I remember when we got our first VHS player, must have been about 1986-7, what a whole new world it opened. Our first video was Gremlins and it had a trailer for Rocky IV on it, as well as some jarg looking Madona song romance film called Crazy for You.
There was a Ritz video shop in Speke parade and it was a magic fucking place indeed. Robocop, Transformers the Movie, and any number of other great films and some highly suss straight-to-video titles available. This was before Sky Moves and all that bollocks, and back then you knew the people in those video shops - they were adults too, not these spotty cunts you get today.
Video, some-one-still-loves-yooouuuuu!
