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!

DEATH WISH 4 : THE CRACKDOWN
JANUARY 21 VHS HISTORY LEASON : TRANS WORLD ENTERTAINMENT (TWE)
Anyone who rented films or went to theaters in the 80's should be very familiar with TWE. They were a dominating force in the VHS rental market as well as a production and releasing company for theatrical films. While people were renting their horror, action and martial arts flicks in video stores, TWE was also distributing low-budget exploitation films to theaters. Titles such as PRAY FOR DEATH (1985), SWORD OF HEAVEN (1986), IRON WARRIOR (1986), COMMANDO SQUAD (1987), TWISTED NIGHTMARE (1987), RAGE OF HONOR (1987), I, MADMAN (1989) and other were seen on the big screen before their release to video (oddly, most of them were released by Media Home Video on VHS). Very few video distributors did this (I can only think of Vestron Video doing the same thing) and it eventually led to their downfall in 1991. Losses steming from their theatrical arm bleeding money forced them to close-up shop, but their legend lives on, thanks to the durability of the VHS cassette. TWE released a lot of genre product including Horror (MONSTER DOG, REDNECK ZOMBIES, CURSE II:THE BITE), Exploitation (THE EMPEROR CALIGULA, GOD'S BLOODY ACRE, JAILBIRD ROCK, ), Action (CODE NAME: ZEBRA, THE TORMENTERS, BARE KNUCKLES) and a string of Martial Arts films (most of them with the word "Ninja" somewhere in the title). Much of the TWE library is still unavailable on DVD and, thanks to eBay, can still be purchased for a song on VHS. For all of you that have thrown away your VCRs: Shame, shame, shame! { text from critcononline.com }
