Always cool to see my name pop up. Cheers pal. Your video quality is impeccable. Great work

I remember VHS well enough to have ZERO nostalgia for it. Digital formats are a blessing for reproduction. When it comes to recording I prefer movies being shot on film.

As someone that was born and raised during the VHS era, this feels like a full circle moment. I’m not even into this kind of horror that much but I appreciate horror fans like you for being enthusiastic for such a niche release.

Standard VHS tapes were about 2 hours at the normal SP speed. Sometimes, studios were able to squeeze in a little more tape to fit a 2 hour 20 minute movie (I still have the copies of Shawshank and T2 I bought in college that are on one tape). Usually, a flick didn’t get put out on 2 tapes unless it was at or over the 3 hour mark.

I’d like to add an extra comment after watching more of your review. The screen going to black and coming back is not really typical of VHS or any other analog video format (beta and Laserdisc). If that’s a stylistic choice, it’s an odd one. VHS tapes had different on screen issues like horizontal white scratches at the top and bottom of the screen every so often (called tape tracking). The screen going completely black like that seems more like a digital issue - maybe in the process of transferring the film to tape, something caused it.

Terrifier 1 & 2 are available on 4k in the UK. It's the 'Bloody Duo' steelbook release. Enjoying the channel, keep up the good work!

[@freddykruger1118]

I believe it's two tapes to keep the picture quality to its highest

Seems a poor choice to have made the VHS 4:3. I’d rather have had it wide/letterbox to have the full image than lose half of it for the sake of nostalgia

[@jamespetkwitz8737]

Honestly I don't like the black frame inserts on the transfer. Personally I would have liked to maybe see inserted Tracking glitches, or worn out tape sections around nudity or around a kill. If you are going to have fun with the transfer for collectors... That would have been way more realistic, than simply black frames.. I can understand going to 4:3 crop.. fill up as much of modern TV's as possible. It does just seem like they quickly cropped the frame on either side like a shitty VHS would have done back in the day, but I would have expected someone to go in and recompose shots a bit better if they really wanted to release it this way as a cool novelty thing

VHS is best for horror movies

Love VHS. Back in the mid 2000s I had well over 1000 VHS tapes with every show and film you could think of due to getting an early start in the mid 80s. My Walmart had one VHS copy on the shelf, and about five M3GAN dolls on Monday. M3GAN was $15 so I picked her up, and begrudgingly left the VHS mostly because we didn't get any new cover artwork for this VHS release. They could have done something retro 80s, but instead just reprinted the non special edition blu ray / dvd cover art. No way I was walking to the back of the store again so I left it at the check out. I go back 3 days later, and it's back in it's spot as if it was just waiting on me or something. I guess we only had two other VHS horror enthusiasts in our local area, and our local scalper didn't get the memo about this item. I had a gift card so I put it in my cart so that I wouldn't regret it. Not sure if I'm going to keep it, but at least I have a few days to think it over. Thanks for taking the time to do this side by side comparison video. This video pushed me over the edge to pull the trigger and buy it.

[@AVAPopCulture]

great job man! great comparsion and breakdown! I went for the "aged crappy" feeling that you are talking about with my movie set in 1979 and I love that "feel"....great video!

[@g3ckoizlethal]

Great video! Thank you for making it!

[@OhItsRoodie]

Thanks for the comparisons

[@TheCranberrySource]

Is the tape pillar box 4:3 for modem 16:9 TVs or actually a 4:3 tape? Because playing a pillar box tape back on a CRT would be a nightmare.

[@ThornTheaterReviews]

I appreciate this comparison for sure. I'm not a fan of the terrifier series at all but I love that vhs may make a comeback similar to vinyl.

[@80sMadeConsumer]

Great video! I opened mine immediately just haven’t gotten around to watching it yet, I would’ve liked different art work. I’ll be watching this on an old CRT

[@JOHNDOEJUGGALO]

Very cool video. Thanks for the comparison. Seems to me like we all flocked to a good product this time with this vhs.

[@rustyblades2566]

I collect alot of ex rental Australian VHS and Betamax movies. Great to see a modern horror being released on VHS format. Incidentally I got a CHH notification shortly after you mentioning you found out about Terrifier 2 being released on VHS through CHH's channel lol.

[@AVAPopCulture]

yessir! let's do this thing!
