Just to stop the lame "Nanny" jokes before they begin:

It is NOT the Fran Drescher sitcom, it's an obscure "hagsploitation" movie with Bette Davis.

Weird collection of the Frankenstein and Dracula movies. Why not just release all those movies together in one collection?

Too bad the "Vampire Lovers" isn't included. It's the best adaptation of J. Sheridan le Fanu's "Carmilla," thought that's not saying much (e.i., "Vampires vs. Zombies."

ONE MILLION YEARS BC Anamorphic?

THAT is the real question

I think that these films are supposed to be remastered and several discs contain extras not on the warners discs, according to the amazon extras list...

edit: Also, I think that all the films are in their original ratios....
