Haha. Heath is so me. Heath 2 weeks ago: "I got too much stuff, ya'll" Heath today: "Ummmm...."

half way through the video and i don't recognize a single title so far!!! great collection haul!

Absolutely love your channel. I do the same myself search Car boot sales and charity shops for old VHS tapes of movies that I watched with my Dad and old musical LPs that my Mother would play ( she loved Mario Lanzer ) it's like a worm blanket of love that i miss from the time that they were still with me . I was buzzing when I found Gods Gun on RU-vid my Dad loved that movie . And your absolutely correct sometimes you can't find things on VHS , DVD , Blu-ray or 4K so streaming is OK

I've been recently discovering a lot of films of the 70s which were before my time. 10 years ago I had very little interest. You never know what people will be into and what they will be interested to discover. Naturally these films will be less accessible and the audience will dwindle, but I do believe there will always be someone interested, even if they don't know it yet. It's absolutely wonderful seeing these films find a worthy home and it was a lot of fun seeing you discover them one by one. Stay awesome Heath and keep sending the good vibes.

I would love for you to interview Sam Sherman! The man has an endless supply of classic movie knowledge. The two of you would work well together.

Never heard of these movies. Now I can add some of them to my watchlist!

These old western DVDs are great! I have a lot of these films in those 50 or 100 movie packs. You get the movies but you lose out on the cool artwork. I put the ones I do have as individual discs in sleeves.

Older Alpha cases were very nice. Hard to get those thick ones now. I have a bin I kept for replacements but had to recycle the rest. Too many. Great score.

My dad would have lost his mind over that collection. He loved the Poverty Row westerns. He preferred them to the big studio ones. B-movie westerns and Poverty Row westerns were his thing.

Love the artwork on some of those older movies.

WOW! That's a huge acquisition for your collection. The only time I did something like that but at half the scale was when I bought 150 Severin DVD titles during one of their sales. Good showing and cool video Heath!👉🙂👈

In the 70s in Fort Worth, TX on Camp Bowie Blvd. There was a bar called Quick Draw and their deal was they played old B-westerns. Lots of Bob Steele. That was back in the days of the nationwide nostalgia craze.

I actually own some of the Alpha Video DVDs. I love their stuff.

The ventriloquist cowboy Max Terhune, and his dummy Elmer, appeared in 21 "Three Mesquiteers" entries, and all 24 of the films in the "Range Buster" series. And, yes, a ventriloquist cowboy is as weird and wonderful as you'd expect.

Heath that collection is amazing. I think Quentin Tarantino will be calling you for some source material one day. I don’t know if you are allowed to do this or if it will cost you money, could you place some of these old westerns on your channel and have your own commentaries while we all watch? I know you want to keep these alive but in some way have your own western channel?

This is all sorts of awesome! I had all of John Wayne’s ‘30’s B’s on VHS and loved them all. Fun stuff to go through!

Excellent Collection! Very Exciting Indeed. You're in for some fun viewing these! I love the old tv Westerns.

Nice seeing such a big collection now in good hands! I don't know, what they're about, we didn't have those here ein Germany, but I dig the coverart... in those sleeves, thy look like vintage comic books. 🙂 Congrats.

I never thought I'd say this, heath, but you're making the idea of sleeving some DVDs pretty appealing right now

Thanks, Heath! God bless and stay safe!

This channel is a gift. Thanks for all your uploads. I've discovered so much here.

my mom (72 yr old) would love those old westerns

What an interesting collection, especially when so many are sealed! It's pretty cool that this is a curated collection of westerns. It's a great example of a collection rather than a hoard!

WOW! Congratulations on such a beautiful haul.

Now THAT'S a collection!

Awesome collection

Bob Steele was in a couple of john Wayne's movie when he got old.it was like a passing of the torch.

The Bold Caballero starring Robert Livingston is very significant in that is the first Zorro movie shot in two strip technicolor and with sound. For many years the color version was thought to be lost, it was found and what you have on that DVD is the color version, I have an old black and white version on VHS as well as a DVD of the color version. Yes I did enjoy this movie as I think you will as well.

Great! Never seen so many 'Ten Gallon' Hats! :-) a sprinkling of great actors in there too. Thanks

Great movie etc haul Heath happy trails exploring them all!

Wow! Roy Rogers is one of my favorites. There’s a movie ..Son of Trigger, I swear they just made horses actually fight in that one. I remember jumping when trigger got clopped in the face and was close to tears when they said he was blind. But he still went out and fought the bad horse in the end. Good stuff. Also crazy stunts. All of them are professional horse handlers and circus performers

I know Kino and Arrow dabble, but my bold prediction is that the boutique label world is gonna go nuts on these kind of movies after they run out of hong kong action movies lol. Only after 11 more shaw brothers boxsets though

I'm glad these found a good home. I know you will appreciate them Heath

Damn...this is a great pickup...

Looks like a wellspring of potential terrific material. Great entertainment to go to between big feature viewing. I find these classic westerns are great at the end of a busy day. Pop one of these bad boys in and they are almost always enjoyable. Can't pass up a great deal! Enjoy!

