It's the WRONG Picture for This Item!!! Watch Out!!! March 20, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Read the title in the picture of this DVD and read the Amazon title... What's wrong with this picture?!? The picture they are showing you is WRONG - it's a picture of one the 3 less-than fine TV movies made AFTER the series was cancelled - the movie where David Banner/The Hulk meets Thor, and it's just not as good a story as ANY of the shows. I mean, c'mon... the series made an intelligent and successful effort to legitimize the idea of the comic character, The Hulk, and later someone comes up with him meeting a Norse God?!? So much for the legitimizing. Anyway, the "movie" that is advertised here on Amazon ISN'T THE ONE YOU GET! In Amazon's credits and description, they are advertising the SECOND TV movie that came AFTER the original pilot movie of the series, that was later broken down into a two-part episode called "Death in the Family", which was considerably better than the movie with THOR. "Death in the Family" is NOT for sale all by itself, as this ad suggests, but is ONLY available in the "Best Of..." Hulk series DVD set and in the boxed set of the first season release of the Hulk on DVD. So, BE WARNED! Amazon should really fix this blunder, so they won't get so many complaints and returns when fans buy this DVD. A word to the Hulk-wise fans.
This is the 1988 movie, not the 1977 movie. July 6, 2006 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I ordered this and there seems to be some alternate titling going on here. The film I was sent is the 1988 film with Thor, titled "The Return of the Incredible Hulk," although IMDB lists it as "The Incredible Hulk Returns." This item's description says it's the 1977 version, also listed on IMDB as "The Return of the Incredible Hulk" or "Death in the Family." Just a word of warning to avoid confusion. The DVD arrived in good condition, so no complaints there, but the seller needs to update the description to show the proper year of release.
Confusion February 19, 2005 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Unless I'm very much mistaken, this is the two-part episode that became "Death in the Family" in the show's first season; one clue is that Alan J. Levi is in the credits, and another is that the year given is 1977.
If you remember scenes like those of David being attacked by a bear and stepping into quicksand, and of the Hulk spewing whiskey into a campfire and throwing a stump or post at a helicopter, they come from "Death in the Family," which probably aired first as a CBS made-for-TV movie called "The Return of the Incredible Hulk" after what became the pilot aired previously. If this hadn't aired under this name, then "The Incredible Hulk Returns" from '89 or so would probably have aired as "The Return of the Incredible Hulk."
I give it five stars because I think rewriting the comic's storyline to address the human condition was a great idea. I'd like to have seen more of the same kind of drama in the later movies of the week, but I suppose Kenneth Johnson had obligations at the time.
Bad product period. December 18, 2002 This was the TV movie with Thor, not the second TV movie of the original series. But both movies were awful. You would have to be insane to like any of this campy trash.
Awful return of a great show October 16, 2002 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
I'll be brief. I LOVED the Hulk in all his iterations. The comic, and the original run of the series, heck I even give the cartoon on Saturday morning credit.HOWEVER, this movie [wasnt good]. Using the Hulk to push this spin-off vehicle for Marvel's Thor was a terrible idea and totally ran against the grain of what was a decent sci-fi drama TV series, even with the token appearance of Jack McGee. The subsequent Daredevil idea in the "Trial of The Incredible Hulk" was equally weak. Only in the third movie, "Death of the Incredible Hulk" did they come even close to the flavor of the original series. I would say only the most hardcore fan with blinders on could really appreciate this movie.
