Strange Invaders/Invaders From mars      I thought IFM was the '53 classic, but it wasn't.

Panic In Year Zero/Last Man On Earth

That's it!

Wade Williams has the '53 IFM. You should be able to get it at amazon and other places. Get the 50th Anni. SE.

Check out oldies.com for MM discs. They have a lot of them for around $5.

BTW, most of those single movie MM disc titles were rereleased in the dbl feature discs.

Man, they have a truckload of movies on that site!  I saw lots of movies I've been craving, at low prices!  I'm about due for some new ones - it's been awhile!

Be aware that the Alpha (ALP) DVDs are their issues of PD movies, so the quality varies, but is mostly typical PD quality. Great covers, though!

These are the ones I don't have in some form or another(although not necessarily under the Midnite Movies label.  I would like to eventually get most of them, especially WITCHFINDER GENERAL and MASTER OF THE WORLD.  I gave away all my duplicates already.

I'm not exactly sure what that means?

Oldies has WITCHFINDER GENERAL for $6.98. I would love a DVD of MASTER OF THE WORLD! I taped it from TCM, so I don't need the VHS. Would also like BURN, WITCH, BURN.

I don't have any of the Beach Party or biker stuff and Morons from Outer Space/Alien from L.A. would probably be the last one I'd buy.

I have the following

The Haunted Palace
Panic in the Year Zero/The Last Man on Earth
Countess Dracula/The Vampire Lovers

I would love to find more. Especially any that have Vincent Price.
Just remember. There are such things.

BaronLatos35

I only have two:

-Count Yorga/Return of Count Yorga

-Countess Dracula/The Vampire Lovers

Love them...

I just bought Countess Dracula/The Vampire Lovers at Walmart in a display of vampire movies (what with "Eclipse" just out). They also had The Return of Dracula/The Vampire.
