After several half-assed attempts, I have now officially launched a blog. This is for all of the people in my life who can’t get enough of my witty and insightful commentary during the day.
This all started back in the late summer of 2005. I had developed a habit of perusing the free section of Craigslist at least six times a day. It’s completely ingrained in my system now (and I swear, one day I will find a use for that Apple // e). One day, I came across an ad that read “500 Free VHS Movies.” I had hit the jackpot!
I quickly drove out to a storage unit facility in Richmond. Guess what? That’s a terrific place to murder some unsuspecting stranger! Fortunately, I met a sweet couple from Colorado who no longer wanted their VHS tapes. I barely managed to load the 28 boxes of tapes into my 1991 Toyota Corolla. I got the boxes over to my house and had to carry each one up three flights of stairs. Was it worth? Well, now i I have two copies of Thunder in Paradise 2, so you tell me.
I now have around 1,120 films in my collection, 800 of which are VHS tapes ranging from underated and forgotten to the utterly craptastic. My goal: to watch every single one of them. Expect to see reviews, where are they now profiles, and misc posts on whatever I damn well feel like.
