As great as the Universal Monsters: Essential Collection Blu-ray set is, it only contains all eight core Universal Monsters movies, and *not* the various sequels and spinoffs that were included with the individual “Legacy Collection” DVDs. As of 2016, however, the Dracula, Wolf Man, Frankenstein and Mummy Legacy Collections have hit Blu-ray.

And on August 28, we’ve just learned, the Creature from the Black Lagoon and The Invisible Man complete legacy collections will finally be arriving on Blu-ray as well!

The Creature set includes Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954), Revenge of the Creature (1955) and The Creature Walks Among Us (1956). Of particular note, Revenge of the Creature has been given a new 3D restoration.

The Invisible Man set includes The Invisible Man (1933), The Invisible Man Returns (1940), The Invisible Woman (1940), Invisible Agent (1942), The Invisible Man’s Revenge (1944) and Abbot and Costello Meet the Invisible Man (1951).

Thanks to Just the Discs Pod for the heads up on this one.
