Summary: The Monsters Are Loose!
Review: ALL MONSTERS ATTACK! is a great collection of sci-fi/horror trailers and extras: Movies that "baby boomers" like myself remember watching on TV and in theaters as a kid! Giants and human-sized monsters run rampant!

The overall quality is excellent, keeping in mind the source material is not digitally remastered. There are but a few trailers that are really lacking in picture and sound quality, but the contents of this DVD are priceless! B-movie fans and Godzilla/Kaiju enthusiasts are in for a real treat!

OPERATION PLUMBOB could have been omitted from this collection... Unless one was a student learning about nuclear energy back in the 1950's, one may find this short film rather boring. It could have been replaced by perhaps two or three more theatrical trailers, such as the one for FRANKENSTEIN CONQUERS THE WORLD. Now there's a movie that should be put on DVD! Or perhaps the trailer for VALLEY OF THE DRAGONS, which contains the classic line, "Shoot anything with hair on it that moves!"

All in all, ALL MONSTERS ATTACK! is quite enjoyable. Recommended!

Summary: Big Monsters = Big Fun
Review: Here's a real treat for us classic monster and sci-fi fans. Check out that cover art--it's a replica of an Aurora plastic model kit that many of us recall from childhood.

Fifty creature feature trailers will keep you occupied for awhile. Among the highlights: KING KONG, SON OF KONG, THE BEAST FROM 20,000 FATHOMS, MOTHRA, IT CONQUERED THE WORLD, THEM, DESTROY ALL MONSTERS, THE BLOB, THE KILLER SHREWS (darn funny trailer). Many, many more, including the wonderful Sinbad films.

As you might expect, the quality of the clips varies greatly. Overall, the picture and sound quality is acceptable. The 1950's nuclear safety film is a hoot!

If you like these kind of films, you really should add this one to your collection. Even if you could never sit through some of cheesy flicks represented here, the trailer compilation is a fun party disc. Recommended.

Summary: "Trailers rule...Monsters drule"
Review: I couldn't wait for this dvd's release. Packaged like an Aurora toy
kit from the 1970's This disc represents the top 50's list of every
beast to swim,crawl,fly or hop across the silver screen.The quality
as always with a collection of this sort runs from great(Tarantula,
The deadly Mantis are fairly decent prints)to not so great ("Mighty
Joe Young","King Kong" showed video lines and scratches) But there
were equally a great deal of surprises like"The beast of hollow mountain", "Goliath and dragon" and the rare "Mothra" teaser.
Also a operation plumpbob documentry showing the real side of
atomic testing via '50's bombtest footage & 2 other featurettes

I can't imagine why "Allday" would put a non giant title like the
"She creature / It conquered the world" double feature instead of
say "Frankenstein conquers the world" or "The giant claw" but I suppose they had to use what was avaliable. Maybe with luck this
disc will spark the movie mogels to put more of these great films
onto dvd.

Review: i think it funny that big bunny rabbits invade arizona and gigantic grasshoppers kick butt in london

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Ruined by very poor source materials
Review: This is a great collection, I find trailers like these hilarious, the outrageous headlines, the over the top commentaries just crack me up. The only problem with this collection is that they've been sourced from very poor material, no effort at all has been made in restoring them. I've seen some of these in a lot better condition on other DVDs. If some sort of restoration effort had of been made I would rate this 5 stars, until then it only gets 2. I hope next time they release a collection that concentrates on 1950's and 1960's B-grade science fiction trailers with an effort made in restoring them.
