Billy Jack movies on DVD - four movie set - cheap retro entertainment

http://www.google.com/froogle?q=billy+jack+collection&btnG=Search+Froogle

http://www.billyjack.com/

I bought these movies and am watching them as we have time. It is fun and one of the interesting features is the commentary by Tom Laughlin and his wife Delores Taylor. The commentaries are an alternate sound track that run the length of the movies and they discuss their experiences while filming the movies. So you can watch them twice, once with the dialog and once with the commentary.

I paid $22 and change for the four movie set, delivered. I consider it a steal at this price. I saw the movie Billy Jack years ago and remembered that there were other Billy Jack movies but I never saw them anywhere; here they are.

If you just feel like some moronic activity feel free to go ahead and bash them all that you like. They are old low-budget movies and that is obvious when you watch them. If you can appreciate outspoken alternative views from the past that showed a surprising wealth of insight and foresight (dumb stuff too) these may interest you. The visuals are interesting to me because the movies are shot in real surroundings with real people and are a visual time capsule.

I haven't seen them all, just the first one and I thought it was pretty good. Good story, action, etc. I'll keep an eye out for the set.
