90s

Fridays in the 90s meant racing the clock to rent the last VHS tape at Blockbuster, praying nobody forgot to rewind it. We dialed up the internet, endured the screeching tones, and survived on pure, un-algorithmed vibes. Today, we just scroll through endless streaming menus until we fall asleep at … read more

Question Of The Day

You are handed a VHS tape that allows you to trap your worst enemy in a 'Groundhog Day' time loop. However, you can only trap them inside a single, 5-minute scene from any movie in history. What specific scene are you choosing as their eternal psychological torture to ensure their mind completely… read more

90s Saturday

Static TVs and neon glow, Dial-up hums as the arcade lights fade, VHS tapes spinning a childhood show— A warmth that digital screens re-made. Now Saturdays fade into quiet, solitary phone-scrolling art,

What is your favorite movie from the VHS era?

Few Favorites

This mid 70s Godzilla design is the one I grew up with. On Megalon and Mechagodzilla vhs. Those tapes were always turning. Over the years I acquired this cover art of Megalon. Godzilla and Megalon fighting atop the world trade centers.

I'm Khadijah who grew up in Manila, Philippines

In the end, the lives I live between pages are as real as any I have ever known. They are filled with sun, rain, spice, and salt; with laughter and sorrow, wisdom and folly. They are alive in me, and through me, they may touch the lives of others. Writing is the art of living beyond limits, the act… read more

Life lately

Moved out here from Toronto in the spring and haven’t met too many people yet, my life these days is basically collecting and reading Manga. Recently been purchasing a bunch of anime VHS as of lately! Anyone know the best places to find these things in Kawartha Lakes area? Also, anyone planning… read more

Recorded episodes of TRL!

Holy smokes, found some VHS with recorded episodes of TRL!

Found footage recs

Found footage is one of my favourite horror movie sub-genres. Anyone got any recommendations for some good ones? Bonus points if they’re combined with creature features or slasher, as I love those sub-genres too. A few I loved: Rec 1 & 2, VHS franchise, The Bay, Behind the Mask, Late Night With… read more

Hazbin Hotel Pilot Episode On VHS

I got my hands on this one copy 😭💕

My personal favorite Godzilla

As far back as I can remember this was the first Godzilla I remember. Thanks to my first VHS “Godzilla vs Megalon”. My goal will be to build a miniature city for my monsters to be staged in 💪 🤓

First time working with 8mm/super8 reels

Does anyone have any 8mm/super8 reels? I'm a digitizer that digitizes peoples memories. most of my work usually involves VHS tapes and hi8 tapes. I had a client give me film reels as her parents have their own memories there. I have to admit, it'll be my first time working with them, but I looked… read more

Latest haul, May 8-16, 2026.

These came in from the same batch my friend got for me while he was still in Italy and now he's in Vietnam. Good collection! Never stop collecting physical media is my motto. The ABBA More Gold collection is a demonstration of how I've progressed to having these - 1993 US VHS tape, 1994 EU VCD,… (edited) read more

'Cursed'

Originally titled 'Hey I didn't know you had 3DTV' but that sort of diminishes the feeling behind it with a silly joke. Always been a big fan of Ringu and The Ring, and I'm very proud of how this one turned out. The VHS static on the TV was a lot of fun to do digitally, just cutting and pasting and… read more

Bucky o' hare

Does anyone actually remember this? I grew up with it until my brother destroyed a VHS tape. I don't think they ever made it to the end, would have been interesting to see the toad empire's true leader would it have been like oz a wimpy frog or other race or basically Hitler version of a toad, I… read more

The Games That Made Me (Part 9)

You didn’t think my gaming journey would stop just because my PlayStation 2 was murdered, did you? Well, I’ll tell you what followed that dark day — and some of it might actually be true. After a period of moping around the house, I’m sure my parents took pity on me and bought me an Xbox — not a… (edited) read more

Remember?

Does anyone else remember a movie called The Boy Who Loved Trolls? Sam Waterson played a bridge troll named Ofoet. Also had Tom Sevini and William H Macy. I watched this till the VHS tape broke.

Tears in silk handkerchiefs

Marks that reveal a conviction, a blink, dreams come true and in that moment I am a prisoner of my echoes. Isolated laughter reverberates on VHS, the scene ends, the tape gets stuck, trapped I break down. Alone I ignite in the night, protecting myself from my solitary agony.

Collection counts: Queen CD, DVD, VCD, vinyl, cassette, VHS and more. (2007-now)

First batch of the collection I've been collecting for years.

Barbie and the Rockers

I was obsessed with the VHS as a kid, this is me in the 80s dressed up as a 80s rocker Barbie 💅😂 1986? Or 1987 I think, my grandmother sewed mine and my sisters Halloween outfits ✨

Name a movie...

That instantly bring you back to your childhood. Mine was Mulan. I just kill that vhs on repeat. But also kudos to the parent tramp that was always on TV and was a blast to watch (edited)

VHS tapes

I'm hosting a platonic cuddle and movie night as a community gathering every other week :D We all pick a movie and vote on which ones to watch each week I love the nostalgia factor of these things 😍 (Do you see your favorite movie from childhood in here, and if so, what is it?)

Cinderella

I'll take any reason to dress up and go out but tonight I'm going to see Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella. I had the VHS of Leslie Ann Warren as Cinderella growing up and I watched it so many times I destroyed the tape.😬🥲🤭 Did you have a favorite movie growing up? I also frequently watched… read more
