I just picked up...



These sets always confuse me!...

It is in the database as

Title: The Midnight Horror Collection - Killjoy Trilogy
Edition:

This is obviously wrong... for two reasons... "Killjoy Trilogy" is no where on the case (front, back or spine) And we use a colon instead of a dash for these.

I see 3 possible correct (per rules) titles... which needs to be used for the online database?

Title: The Midnight Horror Collection
Edition:

Title: The Midnight Horror Collection: Killjoy / Killjoy 2 / Killjoy 3
Edition:

Title: Killjoy / Killjoy 2 / Killjoy 3
Edition: The Midnight Horror Collection

Something else you would probably need to know... there is many other "Midnight Horror Collection" releases out there.

Some with subtitles...

The Midnight Horror Collection: Road Trip to Hell


Region 1

Released: 8/24/2010

Widescreen 




The Midnight Horror Collection: Dark Forces


All Regions

Released: 4/5/2011

Widescreen 






Some without subtitles...

The Midnight Horror Collection - Killjoy Trilogy


All Regions

Released: 3/6/2012

Widescreen 




The Midnight Horror Collection


Region 1

Released: 10/12/2010

Widescreen 





So let me hear your thoughts on what the correct title for the online... per the rules... these releases should have.

I believe this would be the correct way to title this profile.

That is my first instinct as well now that I see how many of these "Midnight Horror Collection" sets there are out there.

All 3 movies on a single side DVD... that sucks.  Oh well... what else should I expect with so cheap... got it out of the $5 bargain bin at Walmart.

Well since the spine on all of the one's I have just say The Midnight Horror Collection, I would say that is the title of the DVD.

The Midnight Horror Collection: Killjoy / Killjoy 2 / Killjoy 3

Went to the Echo Bridge catalog: this one is not listed anymore. All of the others are titled The Midnight Horror Collection: Urban Legends or Blood Predators, etc. whatever is listed where the Charles Band Presents on this cover is located.
There are 2 other Charles Band Presents in the catalog The Midnight Horror Collection: Puppet Master & The Midnight Horror Collection: Puppet Masters V.2, the way they are listed in the catalog.
So it should be Listed as The Midnight Horror Collection: Charles Band Presents and probably : Killjoy at the end.
But The Midnight Horror Collection should be first in the title.

And then what would be the original title. Menu screen says Killjoy Trilogy with the 3 movie titles listed.

While this is true, when there are multiple items on the front cover, that can be seen as a title, the spine is a good place to check to determine which of those items is the actual title.

I agree that the "Charles Band Presents" should be there, as that's how the "Road Trip to Hell" is titled.

Title: Killjoy / Killjoy 2 / Killjoy 3
Edition: The Midnight Horror Collection: Charles Band Presents

I have the Road Trip to Hell set and it's actually Midnight Horror Collection: Road Trip to Hell all in the title with no edition. Think I did that by accident looking at the notes, but others voted for it.

It probably should be:
Title - The Midnight Horror Collection
Edition - Charles Band Presents: Killjoy

... and Road Trip should be:
Title - The Midnight Horror Collection
Edition - Road Trip to Hell

Unless I'm totally off, and if I am, please explain.

So with that thinking the title for The Midnight Horror Collection (Also has 8 ovie Pack) on the cover along with the movie titles. so the title of this DVD would be The Legend of Sorrow Creek / Prom Night / Below / I Am Omega / Evil Bong / Meridian / Dwemonic Toys / Decadent Evil  edition: The Midnight Horror Collection: 8 Movie Pack.

That's my thinking also. It's suppose to be the title of the DVD not the contents.

The Spine just reads - The Midnight Horror Collection.
