Planet Of The Apes (1968) (Dolby Digital 5.1)
Charlton Heston and Roddy McDowall star in this legendary science fiction masterpiece. Astronaut Taylor (Heston) crash lands on a distant planet ruled by apes who use a primitive race of humans for experimentation and sport. Soon Taylor finds himself among the hunted, his life in the hands of a benevolent chimpanzee scientist (McDowall). Winner of an Honorary Academy Award for Outstanding Make-up Achievement, Planet Of The Apes is grand entertainment from its visually arresting beginning to the chilling last moment.
Beneath The Planet Of The Apes (1969)
In the acclaimed sequel to Planet Of The Apes, another astronaut (James Franciscus) crashes through the time barrier searching for Taylor (Charlton Heston). The daring rescue mission leads to a subterranean city where mutant humans, who practice mind control, worship a weapon capable of destroying the entire planet. Both an action-oriented sci-fi adventure and a wry commentary on today's world, this second Apes installment is imaginative entertainment for fantasy buffs of all ages.
Escape From The Planet Of The Apes (1971)
Roddy McDowall and Kim Hunter reprise their roles form the original Planet Of The Apes in this third chapter of the Apes saga. Two intelligent simians from the future, Cornelius and Zira, travel to present-day Earth. They become instant sensations, wined and dined and treated like celebrities -- until a high-level plot forces them to run for their lives! Featuring Ricardo Montalban and Sal Mineo, it's a delightful blend of humor, social commentary and suspense.
Conquest Of The Planet Of The Apes (1972)
Colorful, futuristic sets, a relentless pace and an action-packed climax highlight the fourth episode of the legendary Apes saga. The time is the near future. Apes have replaced dogs and cats as household pets, and servants as personal assistants -- until their continual mistreatment provokes one advanced ape from the future, Caesar, to lead a spectacular revolt. Starring Roddy McDowall and Ricardo Montalban, it's thrilling science fiction that delivers both a serious message and stirring entertainment.
Battle For The Planet Of The Apes (1973)
Roddy McDowall and Claude Akins star in the final chapter of the legendary Apes saga. Set in 2001 A.D., an idyllic society of man and ape is threatened by both a militant gorilla (Akins) and a tribe of still-intelligent mutant humans. Finally, simmering tensions dividing the primates erupt in an apocalyptic climax. When the smoke clears, the carnage is everywhere, but there is hope for a new beginning for man and ape.

I have truly enjoyed the movie planet of the apes. We had purchased the vhs version some years back and its the best collection in the field ever. Now we purchased the dvd box set from play.com and my family will treasure it for all years to come. Thanks to play.com that we could obtain it at a reasonable price.

All five of the original movies in one lovely box set, with a feature length documentary narrated by Roddy Mcdowall, telling the making of all five films. The five films eventually form a story arc which is very clever in retrospect. Kudos to screenwriter Paul Dehn, who pulled a very smart rabbit out of the hat after the ending of the second film. This saga really was one they couldn't - and perhaps shouldn't - have remade, but they tried! Not one measly sequel for Mister Burton's effort, alas!
A Classic collection.... at a crazy price!

I Remember paying over £100 for this collection when it first appeared on dvd. The Quality has improved over my ntsc version with the anamorphic transfer and at the price play.com are selling... You could have a boxset in every room of the house. It's a steal of a price for a collection of movies that really made and led the way for scfi and make up movies. It should be in everyones collection. The 1968 original holds a quality of design, that will never look outdated. An excellent script with an ending, that at the time.. created a shock that had never really been witnessed in movies before it. Kim Hunter and Roddy Macdowell's performance as the two main ape characters Zira and Cornelius are amazing.. Never before had a mask or make up been believable enough for you to warm to the characters. It's a classic... It's Iconic... A Genius of cinema of that time.
