Cool. I bought this. Not from the era but these films were extremely impactful and influential for that generation. I love watching these for that reason. Too bad the blob didn't make it. Or the Invasion of the body snatchers.

I already owned Frankenstein, Dracula and Bride of Frankenstein but still decided to purchase this. For the remaining 5 films it was basically $5 per title and individually they are going for $15, so still a pretty solid deal. Double dipping stings a little but I guess the money I already spent was basically a visit to Chipotle so relatively speaking not too bad.

Does anyone know how the Universal Rewards works? If I buy this through Apple, how do I get credit for the movies from Universal?

Wow - you can still make crazy money on movies that are nearly 100 years old! But of course Mickey Mouse copyright still makes total sense.

I would make sure Universal Rewards, MA and Apple iTunes are all connected before buying.

unfortunately, those two aren't Universal Monsters. And the Blob is pretty boring. You're not missing much. Outside of the theater, scene, of course.

Deal worked for me, the universal points did get awarded and I can confirm that they are 4k although the when you are buying them they display as HD. Thank OP!

I currently have an active Apple TV+ account, but I do not own any Apple devices, other than my U2 iPod from 2004.

When I click on the link above, it launches the Apple TV+ site and takes me to one of the movies in the bundle, but there is no option to purchase or add to the cart, just a "Cancel" button.

EDIT: I am using my Android phone.

The only help I can provide is on many Apple digital movie/TV show deals posted here is the following:

"Note: Must purchase on iOS device using Apple TV app or on PC using iTunes for Windows software."

I don't have Android and I've never tested to see if I can buy movies using the Apple TV app on any of my TV's or Roku or Fire Cube or Google streaming devices. The only exception I take to that "note" above is you can also buy using the TV app on Mac or on the Apple TV streaming box, neither of which are technically iOS devices. I would change the wording to say "Apple Device". It can get confusing for folks because there's at least 3 different things all using "Apple TV". The hardware streaming box, the software App and the streaming service (tho technically it's called Apple TV+).
