Raise your hand if you were brought here by "Rent-A-Pal"...
Yep
andy
🙋🏻♂️
Totally 💯 I was lonely and this movie just hit home literally my life
It’s crazy that some of the dialogue is pretty much word for word!
Hi friends! This is "Sam" a.k.a. Ben Hollis. Thanks to Davey at Found and Nick and Joe at Found Footage Festival for bringing new life to Rent-A-Friend -- thirty years after I created it. Amazing. Whether you find "Sam" funny or creepy, insightful or ridiculous, thank you for dropping by. You give me a kick, let me tell you!
I wish "Sam" had more videos,he is awesome. I really thought it was a great creation that you did.
Ben Hollis' W.I.L.D. Life Video Channel You, Sir, are a genius. Thank you for your contribution.
Joshua Schuder Just look at his channel - it's clearly him.
you were my friend today Sam when i was feeling down. thank you!
What you did here was really cool. We live in an era of increasing loneliness, and it takes guts to do something as excentric as this. Mad props!
So THIS is what a serial killer/stalker's victim(s) last moments must be like, all the while gagged and tied to a chair in a basement.
😂😂😂 yea no kidding
Lol!
Anyone else got brought here because of the new film RENT-A-PAL? Wow!! Inspiration indeed!
True
This shit is too funny when your high lol
What’s the difference between this and the ASMR “caring friend” roleplay videos on TH-cam now? We’ve come full circle.
Exactly my thoughts
I saw a short clip of this and went is search of the full video because it gave me tingles. This worked as a perfect unintentional ASMR video.
I think that's why Rent-A-Pal is giving me an exestential crisis. What if there are people like that out there?
Well f-k me 😦 I never thought about it like that 🤯
RENT-A-PAL brought me here... Can't believe what I'm watching here !
The similarities are unnerving
@@kennethbrynleyjohnsweet4252 - RENT-A-PAL was specifically based on this video.
@@ERey362 I'm glad I found out! I've been wondering if it was based on anything actually from the 80's.
Kinda disappointed we didn't end up in bed, I thought things were going great!
"with a plyable face, you can get away with murder." If that's not a stone cold confession, I don't know what is.
I know. Just look at his face when he says it. Omg. I'm not giving him my address. Nooooo way.
Lol!
Just watched Rent A Pal. They pulled material from this strange video.
They sure did
They copied it word for word
im thinking rent a pal was literally inspired by this directly
Wow. Your some kinda genius huh? Lmao
I lost it when the phone rang and he picked it up and put it down to show how invested he is in what you're saying. Holy shit.
Cannot watch any more of this!
Wonder if the call was from his former "friend".
hahahaha LOL!!! :P
LOL that must be where rent-a-pal got this from
Wouldn't wanna fuck up your girlfriends relationship for rent a friend😅
I don't know who's lonelier: Sam or the people who bought this.
So this is where Rent-a-Pal (2020) comes from?
Yes
Yep
When he "takes a look around my place" I feel especially violated
Same
And when he pointed , he was actually pointing to something on my wall even creepier
I can never think of anything to say during his silences ;_;
half expect the camera to pan round at the end to someone tied to a chair gagged
This got very weird real quick.
Yes I am here because or Rent-A-Pal. I have to say something about this does draw you in. This actors did a fine job actually. What an odd idea, but I see why it landed in the 1980's. It should re-emerge. It would be a hit during covid time.
"And also nose grease.. Nose grease is very important to me"
What in the actual fuck
Wtf is ur username. Mocking a hero who exposed mass church abvses. P4thetic
Rent a pal.. movie of the decade
2011-2020 or 2020-2029?
Nah
I feel like that guy's sweater is made from human hair and that he kills people on the side.
Did you see worlds dumbest?
45Vinylscratch Aye that I did Vinyl. That's what brought me here.
45Vinylscratch Im watching it right now
Baron Bacon Beware.
He probably has a well in his basement n he's looking for his next victim w/ this video.
I'm trying very hard to see the difference between this and Facebook, but I can't.
Who is here because of Rent-A-Pal?
Y’know, this might actually bring joy to a lot of people even 30 years later. Yes, the movie did a great job of why some people need to get out more, but it actually is nice for some people to have someone to talk to.
10:35 is where I go insane
so fucking uncomfortable
If this guy was whispering, this would be a pioneer ASMR video.
this guy has helped me a lot during covid
Are you serious with Facebook
instructions unclear: murdered mother and got stabbed by my love
He's so sincere. I feel like he actually likes me.
The part where he demonstrates the pliability of his nose after what I assume is extensive cocaine damage is horrifying.
Lmaoooo
Yep.
I thought the EXACT same 😂😢
Sam is much less creepy than Andy! Just get a silly, harmless vibe from him. On the one hand I worry about the original being consulted and/or compensated especially considering how disturbing the movie got. At the very least I hope it brings him traffic!
“Sound fuxking weird Andy” 🌝
1:21
Sounds fucking weird, Sam...
NOSE GREASE.
WHO *IS* THIS GUY? WHAT IS THIS FOR?
MKBHD anyone?

Who’s here because they watched rent a pal?
Is there a back story to this? I’m sure the movie Rent-a-Pal was inspired by this. But if really like to know the story.
Just
Just smoked some weed and watched up to 4:14. Never again
I’m in this exact situation and stopped at the same time duuudeee
Omgggg I'm high as fk and right after I watched the movie. I'm really tripping! I'm scared xD is he gonna break into my house???
Last week, I told my mom to play this at her sister's funeral because no one is gonna have good things to say. This video will keep people busy for a while. She didn't think it's a good idea.
