Film or Films

Hi, which one is correct?

This is a box set collection includes of 8-films, but I don't want to mention the 8. So if I omit the 8, the film will be films or film?

Harry Potter Films Collection

Harry Potter Film Collection

"collection" implies plurality anyway, so "films" is not needed. More importantly, however, a noun ( film ) which pre-modifies another noun (collection) is almost always a singular noun. Harry Potter Film Collection CJ
