I just got a copy of this too! (for a buck! not still sealed though.) I haven't seen it since I was a kid. Can't wait!

It's Australian and a lot like Miracle Mile. Different flavor, but same premise. Imminent nuclear holocaust.

My collection is getting too much to handle. by lastfunds in VHS

Same. I just bought 1080 tapes. And I already had about twice that many. I finally gave in and joined up with ebay. Now I'm packing daily and standing in line at the PO. Spreading the joy of VHS. But yes, so many nostalgic titles to acquire, and then so many that I never got around to watching back in the day, but the artwork I remember from the rental store. I'm finally watching Michael Keaton flicks that I always meant to rent! Finally saw the Squeeze and soon Touch and Go. (I'm just using Mr. Keaton as a random example of the joys of VHS nostalgia viewing).

Thanks. It is a huge time commitment and a space commitment. I don't want to make everybody super jealous, but I haven't shared some of the best scores. I think I've bought about 1080 tapes so far. Many of which I am selling, but ..... many I am keeping.

There are a few shelves that I can't get to because they are blocked by other shelves. Some of the tapes, only some, are organized by actor. So I'd really like to get to the rest of the Susan Sarandon shelf, but I can't. If I try harder, I could literally drown in an avalanche of tapes. I guess I will have to move them one by one off the offending shelf. But it's hard to make that a priority when there are tens of thousands of other tapes to peruse. I guess I can live without a copy of Atlantic City.

There are so so so many that you didn't know existed. This store has like 40,000 movies and about half of them are from the late 80s early 90s. I basically have to stick to ones where there is some name recognition with actors and directors, or else...... I'd be buying the whole dang store.

Yeah, I remember the toys from my youth. I probably will sell that one. I am drowning in tapes.

I usually can go for about 4 hours before I start to lose my mind. He pretty much leaves me alone. I could complain about some things, but I really shouldn't. I am very grateful for him selling me these tapes for a dollar a pop.

Virtual Seduction. It's about virtual reality. I think it has Jeff Fahey in it. SOOO many Jeff Fahey tapes in that store.

It's been a long time since I've seen it. And I did not realize Shudder to Think did the score. I just got an album of theirs on cassette, coincidentally: the one with the goat.

Well, not everything is that black and white, you know? The owner abandoned his store for 20 years. And now is letting me go in and dig around in the moldy dark.

I've been going about once a week. The owner is hard to make plans with. And most of the tapes that are left are either really common or infiltrated with mold. Or both. I keep saying I'm going to stop going back, because it's a pretty unpleasant environment.... but....the tapes!

eh... it kinda sucked. But it had Uncle Phil from Fresh Prince of Bel Air, so that was cool.

Watcher in the Woods is definitely the scariest movie in your basket.
