Weird Things On VHS - Phelous

[@humanconvertile]

Phelous finding actual analog horror by accident might be the most scary analog horror thing on the site.

[@mrlaz9011]

the Phelen files

[@matthewdunk]

Where is the analogue horror?

[@UnclePhil73]

I’m convinced that Phelous’ ultimate goal is to own everything with Ghostbusters and TMNT on it.

[@EmilyGloeggler7984]

What’s wrong with owning Ghostbusters stuff?

[@dreamlandnightmare]

At least every video release of those movies.

[@UnclePhil73]

@@EmilyGloeggler7984 didn’t say there was. It’s just fascinating the new obscure versions he can find.

[@jonbourgoin182]

That nWo Ghostbusters shirt is an oddity I certainly wasn't expecting. Makes me wonder if he had it custom made because wtf

[@masterfarr8265]

and everything related to dingo pictures

[@ZekeAxel]

Russian who grew up in the VHS pirate boom. - I remember those EA VHSs, they usually had a ton of ads, including a mix of PG-13 ones and then something spicy like Basic Instinct. Like, it was a wild time. - "Translator trying to say all the credits" it's not ALL the credits, but usually just writers-composers-directors. In voice over translations of movies, they'd do the same, but as the credits go on screen at the start of movie, they'd read out all the actors, go silent, then read out the composer, writers and directors. Nobody cares about Casting or whatever. - The long logo at the end is when he says the Russian dub actors, so maybe it's there to provide the space for MORE actors, but he usually fits it in quickly. - On why there's Discovery Channel and MTV at the end - EASY. The VHS was probably a MTV recording, but was then rewritten to a Discovery one, then into Mortal Kombat... Gotta be frugal when you're a 90s Russian videopirate. - The DVD menu on the end of the VHS has ArthuT (a typo) and the Liliputans (Arthur and the Invisibles), the New Adventures of Cinderella, Sharkbait and RenaiSance (also with just one S). PS: Random note, TMNT are just called "Ninja Turtles" (Черепашки Ниндзя) in Russia, officially and colloquially, from the 80s cartoon to the Michael Bay movies. But the newer VHS-DVD rip you showed actually had them as Turtle Mutant Ninjas, which is not something I've ever heard them called in Russia. But I also haven't watched the official release of the 2000s TMNT cartoon in Russia, so maybe that was the plan at the time?

[@rikustorm13]

Group W logo with static hum noise is kinda analog horror ngl :o

[@TheMellowFilmmaker]

Phelous is practically the only KZbinr that would go through different language versions of a film to find minute differences and stumble upon an Atari creepy pasta. Old Phelous probably would've ended the video with the robot killing him.

[@Zaneyboy2_0]

One of these days, Phelous is going to become the unintentional star of a real-life analog horror series.

[@UJEvans]

Australian "I hate Splinter" made my day lol

[@LadyDiskette]

The whole Australian dub itself it is a laugh riot 😂

[@ФилософскаяжизньГлебаДождева]

The actor, who tries to translate all the names during the end titles on a Russian tape is Vadim Andreev, Russian voice of Megawolt from DW, Donkey from Shrek and many other characters

[@brianhebert6152]

12:09 And you can hear his name being read aloud by him in the dubbing credits!

[@SsnakeBite]

The Atari demos randomly at the end of the Ghostbusters tape sure are a trip. I love those things but man, that is weird.

[@bloodrunsclear]

Watching TMNT dubbed into Russian is a bit like listening to a disinterested sportscaster hurriedly reading a teleprompter during a World Series game.

[@slenders1ckn3ss]

START TELLING.

[@brianhebert6152]

​@@slenders1ckn3ss I'd be all like "I'D BUY THAT FOR A DOLLAR" if somebody did an overdub of the World Series in the style of the "disinterested Dutchman and his son" Dingo dubs.

