An OK look into the old world of the VHS days. But, it's kind of funny that they complain about the new technologies of today and of future but you can only see this via VOD or Blu-ray. No DVD or hell even a copy of this on the VHS format to purchase. Maybe it's on those formats on the Troma site? An OK Documentary for those who are interested in this subject or those of us who worked at video stores back in the day. The guys in this documentary hold a contest to see who can find the weirdest movies on VHS and other are on here talking about the old format. Just know that there subjects in this bounce around a lot. It's all fun though. Kudos to Troma. Don't spend a lot of money seeing this though.

Grossly misleading title. Really lame. Nothing to do with the demise of VHS.
Misleading title. This is awful amateur youtube quality crap. Its terrible. The title is grossly misleading. It's about three failed middle aged filmmakers who basically just goof off in front of the camera. It really has nothing to do with the decline of the VHS market. They go to closing video stores and just basically goof around. Has nothing to do with any sort of history or anything interesting. Only good as a youtube video. They do some interviews but keep cutting off the interviewees and keep laughing in the background. Really disappointing. And the three filimmakers are major douchebags.Even the interview with Lloyd Kaufman is pretty bad. They don't even stop to show the interviews. It's just them waiting in the lobby waiting to do an interview and saying how nervous they are and that they need to set up the mic/camera before the interview, etc. This stuff shouldn't even be on camera. No wonder these filmmakers are failures. It's definitely not about the subject matter. They really wanted to just make it about them. And they are all so annoying. It's such a hodgepodge of interviews with no real focus. Really don't know what this is supposed to be about. Like I said, it's more of an amateur youtube video. They interview themselves at a local Goodwill laughing at the VHS titles they have available, etc. Really boring stuff.It's all about these three failed morons and its just a complete vanity project trying to promote themselves and their crappy movies. Don't waste your money.
