Amazon.ca has a recently updated their movies and TV shows deal section, and within this section I was able to find a rather hot deal on a masterpiece collection that will, for some of you, be a really big throwback. The deal that I speak of is the 44% markdown on, Alfred Hitchcock: The Masterpiece Collection. The box set includes 15 different movies from the critically acclaimed director and screenwriter, and will also showcase some of old Hollywood’s most talented actors and actresses that sparkled across the big screen during the Golden Age of cinema.

Of the many classics that are included in this 15-movie set, one of my personal favourites, which stars James Stewart and Grace Kelly, has been included in the collection. The film being, Rear Window, which on Rotten Tomatoes (like many of Hitchcock’s films) has received a 100% rating on the Tomatometer scale. The other films that you can anticipate to find in the collection are:

• Psycho
• North by Northwest
• Saboteur
• Shadow of a Doubt
• Rope
• Trouble With Harry
• The Man Who Knew Too Much
• Vertigo
• The Birds
• Marnie
• Tom Curtain
• Topaz
• Frenzy
• and the Family Plot

For the more modern TV viewer, you may be interested in checking out the sale that Amazon.ca has on Battlestar Galactica: The Complete Series. As of the time of this posting, there were only 10 left of these box sets, which isn’t surprising seeing as the collection normally sells for $229.99, but is now on sale for just $160.79.

If Battlestar Galactica is too sci-fi dense for you, then your preferences may lean towards a more popular culture friendly sci-fi TV series, that is Smallville. Right now, you can pick up the 7th season, and almost every other season of Smallville for that matter, for just $14.49 (regularly $49.70).

Amazon.ca offers free-shipping on all orders that are $25 or more.
