VHS to RIP


Today the last VHS company announced that they are closing its doors. The last notable distributor of VHS films -- Distribution Video Audio out of Palm Harbor, Florida -- has shipped its final truckload of tapes, probably to a small town library or a mom 'n pop shop in a place you'll never hear of. I felt nostalgic because thanks to the VHS, movies were allowed to our homes to entertained us for hours at a time. So in honor of the now defunct recording device, here are my favorite VHS movies from my childhood:


  • Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

  • Electric Boogaloo

  • Grease 1

  • Grease 2

  • Staying Alive

  • White Nights ( can you see the dance theme?)

  • Dirty Dancing

RIP VHS it was fun while it lasted.
