Hello and welcome to VHS Wasteland! VHS WASTELAND is your home for high resolution scans of rare, strange, and forgotten vhs covers. Each of these bizarre gems is scanned at 200 dpi. Our staff of over 40 contributors (and more added all the time) scans and posts between 15-30 new covers every day along with reviews, trailers and much more! So bookmark our homepage and check the site often! Simply click on the thumbnail of any vhs cover to download the full high res format. We'd also love submissions from you. If you have a vhs that is weird or rare, you can find info on what we are looking for here.
FREE PUPPIES: Want to help us out? An easy way to do so without any real effort on your part at all is to make this page your home page. It would give us more hits and help bring in a few precious pennies in ad space. Come on, do it now. Why are you not doing it? What, do you hate us or something? Do it and we'll be your best friend... And we'll give you a puppy. Legal disclaimer: the staff of vhs wasteland has no intentions of giving you a puppy. Are you not doing it because you don't know how? Here's a link that explains how to do it. There now you have no excuse. Do it now. Oh, and also be sure to check out our new online store and get yourself some great vhs wasteland merchandise. Come on... We'll give you a puppy. Dang it, why haven't you made this your homepage yet? You used to be cool man.
Also, why not visit our parent sites (madhatterdesign.net and serialkillercalendar.com). They have nothing to do with vhs covers but i think you might be pleasantly surprised by what you find. Or not. I don't know you. Maybe your not surprised by anything. Maybe your the kind of guy that sees a cow fall out of the sky and explode like a piñata and your all like "huh, that was weird." man. What's wrong with you anyway? Jeez. Some people.
OUR WISH LIST: Our wish list: we are always looking for new movie reviewers and vhs contributors to join our vhs wasteland team. If you have something strange or rare you, we would love to include it on the site. You would, of course, get full credit for your contribution and be added to our ever growing staff page. Some of the titles we are looking for right now include (but are in no way limited to) "dancing grannies" "bambi meets godzilla" and any kind of insane religious vhs. You can click here for instructions on how to scan and submit these covers or, if you are the coolest person ever and want us to promote the crap out of you (or your website) you can mail us the actual vhs tape to add to our collection. Either way, contact us for more info!

JANUARY 23 VHS HISTORY LEASON : THRILLER VIDEO
When I made people aware that I was doing a visual tour of video companies of the 80's, I heard "Are you going to do ThrillerVideo?" more times than I care to remember. ThrillerVideo was a sub-label of Family Home Entertainment (which also ran the Monterey Home Video and U.S.A. Home Video labels) and was active for a short period, from 1983 - 1986. ThrillerVideo released most of their product in big colorful boxes and the majority of them were hosted by Elvira, who would do her schtick at the beginning of the film, interrupt it during the middle and the show up at the end of the flick to show trailers of coming ThrillerVideo attractions. Most of Elvira's hosting duties were on episodes of British TV's 1980 series HAMMER HOUSE OF HORROR and ran less than 60 minutes each. Elvira didn't host ThrillerVideo's episodes of Britian's 70's series of 90 minute mystery films called THRILLER (shown on ABC's WIDE WORLD OF ENTERTAINMENT and WIDE WORLD OF MYSTERY at 11:30 PM during the mid to late 70's in the U.S.). Elvira also hosted the odd horror film, such as Fredric Hobb's strangely facinating ALABAMA'S GHOST (which really needs a DVD release), the ultimate badfilm NATAS: THE REFLECTION and Dan Curtis' TV adaption of THE STRANGE CASE OF DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE. But, even Elvira had her standards. She refused to host five of ThrillerVideo's more extreme horror films, citing that hosting them would damage her credibility (!). Those films were: MAKE THEM DIE SLOWLY, NIGHTSTALKER (aka: DON'T GO NEAR THE PARK), BURIED ALIVE, DOCTOR BUTCHER M.D. and THE 7 DOORS OF DEATH. These five films in their big boxes command the most money on the collector's market of all the ThrillerVideo releases, mainly because they were uncut and they weren't interrupted by Elvira's sometimes cringe-inducing jokes and gags. { text from critcononline.com }
