Region 2. You fail.

VHS didn't have 'regions', it was PAL or NTSC.

F, no gold stars, see me after class.

Better not post those Laserdisc prices then.


£18.49 might've got you 1 side of the disc.

All mine (with exception of my Indy, Star Wars and Natural Born Killers box sets) are in my parents attics and had a big when sorting through them and remembering the prices paid

loads at £30 and £40 +

Mind love my Die Hard 3 with gatefold sleeve and may actually look at framing some more of them

I own a copy of Happy Gilmore/Big Daddy on VHS. To watch the latter you have to wind the tape to the guesstimated point

 

[mjn]

For the cost of postage, somebody can have the VHS if they want it

 

[mattclarkie]

What is this 'VHS' and 'Tape' you talk of?
How do you wind a movie?

 

[IronGiant]

It's a bit like Betamax, but not as good...

 

[mjn]

I've found a copy of Jackie Chan's Crime Story as well, no idea if its widescreen though ROFL

 

[mattclarkie]

Soon we will look back at those double sided DVDs where one side of 4:3 and the other is 16:9 and laugh. Wait, that time is already here.

I still have my VCR under the TV, It's sole use is a clock!

 

[NoMansLand]

The first VHS I ever rented was Ghostbusters.

Good times.

I remember my uncle buying 'Enter the dragon' and 'American werewolf in London' on vhs when they first came out.And iirc they were both £60+

Our first VHS rental was Clash Of The Titans, it was a great moment in my life.

I still have over 300 VHS films in the roof, including some rather naughty ones which my children will no doubt unearth as they go through our stuff after we have died!

Bought or 'home made'?

I remember in the early 80's when I used to go round my cousins house (cos he was the only person I knew who had a video recorder) and watching video nasties! The Exorcist, I spit on your Grave, Driller Killer, Last house on the Left etc.
I also remember he had a couple of Electric Blue videos!
Anyone remember them?

Sure do fella, think one in particular I remember was a big norked blond soaping herself in the shower , then her friend pops in a gives her a hand with the wash which she seemed to appreciate . Which was nice. -

pretty soft core stuff now looking back but did the job at the time