[@stellarobado4269]

I've seen the spaceship and robot Atari 8-bit demos before and it amuses me so much that they showed up on some random VHS tape. It's called the "CES demo". One KZbin upload I've found says credits the programmers: "This is the second half of the "Robot / Spaceship" 1982 CES demo, by Jim St. Louis and Russ Karas." watch?v=kLdmviclAx4 The CES demo ROM file has been dumped and preserved online. BTW, I don't blame you for not being able to find much about the robot and spaceship demos-- in the past year search results on KZbin have been absolute trash. I know I'm not the only person having this problem.

[@BigEOT3]

“I hate Splint….” “Cuts to commercial”

[@AmishParadise27]

I can just imagine Mark Elliott's narration before the film: "Be sure to join us right after the feature, for some absolutely random bullcrap not related to anything at all".

[@brianhebert6152]

"And now, An Atari Tech Demo"

[@riverscuomo7140]

You know, some of these legitimately do feel like bits in creepypastas, just if they were really mundane. Like the Tom and Jerry Kids intro thing. EDIT: Oh, wow, I didn't even get to the Atari thing. That feels like a vignette straight out of the original NES Godzilla Creepypasta with the password screens.

[@SiRenfield]

Kind of got that vibe with the Russian tape switching to random channels and then distorting? Like was the друг gonna come out of the screen? 😂

[@Takimeko]

They look like the weird TV icon images from the NES Godzilla creepypasta.

[@davidker8820]

If I wasn’t Australian, and remembered those Roadshow ads better than my coworkers’ names, I would be convinced that all of these were fake. Truly, the world of VHS is a crazy, crazy place.

[@LinksBetweenDrinks]

I can just imagine Phelan explaining all of this weird TMNT dumpster diving to Alyson. "No, honey, it's for the show! Really! ...Crap, now I have to make a video."

[@stephenschlueter8242]

Australian Leonardo: That's not a katana. Now, this is a katana! ...of course. I do love these little deep dives onto weird regional releases. And thanks, UK VHS for reminding me of the cursed era whe Coca-Cola owned Columbia Pictures and did all their product placement with a sledgehammer.

[@jinkschuvisko8772]

The distortions, rewinds and overall randomness on some of these tapes made me think Phelous would stumble upon an irl arg

[@desmondmalone438]

24:38 even the tape hates that gag

[@faenethlorhalien]

Hi, Phelous. The TMNT/TMHT tape you chewed the intro off from Spain wasn’t an edition in Spanish, actually. The language is Catalan, one of the languages in Spain, co-official in Catalonia, Valencia and the Balearic Islands. The Turtles were first aired in Catalonia in the late 80s and made their roll in regional TV stations, most of them airing in their regional languages, not in Spanish. I know it because I’m from there and if the right age for having watched the original turtles series on regional Catalan tv stations TV3 and Canal 33.

[@brianhebert6152]

I'm guessing Pizza World, the tape's co-sponsor, was a regional chain in Catalonia (I'm guessing from the lack of info I've been able to find about it on the internet). Oh, and two fun facts about Chupa Chups - Salvador Dali designed the brand's logo, and they sponsored the early-90s mascot platformer Zool.

[@pugilist31]

My pride and joy is the japanese VHS of the film "Transylvania 6-500" (known in japan as "vampire reporter" for some reason) which came secondhand from a clear-out of a japanese video store. The japanese ads before and after and movie trailers are a trip.

[@morningblue84]

Tom and Jerry Kids is like the last series I'd ever expect to see on this channel, but here we are.

[@Baronofworms]

Some of these tapes almost seem like they’re actively trying to be some kind of abstract horror or comedy project.

[@thehonoredone2361]

Finding VHS tapes growing up was such a blast you never know what kind of treasure you would discover in a shop/store.

[@WillDaBeard]

You realize “weird things on VHS” is already your reputation, right Phelous?

[@altebander2767]

Actually that "Russian Music Video" is actually German. The single was released at the end of November 1998. On the bottom there is a text announcing a frequency change of the channel "VIVA" this was recorded of.

