Wow, I haven't done that in years. I was extremely bored this evening, so in order to kill some time I biked over to the local Blockbuster and leafed through their VHS bin. I found this flick Grim, and I hope it won't disappoint. Anyone else seen it?

Does it have an ugly ass fairy tale monster on the cover?
Because if it does, you just wasted good money my friend!

You use some mechanical device, the ancients used to call it a V-C-R.

OH MY FUCKING JIM CAVIEZEL! That movie was horrible, it made the troll from Ernest Scared Stupid seem scary in comparision. Lesson learned - consult with the chewers before picking up my next movie.

And to think, all that pain could have been avoided.

Since when is Shatner getting sacrificed by satan worshippers in Devils Rain and Ernest Borgnine and John Travolta turning into masses of goo at the end result in a bad time?

You people are dead to me.


Typical 70's explotation flick. Man, they were obsessed with the Devil back then.

Ernest Borgnine looks like my dad.
I'd call him "Cabbie" and he'd just look at me weird.

Call me old school, but I dig VHS. I came of age with it, so I enjoy it like I enjoy vinyl records.
Certain flicks seem to belong to VHS. Fulci, for example. His movies are far too low budget for the slick DVD format. Popping in a big old black tape of "Gates of Hell" is much more satisfying.
Same goes for the great schlock of the 50's and 60's.

Porn should ALWAYS be on VHS...preferably a 7th generation copy, the picture quality being so bad that, at times, you can't work out 'quite' what you're seeing...given to you in a paperbag at school by some jock who's paying you back for doing 'his' homework...oh, and the tape should suddenly have a random episode of the 'Fresh Prince of Bel Air' in the middle, cause the jock's sister 'just grabbed any tape at random'...

.That's the ONLY reason VHS should still exist...Right?

If I were stranded on a desert island, I'd rather have VHS than DVD. I can use the tape to floss my teeth or bind my makeshift raft together and escape, hopefully to be picked up by a yacht with a DVD player.

Yes, but you could use rocks to sharpen the edges of DVD's, thus creating supershiny shuriken (just like in I COME IN PEACE, woo!) that could be used not only to bag animals for food but could also easily catch sunlight to flag down overflying planes.

You know, there's something to this. War of the Worlds is one of my favorite movies, and I would always show the tape to my friends to demonstrate how good the effects were, especially for that time. Then I bought the DVD and watched it in crystal digital clarity, and I could see every godforsaken wire.

You've just explained why all porn should be on VHS

There are some things the human mind shouldn't see digitally.
(Let alone freeze-frame and zoom in on.)

All the good bits in porn films on VHS (unless you bought them yourself) are almost unwatchable, as the previous viewers have been pausing them, backing them up, pausing them, backing them up, pausing them, backing them up, pausing them, backing them up...etc, so any ferrous oxide has been shaved off...

Let them eat STATIC!
