Product Description
Get set for hours of fun with the most loquacious lout ever to show up unannounced at America’s door! Beginning as a TV pitchman in 1980, drawling the praises of products like local amusement parks, car dealerships, “Sprite” and “Mello Yello” to an unseen (and clearly uncomfortable) next door neighbor named “Vern”, Ernest P. Worrell soon wormed his way into audiences’ hearts – making the leap to the big screen in 1987! Over the next decade or so, this hilarious hick would tackle everything from barracks life to basketball stardom to an African jewel hunt to an unexpected semester within the halls of academia, armed with nothing but a simpleton’s smile and a fast talkin’ catchphrase: “KnowhutImean?” The Best of Ernest provides an unbeatable overview of the iconic character’s twenty year progress from local commercial spots to major national ad campaigns – culminating with 5 of the finest entries from the beloved film series (Ernest in the Army, Ernest Rides Again, Ernest Goes to School, Slam Dunk Ernest and Ernest Goes to Africa). Along the way, you’ll encounter delightful characters like Rimshot (the Jack Russell Terrier who is undoubtedly smarter than his master), Ernest’s brothers in hickdom Chuck and Bobby (played by Gailard Sartain and Bill Bryge), Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (who helps Ernest master the finer points of slam dunking) and a wild and woolly assortment of Worrell family members (all played by star Jim Varney - showing off his thespian range and rubber-faced impressions), but don’t count on meeting ol’ Vern! KnowhutImean?

Avoid this set. Let it go out of print. Maybe then the titles will end up in better hands.
Of course, the better-known films are not included on this set. Nevertheless, what is included are the rest of Ernest's work. Assuming one has bought all the previously released materials, you're getting two new movies (Rides Again and Goes To School), and a rare one that was hard to find when it was released (Dr Otto).
The package shown is a shell that holds two heavy cardboard holders that hold five disks each. The holders are similar to a TV season holder.
Overall, this set is worth it. Whether you're completing your Ernest collection or starting one this set is worth it.
1). "Doctor Otto and The Riddle of the Gloom Beam": Has many VHS tracking glitches in it. The source material for this film was probobly not the best. Most of the tracking glitches seem to happen about an hour into the movie.
2). "Slam Dunk Ernest": From the start, this film becomes heavily pixellated when there is a lot of movement on screen.
I've contacted Image Madacy Entertainment and will update if I get a responce.