[@MrDarksol]

.....Ok, the weird robot at the end of the Ghostbusters video tape is a highlight lol. I mean everything else was bizarre, out there and very much strange but THAT was something I never knew would pop up in a VHS video. But yeah, VHS tapes were indeed an old relic of an age gone by and it is great that you document a lot of these or in layman's terms:Phelous reminds us that he is a Turtles, Mortal Kombat and Ghostbusters fan volume whatever number we are at right now lol. Still, great job!

[@arubinojr5670]

4:55 Same tone as those fake DS piracy screens that connect you to the FBI, but for real. That last video however was truly a journey.

[@brentparker7359]

This reminds me of a video I had when I was a child called "The Bear Who Slept Through Christmas." It was a standard animated holiday special from the 1970s, but after that ended, the tape presented other holiday-themed adventures of Ted E. Bear and friends. The thing is, these weren't animated, but instead were narrated over still images like a picture book. There was also a live-action "news report" segment, with the characters presented as costumed performers (or possibly puppets?)

[@debbieganger]

It was common for early f.h.e. tapes of stuff that ran under an hour to have filler material.

[@TheLastPhoen1x]

"Sit back with a coke and enjoy Ghostbusters." I don't do coke when I watch movies, bud.

[@thefunnychiptuneman]

i do but thats funny though

[@Channeleven2345789]

3:55 Splinter sums up the reason TMNT exists, commercialism.

[@OzzieAstaroth]

Weird, but interesting! It's almost like they felt like they HAD to use every bit of the tape, so they would just stick random stuff at the end. Those Atari tech demos were pretty spiffy back in the day. Now it's antiquated, but still a sight to see. Just not one you'd expect to see at the end of a Ghostbusters VHS tape.

[@danking9936]

Having the intro to an animated show cut to just the title screen reminds me of how Toonatik in the UK used to air Spongebob episodes! It wasn't until I was in my mid teens that I found out Spongebob had had a theme song beyond just the bit where he whistles with his nose!

[@wstine79]

I remember the Return of the Living Dead 2 video having a commercial where you can call in to order T-Shirt and other merchandise. It had Tarman wearing the shirt.

[@gatchywatchyentertainmentb2090]

That sounds totally wicked!

[@emperortrevornorton3119]

I only remember that because of a friend who recorded a bunch of random shows and it was the one my favorite sequels so it stuck with me wish I was a bit older so I could have talked my brother into getting it for me

[@brianhebert6152]

Reminds me of how the manual for the C64 Friday the 13th game included info on a contest the publisher held where they gave away computer gear (e.g. monitors)

[@dubuyajay9964]

Neat. Let us know if you find it on the internet.

[@SwiftNimblefoot]

Here in Hungary too, a lot of classic movies were simply never released (or only decades later) in normal format, but we got the "dubbed over" VHS tapes in school, where one incredibly bored old lady would talk with zero enthusiasm over everyone's original english or german audio. And CAM recordings were common on the flea markets, but that was more of the CD/DVD era's time. They even printed covers for them and everything.

[@IvanTheVandal]

ever since i watched this video, that robot and its little song have been living in my head rent free. I think it's not a curse, but a cognito-hazard.

[@redwaytoo]

14:35 man, these tyoe of dubs were super-common right after the USSR broke up, to the point that the guys who did them became semi-famous, and people actually prefered watching these one-voice dubs over the more professional multi-voice ones

[@AnalogNoise]

this is common in most post-soviet countries, i live in poland and it's still practiced here

[@connorbeith3232]

I guess from their point of view, it's not too different from, say, Thomas The Tank Engine where the narrator also voices each character.

[@DragonslayerProd]

24:49 I like how in the Pizza World commercial, you can clearly see the V of fresh cheese they added around the slice in order to get the cheese pull on camera while the rest of the pizza is a completely inedible prop. This is standard for pizza ads, of course, but it usually doesn't look so obvious. They try to pick a color of cheese that actually matches the rest.

