What's featured here is a horror / thriller lot (3 VHS's + DVD) for these 2 John Carpenter masterpieces, Oscar-nominated Starman (1984) original VHS-release and 2005 DVD with mini-booklet still inside, & the 1999 Widescreen and very-1st \ original 1982-releases of The Thing '82 on VHS. I've watched all 3 tapes. The Thing '82-tape has some flickers for the first few mins. & then it's good for the rest of the way. The other 2 VHS's play great. The DVD is in great condition too. All are rewound. NONE are rentals. These definitely are collector's items and worthy of any JC "John Carpenter" fan's movie library. Overall, what you see is what u get. Fans of the genres & the actors would probably enjoy 'em in general.
