A friend of mine reminded me tonight about this great movie from the 1980s.. he said he was catching a viewing of it this Friday night. FRIGHT NIGHT was a special kind of horror–and his message reminded me of the spectacular VHS cover that always caught my eye in my local video store back in the day..
Were these times simpler as we all think they were? Or were we just blinded..
Those who read this post and say “the old man is talking about VHS movies again” just will not comprehend the time.. the idea of not scrolling through on a screen but checking to see if the little yellow card was still rubber banded to the back of the movie in the store…
Sure, modern times are great. Easy.. Any movie you want at your fingertips.
But that quest.. that hunt.. that time when a movie was not there.. when you had to wait until it was returned.. they were kind of.. simpler?