[@benjaminyoung9694]

That robot animation was awesome. The dithering from old crts really had cool shading effects. Tech lost in time

[@miahthorpatrick1013]

Ok, no joke, i love that little plug of Bootleg Zones! 😂

[@abchasi27]

I was in Israel in 2006 and they had a kosher Pizza Hut, where they seated patrons at a nice table and presented a menu. One of the nicest restaurant experiences I’ve ever had

[@LiamDalley-jd1kc]

I love seeing different versions of movies from international territories and how weird somethings can be

[@The_Str4nger]

17:40 that's german. It's from VIVA, the now defunct german equivalent of MTV

[@StCerberusEngel]

17:49 That's a German group. The text is in German as well. I wonder if this was a satellite feed that was intercepted since the tape is from Russia.

[@higiiray3]

It could be imported as the recording and copied on many different tapes. That's why there are many Disney cartoons or films from American channels and music videos from VIVA or non-Russian MTV. And yeah, we had a habit to record something on top of movies or anything we didn't interested in. Or just to fill the space, which was left on tape.

[@TDM1138]

It makes me sad how much we’re neglecting physical media. So much is going to end up lost in streaming service hell. I miss VHS days, I can still remember watching my old recording of Ghostbusters II taped off of HBO. I’d always double feature it with the recording immediately after, Wayne’s World 2. I got Jurassic Park when it was released and as either a 4 or 5 year old, I’m surprised that tape still worked before I got DVD copies to replace it.

[@brianhebert6152]

4:54 "Your honesty will be rewarded... with your demise..." 10:30 Oooh, a production slate! 12:15 I've seen some Russian prints of the old 90s Disney cartoons where it hangs on the Buena Vista International logo for a little over around 20-30 seconds. 17:40 Actually, that's a video by the German hip-hop group Fettes Brot. Oh, and there's a scroll at the bottom warning viewers of satellite frequency changes. 20:39 Zound is probably the dubbing studio, they also did the English dub of the obscure French cartoon Omer 20:44 The company is Clasikaletet, who were pretty successful back in the day, and even co-produced Hachaverim Shel Barney, the Israeli adaptation of Barney & Friends 21:55 Actually, that tape's in Catalan. 25:22 My theory is that someone (probably that Yaron Peare person or somebody who bought equipment from his shop) accidentally recorded over the tape with them screwing around with their Atari computer

[@SsnakeBite]

Seriously, that "Your honesty will be rewarded" coupled with the ominous music sounds like something an early 90's B-movie villain would say just before killing the henchman who brought him bad news.

[@ZekeAxel]

I watched the English dub of Omer as a child and it took me years to find out what it was...

[@grimbelfrixx3969]

7:40 Fettes Brot / they are a German Pop Rap group: 😂 kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnrMqaRvdtymq7Msi=qLTeHgNfV03q4rCn

[@holdingpattern245]

A Catalan dub, how bizarre. And there are also Valencian and Galician dubs, and separate dubs for Spain Spanish and Latin American Spanish.

[@ExtremeWreck]

Zound I would assume also did the Hebrew dub of Omer And the Starchild(A French cartoon) & the English dub was made by the same studio using a translated version of the Hebrew script.

[@Stuart267]

*06:36** I actually owned one of those VCR's back in the day. it was awkward as the flip-down part covering the VHS was actually quite heavy for some reason & you have to twist the dial to Fast Forward & Rewind at different speeds.*

[@brianhebert6152]

I'm glad the cheapo VCRs I had as a kid had easier-to-access controls, I guess.

[@user-lb9xw4xf2q]

Holy crap, that Roadshow TMNT tape was one that I'd rent all the time! I had to rent it because nowhere in town actually sold the tapes advertised. It's weird yet cool to see this bizarre VHS again.

[@jersy6406]

Are you planning on doing a video about the random ads you found on the recordings you were watching, too? That sounds fun.

[@DuplicatedOnce]

24:14 The Greek movie clips are from the 1960 film "Never on Sunday."