Okayyyy, you got a whole gigantic story there bud. 😂 Just dropped it, lit the fuse and walked away
10:25 Had to witness this myself after listening to the Found podcast. The sound has been burned into my memory forever!! 😱
The mating call of the devil 😢😂
this is the most primal example of a pyschopath I've ever witnessed
why?
@@pladimir_vutin idk he just really seems like he's hiding something sinister. This is a fake film btw, and that was a big part of its intention as far as I know, to make him seem kinda off.
this is so fucking depressing
I feel as if this guy is going to come and kidnap me if I watch this entire video. I'm laughing but at the same time, I feel sullied.
When he said that he knew my name, what I looked like, and where I lived, he sounded like a creepy stalker.
I'm watching this 7 years later and I'm feeling the same thing. Ma dude, you still alive???
This guy is the zodiac killer
This is UN. FUCKING. BELIEVABLE. I love this man who bashes down the phone. Twice.
This person would drive me insane if he was my friend.
Who else is here because of MKBHD? (2019)
Remember the part in Dora the Explorer where you can answer before she says "me too!"? This is exactly like that. It's the closest we can get to "interactive TV" lol
this got me through some rough times in my life, luckily my friend was always there, I was quite embarrassed though when he look around my house and I was on the toilet.
peter8488 kmsl ctfu!
Now days we call this "RolePlay ASMR"
Everybody: i'm here by rent-a-pal
Me: wtf i'm here by my english class
PD:Ññ
I'm really an awkward person, he is just very normal to me and also he is kinda cute.
( ･ั﹏･ั) He made my dinner. Better.
I didn't know Rent-a-pal has an adaptation 😮
Has anyone ever been able to watch the whole vid?
I'm surprised I'm 9 minutes into it...
I play it at parties.
I kinda feel like he’s getting ready to kill me when he’s ending the video
Sure this guy doesn't work for the NSA?
im gunna pull the trigger
Wait, this is real? Holy crap.
4:21 " i got your face and your name, and now im seeing where you live"
RUN FOR UR LIFE!!!
Just what you need in lockdown 😂😂
He scares me..... I can't finish watching...
I'm so scared yet I wanna see if I can watch the whole thing but I'm too scared lol I feel like he's gonna kidnap me
who is here after watching MKBSD's video?
He looks like someone Patrick Bateman would hang out with.
And Norman Bates
I know people make fun of this but maybe this kept some lonely person from doing something terrible. I think probably none of you have any idea what goes through the mind of a person who has no one or thinks they have no one. So stop and think before criticizing.
He don't have ceiling fans in his part of the country.
😂😂😂
That cat is long dead by now
In real life this guy ate my neighbor. But in a very comforting way.
so he is gay?'
This is really uncomfortable to watch, I can not fathom the idea of someone actually renting this vhs un-ironically
i cant believe that this was an actually real thing
If this is you Nancy? He already finds out your name right at the start
This will be getting views soon
Holy shit this is were they got the idea for the movie rent a pal if anyone hasnt heard of that movie check it out its based off of this
I completely lost it at "would you like to bite my nose?" 7:16
7:14 the creepy smile
19:07 I don't think that game is what he thought it was.
Looking for a lovely lady to play "trees" with. *_creepy smile_*
Give this guy a break! He's obviously still traumatised after this experience.
Paranoia hit when he heard them helicopters
Dexter prequel.
Tf is wrong with society these days, this is how adults should act. I haven’t met a single person in my life that has reminded me of Mr Roger’s or someone like this literally ever. And it’s sad
8 out of 10 Cats brought me here years ago and I thought I'd revisit just to hear Nyaw Nyaw Nyaw Nyaw Nyaw Nyaw!
It's feels so real, in a very weird way
this video is 2000 times funnier played at half speed.
I laughed for almost 20 minutes...you won the internet today!!!
Most things are, Harry. Thanks for watching.
loooool mate,you deserve a damn beer
Ultimate cringe vol. 10
Makes me wanna push my sick momma down the stairs. :-) Nice digs, pal !
Wow I don't believe you!!! They say friends are full of surprises, but that really, really, took me by suprise!!!..
@Sabrina Mitchell You play like a natural.
Sam is my best friend
Who went to find this due to World's Dumbest? Made me way more curious than I probably should be.
7:41, what?
who kept calling him? The po-po?
We've all done that... All the time
Whats the little yellow labled glass bottle at 00:45???????
This is why I am a shut-in!!!
The first time he did this in one take but realized the camera had no film inside afterwards.
goodbye sam I will always treasure what we shared here today
Your sweater is made from human hair right
When will I learn not to click a link that Josh Groban tweets?
I was just thinking that
You don't understand quirky or outside the box...
I was being sarcastic. Hey, it was better than saying, "Josh Groban sent me."
JanJohnsonNYC irony in your message.
Z-generation may actually benefit from this - Most of them don't know how to talk to a real person...
ok boomer
@@karkmeane819 he's right though
@@karkmeane819 He's probably a Gen X, by the looks of it. Not a boomer. And neither am I, before you say it 😂
He's not such a bad guy, after watching the whole video. 😯🤔🤭
I saw VHS revolution and it talked about this and I had to look and see if it was on TH-cam. So great! Now I need to see rent-a-pal. What a world!!! 🤣😛😜
I want to comment on this, but I have no words.
This is the best video I've ever seen.
Seriously, can someone check on Nancy?
I thought that was Ben from Wild Chicago. I didnt know he made this. 👍
1) Where is my dollar from 39:00. 2) What happens if you send a video to the address at 40:30. (No I didn't watch the whole thing lol)