That's one helluva haul there Heath! Fantastic score!

Looks great. Glad you are excited. Looking at that haul makes me anxious. I wouldn't be able to cope with that many genre-specific movies.

Gabby Hayes always reminded me of earnest from Jim varney

I've never seen Mystery Mountain but would check it out. I enjoy a classic Western from time to time.

My favorite finds are double features. Double features are what makes Drive-In, Grindhouse, and Midnight movie watching fun. I think I own all of MGM's Midnight movie double features. This is how I built up the bulk of my movie collection. There are times I think I am overdoing it collecting blu-rays and 4K's, because I always find myself putting on those old Alpha Video or Image Entertainment DVD's when I'm actually watching movies. The artwork is so much nicer, and the snapper cases have double sided artwork or a brief essay about the movie. I like finding the Anchor Bay Hammer and Drive-In double features, but some of them are miserably expensive online.

That haul is a channel in itself.

Sick! Nice haul!!!

I have some Alpha releases of old crime and gangster movies. A bit over a year ago I bought a 300 plus CD collection of mostly classical music. I'm still going through it.

Edgar G Ulmer - Texas cheapies- Amazing Transparent Man and Beyond the Time Barrier.

DVD? What no 4k?! Just kidding. I buy DVD's all the time.

That is awesome!!! I love westerns. Have a huge collection of them. Ken Maynard was born not to far from where i live. Im in a cowboy reenacting group and we do an event there for Ken Maynard Days.

Yes on speaking with Sam Sherman. Would love to see him on Cereal At Midnight. Met him once. Super nice.

This is wonderful! Really cool stuff.

1. I hope your wife is very understanding 2. I hope your floor is reinforced...Love the last ride Hank shirt!

I'd be interested in your duplicates.

Wow 😮 other than awesome video man 😎!

Others may have covered some of this in the comments below...but just in case There were 24 Range Busters films in all, with folks drifting in and out of the line-up over the course of the series. Only Max (Alibi) Terhune - and his dummy Elmer - appeared in all 24 installments. There are a few films in which Elmer appears to have acquired self-awareness and presents as a sentient, independent being. Keep an eye out for those, they're pretty creepy, if you're in the right mood. All of the Monogram Range Busters appeared at one time or another as one of the Three Mesquiteers over at Republic. I'd have to look this up to confirm, but I'm pretty sure the main line-up of Ray "Crash" Corrigan, Dusty King and Max Terhune appeared together as a team in both series. A lot of these B's were filmed at The Corrigan Ranch - so he was getting paychecks from both ends. You're going to become very familiar with the twin beer signs outside the barroom entrance. I'm a big fan of the trio western series: Range Busters, Three Mesquiteers, Rough Riders (with Buck Jones and Tim McCoy), Trail Blazers (which featured Ken Maynard, Hoot Gibson and Tom Steele among the teams). Also gotta love Johnny Mack Brown, owner/operator of the most devastating haymake West of Gower Gulch. Have fun! And thanks for continuing to highlight these lively films. Any copies of "Mystery Mountain" left? I've been meaning to order that from one source or another for a while.

how could possibly watch all those?! That being said, very cool and you'll have fun trying!

Im aslo buying a 300 movie set

Nice Buster Crab (flash gordon, buck rogers, Tarzan) westerns!

I grew up in the 1960s and 70s in NYC. I think by then the popularity of westerns was fading with fewer westerns on TV every year. What we did watch on TV were the movies of the 1930s and 1940s many of which I now own on BD/DVD. Grainy b/w prints cut up with commercials but that's where I started to love these movies. I was so happy to buy the VHS of Casablanca, it looked better on my TV than any broadcast of it ever did. Citizen Kane used to be broadcast on WOR-TV in NYC. An awful dark muddy print but that's all that was around back then. It's only when I bought the restored version on DVD in 2001 that I could fully appreciate that movie. Even the VHS versions of Citizen Kane were all pretty bad starting with the first Nostalgia Merchant release (catalog# VH8002), and even the last official VHS release on the Turner (catalog# 2053) label was poor.

Im aslo getting a 300 movie set

Dam Heath that was a must buy...........TRUE entertainment...........So dam COOL....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alpha DVD's are so nice.I can't believe you to throw them away

Alpha Video has some amazing obscure stuff. Old films struck from collectors 16 mm reels. I would guess all of their stuff is in the public domain, but what really bothers me is that over time they started putting their logo in the bottom right corner of the screen. It would come and go. I never was happy with that. Amazing haul!

True Lies and Abyss 4K pre-orders dropped today. Are you planning on doing a video when they release and how they blus/4K have been delayed for years by Cameron? It’s been a saga. I never thought we’d see the day!

Great pickups Heath, depending on the price.

Heath, you should do a giveaway of your duplicates. There might be people out there (myself included) who are really into B-Westerns like yourself

There are silent movies that the only way to watch them is on Alpha Video DVD's. Eyes of the Mummy (1918) for example. Bela Lugosi's first movie, Daughter of the Night (1921) I never would have discovered without Alpha Video and AV's prints are public domain they can be aired on character hosting shows, like Elvira or Zacherly.