[@baynorac4724]

The Compy Shop walking footage reminds me of the 'lost episode' of Spongebob. This whole collection is so bizarre.

[@brianhebert6152]

"That's it? That's the tech demo for our advanced Atari computer? That was just a bunch of cheap walk cycles!" "What a rip!" "GRRRRR-who cares, let's just play Dandy."

[@boraxkid1097]

I wouldn't be surprised if you've heard of him, Phelan- but Brutalmoose has an AMAZING vhs series, called Mystery Tapes, that you might really get a kick out of.

[@redbigun]

The vhs days were weird and I'd give almost anything to have those days back again.

[@Morgil27]

When I was a kid, my grandpa was friends with a guy who owned a video store, and so he got a ton of those demo tapes for free.

[@GINTegg]

This has got to be one of the most entertaining videos you have ever published. I love vhs and all the strange unpredictable things that can happen when looking through tapes of questionable legitimacy. The atari demos, weird logos, and the MK Conquest tape are particular highlights.

[@ChaseMC215]

4:54 I like this. It's not trying to be like a VHS anti-piracy thing (I mean, it kinda is considering that it's a promotional tape), but it just kindly asks the viewer to call the number to report the tape that they have managed to rent, and in return would be rewarded. Although the ominous sound from what I think is a rare variant of the Roadshow Home Video logo that used that tune would startle someone.

[@soulagent79]

17:40 That's not Russian. It is a German music video from Viva TV, which used to be some kind of German MTV-knockoff and was quite popular in the 90s. Makes you wonder how it ended up on a Russian TMNT VHS.

[@brianhebert6152]

​​@Parkinski27 That's my guess as well. The scroll at the bottom of the VIVA recording seems to be warning viewers that the channel is switching satellite frequencies.

[@FrenchPaul1988]

With all the times he mentionned how long the blank screen or logos stayed on I found it all had a creepypasta feel. Then came the end... Ouch.

[@Dr.Gold-Dry-Bowser]

You weren't kidding about how bizarre the stuff in these VHS tapes were. It's like we're going down an acid trip. Most of the tapes I had were mostly normal. The more ya know when it comes to watching your videos.

[@jamesesw]

At 21:54 that's the Catalan dub of TMNT. That's the dub I grew up watching, very nostalgic.

[@jobrown95]

Can't say I expected someone to talk about a VHS tape of a Catalan dub, but it's pretty cool to see That commercial for Never on Sunday made me laugh so hard, someone asked me if I was okay

[@Antonio_Martinez]

9:35 If you’re watching on a phone and you zoom in on the VHS hand you can see that Phelous actually edited a VHS and so on. I found this out because I was curious if he really did it and I just love that little attention to detail.

[@DarkOverlord96]

I'm pretty sure there are, like... 10 pieces of lost media in this video.

[@JomasterTheSecond]

Holy crap, seeing that Village Roadshow logo has brought back so much nostalgia.

[@DanieluYoshikoto]

17:38 what the hell is the german pop band "Fettes Brot" doing here on a russian vhs? WHAT. (For context, the song is "Können diese Augen lügen." /can these eyes lie?, the recording seems to be from VIVA, a german MTV competitor also running music tv)

[@ValerieTheBat]

I feel like any international or bootleg home video release always have its quirks that makes it unique or just plain old bizzare. It's kind of a lost art in my opinion.

[@LeeONardo]

The strangest (well funniest) thing we had was funnily enough on a Ghostbusters VHS. It had both movies on the tape and inbetween it would show an episode of an old black and white batman series before advertising the whole series in a VHS collection.

[@beegyosh8262]

18:47 This is actually an ad for I presume Tom and Jerry Kids releases from the same publisher as a voiceover can be faintly heard saying something along the lines of "Ellas Kosmos Video presents" before the footage used in this video cuts off. I don't blame you for not hearing it as it's very badly mixed.

