    I just recently found a bunch of my old recorded vhs tapes. It’s like stepping back in time, seeing the commercials. Super nostalgic and I love it.

    Just started VHS collecting and my wife hates it, but that ain't stopping me! My prized possession us Dolemite.

      Luckily my wife is very supportive of the movie collecting. Offer to let her pick out some movies too and it could make it fun for both of you.

    I’m starting to hate VHS tapes they’re moldy and I have no idea how to clean them
    I think I prefer DVDs generally as long as they’re in the case they’re probably fine

    • @xaviersejour9183
      @xaviersejour9183 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      For what I can tell cleaning VHS tapes requires a $800 machine or two VCRs when I don’t even have one.

    • @HomeVideoHangouts

      Ya I think formats that came after vhs can be easier to maintain

      Get the VHS tapes out of high-humidity environments like the basement, garage, or attic. For those tapes that are already moldy, all you need is a bottle of isopropyl alcohol and some shammy swabs. You can find good tutorials on TH-cam to fix your moldy tapes.

    Amanda and the Alien just got its first ever blu-ray release by AGFA (American Genre Film Archive) the successor to Something Weird Video.

    People like myself are recoding movies on VHS tapes from Disney plus everything looks like it did on Disney plus

    Well, movies like THAT 3:51 probably WILL BE put out in streaming form eventually, just give it time. Just as it probably took a while for them to come out on vhs too (not everything got released ALL AT ONCE in THAT format either I'm sure).

    • @HomeVideoHangouts
      @HomeVideoHangouts  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That would be interesting if amanda and the alien went to streaming.

    HD DVD is what I got into this year. The format that should have won. 😢

      Not a bad format

    Not just VHS, but people should be collecting ALL physical media. There will be no more physical media in years to come!

    You found Amanda and the Alien on VHS? I had to buy a bootleg DVD back in 2006.

    • @HomeVideoHangouts
      @HomeVideoHangouts  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes I was able to pick it up on amazon from a third party seller.

    what about the responsibility of archiving the media?
    i do wish we had more archivists instead of JSUT collectors.

    TV's more of the problem i know everything some TV's put more greater quality in your vhs tapes and some other TVs taking quality out of your vhs tapes that is the truth

  • @DerEhrwurden

    I think the horror genre is really only meant to be watched in VHS quality to really get that level of immersion on the exception of a few other genres like maybe Star Wars (Anything 80's really). The horror VHS tapes are going for astronomical amounts of money. I'm thankful to have gotten Return of the Living Dead '84 at a decent price before the price hike.

    No, No, No 1,000 times. The thrift stores in my area don't watch them all the way through. They are wrinkled, they scratch my VHS heads. They are missing parts of the movie, etc...

    Upscale VHS? 🤣
    Only the amount of titles on VHS could be a reason to go look for one. Apart maybe from wanting to own all versions of your favorite movie. But how many would you be collecting like that?
    Minimalism goes against collecting anything, I guess.