If you ever find a copy of the western The Sunset Princess from 1918 I would love to know how it looks.

One question - you mention towards the end of the video 'I'm going to watch these for the rest of my life' Do you have/keep at least one DVD/Blu-Ray player (still boxed) that you have put away as a spare playback device? Maybe in 10 years or so they won't be for sale/available new. Or do you think that's not the case?

😮 I'd find room for the cases. 😁

Maybe you can review or showcase a western film each Wednesday, for #westernwednesdays!

Always a mixed bag with Alpha but those are some uncommon titles so I get the want. I was always fine with their transfers on the old tube TV but some months back I popped in a Sheena disc on the 4K and it was pretty wretched. Washed out and harshly compressed. An Alpha horror title from the 70s I also checked out fared better.

What the quality of those Alpha Video releases? They are really cheap on Deep Discount, but I have not pulled the trigger on any? Like are they watchable on a big screen 4k TV?

YeAh, bUT dO tHEy hAvE sLiPcovERs?!😲

How do you handle the non-anamorphic widescreen DVDs? I found that using the zoom function on a 16:9 TV for anything larger than about 40" isn't really watchable as the pixels take over the image. I guess I could watch them on my 20" Sony CRT, but the big screen is more fun. This is why, while I don't mind watching DVD, I shy away if I can't 100% confirm that it is anamorphic or the original aspect ratio is 4:3.

Darn tooting... you'll need a bag or two of jerky to wade yer way through that lot! Alpha video?? Hmmm... I think I might have some ancient horror film on the label, but I tend to 🐂 clear of them usually. But ya know what yer gonna git with 'em. So..., "you pays yer money...".

Nice haul Heath! Can I purchase the empty cases from you when you sleeve them?😉

LEAVE THEM SEALED & GET THEM GRADED!!!!! hehe Great pick-up! Nice mix of all types of forms - movies, TV, serials...what a score!

You’re brave to pick up so many Alpha Video discs at once. I hope it didn’t cost so much. It really and truly sucks when Alpha is the only physical media option for a lesser known title as they are just about the bottom of the barrel for quality. It is rare for an Alpha version to be solid or better than other options but it does occasionally happen. Every one I’ve ever picked up has been a total roll of the dice because you never know what quality to expect. I’ve had ones be watchable or halfway decent and then others are among the absolute worst presentations I’ve ever seen on any format and make even bad RU-vid uploads of PD materials look good. And then there’s those awful stinky cheap plastic cases on a lot of them! Those drive me nuts so hopefully this lot is mostly the better standard cases. For me the biggest thing Alpha has are various serials that don’t have any other releases but even those I’ve tried are usually deplorable quality. Their discs for Don Winslow of the Navy for example are among the worst transfers I’ve ever seen.

I wonder what the story is behind all these. The person clearly spent a lot of time selecting these, yet none watched? Like others have commented, I haven’t heard of a single one of these over 10 minutes in!

We got it all on UHF...

Do any of these have a Blu-ray by now?

This video may be In Color, but is it In Living Color ... On NBC? (Cue Color Palette Peacock) An interview with Samuel Sherman would be too cool; by all means, let's see it!!! (I must express amusement at a title like "Boots of Destiny"; reminds me of the Lon Chaney Jr INNER SANCTUM title, "Pillow of Death", which brings to mind the possibility of a series of genteel, refined British mysteries with titles like "Doily of Blood" or "Teacup of Terror" or something like that.) By the time you said "completely boxed in", I pictured a thumbnail of your clutching hand emerging from a pile of DVD cases like an image out of Tales From The Crypt.

This guy is gonna bury himself in movies

The big question - how much for 300 western DVDs?

I thought you said not to buy big lots of movies?

First

Sorry I got to watych my Blu-ray physical media, Pina, right now. bye!

3 dollars well spent but I wouldn't have paid $4 for that set which should be torture viewing

Hey.... so which sleeves do you recommend for anyone looking to slim down their dvd collection? ... asking for a friend! ;)

the relapse is real. must've been a deal, because havent u been saying youre not gonna buy bulk due to space 😂?? great score. SEEEEAAALED... oh not sealed anymore. lol

This video is some legit DVD ASMR!! Intentional?? If not you may have a budding new video type 😂

Why if you dont know whats in the box

Did you not just make a video saying you were cutting back because you are totally out of room even with sleeping 🙀🙀🙀 wat was a reasonable price? No Range Rider or Kit Carson ?

…..why???

Such a waste of cases...

No disrespect but most of the Alpha releases I purchased were such garbage I put them in the garage sale. Public domain from any source they could get their hands on.

Alpha videos are poor quality.

You'll definitely be passing me in Roy Rogers viewing now. Still, you're clearly anti-physical media.

You always complain about your lack of space or talk about not just consuming and then do things like this just to make content. How about walk your own walk instead