[@AndiousWandarier]

Every time I see weird stuff like that in foreign bootlegs, I like to pretend it's not a mistake but simply a different culture thing in some remote part of the country the bootleggers come from. "Kids over there like to doodle the logo for the company of the movie they just watched, and a lot of their parents WILL write angry letters if the logo isn't on screen long enough for them to memorize it." "Those brief segments of other shows in the middle of the movie is because grandpa falling asleep on the remote is such a big part of everyone's household that any movie that didn't include that would just feel wrong." "Ending a movie with Atari demos is just how they do things there, people'd be rioting in the streets if they didn't include those."

[@furonguy42]

Forget Pac-Man or Pitfall, Ominously-Walking-Toward-You-Bot was the real standout Atari publication!

[@brianhebert6152]

I can't believe Tengen didn't give it a unlicensed NES port!

[@ExtremeWreck]

Pitfall! was Activision(they were former Atari employees yes, but still it's Activision & Atari S.A. doesn't own the rights to Pitfall!)

[@Dreadjaws]

14:19 - This sort of thing has always puzzled me. I've watched several clips of compilations showing how certain movie scenes were dubbed to other languages and every time the scene in Russian showed up it sounded like this. I used to think they were clips either grabbed from bootleg productions or just hastily dubbed by the uploader but no, it turns out this is how they do most of the official dubbings in Russia: by keeping the original voices and awkwardly talking over them, with zero attempt at voice acting. I understand this is cheaper but come on. How can you even watch movies like this?

[@munk237]

I had a Ring Raiders vhs when I was a kid and right in the middle of the tape was a commercial for all kinds of Ring Raider swag. Curtains, sheets, toys, comics, watches, sunglasses ect. Good times lol

[@brianhebert6152]

I'm surprised they didn't have the characters pop up and say "BUY OUR MERCH" during that whole segment!

[@Lowback]

The second TMNT Hebrew logo says "ClassiKaletet" (Kaletet means tape in Hebrew).

[@TheRocketLombax]

I think that maybe the atari 'demoscene' esq stuff was probably Yaron recording on the end of the ghostbusters tape, or maybe the disturber put it on the tape since there was audience overlap with atari computers and ghostbusters?

[@pgj1997]

1:25 That's why I always stan physical media. Screw the people who say streaming is the future. Nothing compares to actually owning a copy of something that you can be sure will always be there.

[@nousukas]

Some Finnish tapes also had just intros of other cartoons maybe being commercials. I think Captain N had the Intro of Camp Candy in it, eventough we never had Camp Candy on vhs or on tv. It also has a Super Mario brothers 3 commercial in the tape.

[@nousukas]

Just checked and there actually was 2 Camp candy tapes released. My mistake never heard of it.

[@MentalLiberation]

I remember something like this happening for me. Okay, the first time I saw the movie double dragon, it was on the VHS that was definitely recorded on the worst quality. And to top it off, to go along with the screen bleeding and tearing, somebody recorded part of a Cheech Marin film in the 3rd part of the film. Talk about brutal. Great video

[@TomMSTie1138]

The next Ghostbusters movie should start with the FIVE YEARS LATER title card, but played eight times.

[@brianhebert6152]

I'm from Portugal, and watched Turtles when it originally aired here in 1991. I can confirm we had the HERO version, and the singer (American) also sang 'Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles'. Not sure if this was different in the later dubbed re-runs, as I was too old by then.

[@RedHatMeg]

17:43 - it's not a Russian music video. It's a German music video. In fact it's from German music channel Viva, which, I guess, was included in Russian cable TV.

The Australian Turtles dub preview was totally ridiculous and also very funny and unique. I love the insane wacky stuff from the Russian and Hebrew tapes too!

[@BriahnAznable]

The amount of times I said what the fuck during this video is astounding. That ending is amazing, I love seeing what life would be like without quality control. Atari Robot/Music at the end of your Ghostbusters definitely sounds like a creepypasta you'd hear on the playground when you're 7 hahahaha I'm so happy you decided to randomly go all the way through these bootlegs, doing God's work out there.
