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!
Thank you to wildeyereleasing.com for sending us a big box of vhs tapes! As an extra thank you to them, we will be putting their banner at the top of the site for the rest of the month. Any person or company that mails us a box of VHS tapes, will have their banner moved to the top of our links page and get their banner put on the top of the homepage for several weeks. Plus MORE!

FEBRUARY 6 VHS HISTORY LEASON : UNITED HOME VIDEO/VCI HOME VIDEO
These are two related companies that should be important to every serious video collector, even if for different reasons. VCI Home Video (which is still in business today) was a very early player in the VHS market and released some very choice titles in the early days of home video. The old VCI cardboard slipcases were rather drab, with a gray and black border (with epaulets on the bottom) with the film's poster artwork in the middle. But, some of the titles were desirable (even today): SWAP MEET, SCREAMS OF A WINTER NIGHT, NAKED PARADISE, LEGEND OF THE WOLF WOMAN and many others were released in the late 70's and early 80's, many commanding big bucks on the collector's market today. United Home Video, on the other hand, had the claim of releasing the first SOV made-for-home video film (a claim that I find suspect) in 1985. That film would be BLOOD CULT and it was a smash hit, causing nearly every video distributor to try their hand at producing and releasing cheap SOV films. BLOOD CULT was so big that a sequel was made (the slightly-better REVENGE) the next year and they also made THE RIPPER starring Tom Savini. United released a lot of their early films in colorful clamshell cases, but later began releasing films in standard cardboard slipcases before disappearing in the early 90's. During the 80's, it was nearly impossible not to rent a horror film that wasn't released by United or VCI, especially some of the rarer titles (at the time). ASYLUM OF SATAN, INVASION OF THE GIRL SNATCHERS, SCREAM BLOODY MURDER, SATAN'S CHEERLEADERS, MY BROTHER HAS BAD DREAMS, COPPERHEAD and NIGHT OF THE BLOODY TRANSPLANT were just some of the rare titles distributed by United and VCI. They were a driving force in the formative years of video distribution and should get a pat on the back for keeping us entertained for years. { text from critcononline.com }
