<p>Fuck talking about Aliens takes me back, my younger brother and I must have watched the VHS of that after school and weekends every day for about 2 years. It was when it came out in '86.<br>
The movie scared the shit out of me when I first saw it but then realised it was the fucken coolest thing ever made ( Star Wars was long gone so I was desperate for sumthing to fill the void)<br>
I pity kids today ( and the last few years) all they get to watch is just shit. Twilight ffs</p>

<p>When I was a kid, the local video store had a school holiday "Two videos for $5 as long as you return them by 5pm" deal. So many Chuck Norris movies were watched.</p> -

<p>Our neighbour bought the first vhs in the street and I got invited over to watch the first film with them, it was Deer Hunter. I was eight.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>My spellcheck doesn't recognise vhs, fark that makes me feel old.</p> -
First VHS movie we saw was Raiders of the Lost Ark<br>
Is early 1970s to say mid 80's just the coolest period in movie history? -

<p>Hell yes, anyone remember this?</p>

<p>Exorcist was a freak out I remember. A major freakout</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Remember those "Killing Asia" vids? First time we saw real death on a screen. Now the kids have been desensitized to all that stuff (I think)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>edit: or was it "Shocking Asia"?</p> -
<p>When I was 6 a friend of mine came round with a video his mum had let him rent, Commando. It was the R rated version where the dude gets his arm cut off. I think I was too young to be freaked out. Watched "this really funny film about Aliens" at the same friend's place a couple of years later. That was Aliens, which freaked me out far more.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The ads for Arachnophobia also scared the shit out of me. I guess that was because a farking evil little spider could get you anywhere at any time.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Just seeing pictures of Freddy Kruger used to give me nightmares.</p> -

<p>Sunday Mutha fucken Night Horrors, how cool were they. Every week would get the Listener ( is that still around?) and would immediately go to Sunday and check to see what was on that night.</p>

<p>You couldnt go past 2 things in the 80's as a kid, Star Wars and anything Speilberg had a hand in. Goonies, Gremlins, Back to the Future, Indiana Jones, E.T, Poltergeist and probably a fuck ton more im missing.</p>
