Criterions or legends (colorized).
Any thoughts???
I haven´t found any comparisons yet - or any review of legends dvd either!
Here's a review of the criterion edition! ;)

Hi, Is the Criterion version easy to find? I'm interested in seeing this too. Have you seen it before? Any information would be helpful.
Thanks for your time and let me leave you with this thought...
A movie goer can be anyone seeing a new movie in a theatre
A movie fan really likes to watch at home or in the theatre
A movie critic is paid sometimes to analyse films but it can be just a job
But a true movie lover enjoys movies whether they are old or new, good or bad, at home or in a cinema or anywhere else
I am a true movie lover.

Why don't you buy from Deep Discount? I haven't heard anything bad about them, but then I haven't heard that much about them.
shareIf you can get the Criterion DVD, get that.
However, I have the Legend Films DVD and - while the colorization is rather ropey (Mr. Harryhausen, I respect your monumental career, but enough with the colorizations already!) - it includes a restored black & white print that looks very good. Also, I got the Legend DVD for $10, the Criterion DVD will probably cost $25 or $30.
So I would go Criterion of I could, but the Legend isn't too bad. (Just avoid the colorized version!)
I've just watched the Criterion DVD of this, and the sound and visual images are all sharp and beautiful. Unlike other studios, RKO used the RCA Photophone System of sound recording. Colorization would only reduce the effect of the story on the audience. B/W is more creepy.
Criterion Collection in the US is now selling it for ~$19.
