Title: This isn't really a review.
Review: This isn't really a review. I just feel that Amazon doesn't give enough information about this DVD collection. I'm adding this so any potential buyer might to be able to make an informed purchasing decision. This is a two disc set that contains six movies and ten bonus Christmas carols. So far, I have viewed one of the movies and spot checked the rest of them. Six movies on two discs is a lot of information crammed onto each disc and frankly, I wasn't expecting much in the way of quality. I made the purchase regardless however, and was delightfully surprise. The quality was quite nice, and far exceeded my expectations.Disc One:A Christmas Visitor (2002) TV Movie - 87 min - Drama - Director: Christopher Leitch - Stars: William Devane, Meredith Baxter and Dean McDermott.A Holiday to Remember (1995) - TV Movie - 90 min - Drama / Romance - Director: Jud Taylor - Stars: Connie Sellecca, Asia Vieira and Brenda Bazinet.Christmas Snow (1986) - TV Movie - 48 min - Drama / Family - Director: Gus Trikonis - Stars: Katherine Helmond, Sid Caesar and Melissa Joan Hart.Beyond Tomorrow a.k.a. Beyond Christmas (1940) - 84 min - Drama / Fantasy / Romance - Director: A. Edward Sutherland - Stars: Harry Carey, C. Aubrey Smith and Charles Winninger.Scrooge (1935) - 61 min - Drama / Family / Fantasy - Director: Henry Edwards - Stars: Seymour Hicks, Donald Calthrop and Robert Cochran.Disc Two:Angel in the Family (2004) - TV Movie - 87 min - Drama - Director: Georg Stanford Brown - Stars: Meredith Baxter, Ronny Cox and Natasha Gregson Wagner.Bonus Digital Audio: The Christmas Angels - contains ten Christmas carols; Hail Blessed Virgin Mary, Silent Night, Away in a Manger, O' Christmas Tree, The Coventry Carol, Angels We Have Heard On High, From Heaven High, Christians, Awake!, Hark! the Herald Angels Sing and As With Gladness.

Title: I was happy to add to my collection and didn't wait until ...
Review: I had recorded Connie Sellica and Randy Travis on VHS several years ago and watch it every Christmas. The sound was deteriorating and I upgraded to DVD for a more enjoyable experience. The additional five movies, I was happy to add to my collection and didn't wait until Christmas to enjoy them.

Title: Christmas without snow 6 DVD pack
Review: Christmas without snow 6 packTwo of the movies I did not like and did not watch them to the end, I would recommend three of the other movies to family and friends. It's also hard to get something you have not seen before as there are so many movies and so e with the same title but different story lines.

Title: Great value - 2 black & white movies
Review: Scrooge & Beyond Tomorrow are black & white. Had I paid attention to the year the movies were released, I would have noticed that but probably would have bought the set anyway since it is a really good deal with some great movies.

Title: 6-film collector's set Vol. 2: The Christmas Angels...
Review: Very entertaining, family oriented. All have good story lines with a moral, which most of the "now" movies are lacking. Takes me back to the years when society wasn't so violent and politically & glamorously correct.

Title: Really good bargain collection
Review: For what you're getting here, this is a great deal, even though not all of the movies included would rate four stars individually."A Christmas Visitor" probably is the strongest film included. Tearjerker about a dead young soldier who returns in tangible otherworldly form at Christmas. Well-written and good performances by the whole cast."Angel in the Family" (which, like the above, also stars Meredith Baxter) also deals with the return of a deceased loved one at Christmas. A very strong entry which is at one time both funny, heartwarming and gut-wrenching."A Holiday to Remember" is more hokey, especially with leading man Randy Travis as the long-ago ex-fiance of a successful career woman who comes back across the country to her small hometown from the big city. The tangent with the runaway is a bit annoying."Christmas Snow" has the shortest run time at just under an hour and deals with an older woman who runs a candy shop with her two adopted young children. Decent but not the best. Featuring a young Melissa Joan Hart."Beyond Tomorrow" is an interesting 1940 black-and-white film and not a Christmas movie in the strictest sense, although it does open with a Christmas setting. Three rich old lonely men make a bet on Christmas Eve to try to get some guests to a private dinner party and end up luring a young man and young woman. The three men later die in a plane crash and return as ghosts. (Yeah...more back-from-the-dead stuff.) An interesting inclusion and a better movie than I was expecting."Scrooge." Yet another version of this that I hadn't seen previously, a black-and-white film version that clocks in at an hour long. Not one of the more memorable efforts at the story although I did find it interesting that Jacob Marley is only heard and not seen.The included digital music is a nice bonus too.
