FEBRUARY 9 VHS HISTORY LEASON : VIDAMERICA INC.

This independent video distributor existed from 1980 till 1992. In those twelve years, it manages to satisfy nearly every type of film lover. VidAmerica originally licensed hundreds of films from the RKO library, including a lot of films from the 30's, 40's & 50's, including the Astaire and Rogers musical TOP HAT, Alfred Hitchcock's UNDER CAPRICORN and SUSPICION, Charles Laughton's version of THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME and Howard Hawk's THE THING, all on video for the first time. Along the way, VidAmerica dabbled in many sublabels which distributed children's videos ("Forever Fairytales") , animation series  (SPEED RACER, FELIX THE CAT, THE MIGHTY HERCULES), Australian films ("Koala Family Kollection"), sport documentaries ("Boxing's Best"), self-help and medical tapes. The sublabel that would interest readers of this site most is probably their buyer-affordable "World's Worst Videos" line of obscure (at the time) and just-plain weird films. The Worlds Worst Video roster included Al Adamson's BLOOD OF GHASTLY HORROR, HOSPITAL OF TERROR, BLAZING STEWARDESSES, HORROR OF THE BLOOD MONSTERS and DRACULA VS. FRANKENSTEIN, the Paul Naschy-starrer HOUSE OF PSYCHOTIC WOMEN, Jorge Grau's VIOLENT BLOODBATH and HORROR OF THE ZOMBIES a chapter of the "Blind Dead" series of films by Armando De Ossorio. Unfortunately, most of these films were the edited TV prints, missing most of the blood and nudity. It didn't matter to most buyers because it was the first time these films were available anywhere in any form (I personally own six of them!). VidAmerica also unleashed the unedited versions of Meir Zarchi's  I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE (and his lame sophomore effort DON'T MESS WITH MY SISTER!), Herk Harvey's CARNIVAL OF SOULS and William Grefe's STANLEY (still the only unedited version out there). Other notable VidAmerica releases include THE UNSEEN (still one of my favorites), DON'T LOOK IN THE BASEMENT, BEYOND DREAM'S DOOR, CHILDREN SHOULDN'T PLAY WITH DEAD THINGS and HUMAN EXPERIMENTS, most on video for the first time. { text from critcononline.com }
