(Wrong topic, I know, but "Flemish cinema on DVD" doesn't exist and I didn't want to make one for this purpose)

Stumbled upon a chance to get this boxset at a good price - can anyone advise if these films are worth the while: Flemish Films Classic Collection 40DVD

DVD edition from Thierry Zéno including Bouche sans fond ouverte sur les horizons (1971), Vase de noces (1974) (very disturbing film!) and Of the Dead (1979).
