Need your Friday the 13th fix? Check out 13 FANBOY, a 2021 indie slasher just in time for Halloween from @deskpopentertainment, released on DVD by @millcreekent. Find my #YouTube review link in my bio. Written review at MoviesandDrinks.com

KNIGHT RIDER turns 40! On this day in 1982, Knight Rider premiered on NBC. In my latest video, a look at KR physical media, books & other items, along with some personal memories of my favorite childhood show! (Link to channel in bio)

Some new pick-ups from @vinegarsyndrome sharing space with my popcorn maker. Unboxing vid linked in bio.

Cash money for an Amazon return?? In my latest video, a few of my favorite stories from when my online orders of physical media went off the rails. (Link in bio.)

NEW YORK NINJA was released in 2021, but looks an awful lot like 1984. Great production by @vinegarsyndrome, with soundtrack by @voyag3rband. My YouTube review linked in description (& my written review can be found at moviesanddrinks.com

Today's arrival from @shoutfactory: the 1978 TV film, DR. STRANGE.

Fun in the sun with MAGNUM PI: THE COMPLETE SERIES on Blu-ray! Happy to see @millcreekent keeping the physical media flame burning for vintage TV. Link to unboxing in bio.

A little unboxing of a sealed 1983 Galaxian cartridge for the Atari 2600. I purchased it 15-20 years ago on Ebay. Link to video in description.

Took in a little artificial revenge with STEEL AND LACE (1991), video store-era fun released on Blu-ray by @vinegarsyndrome.

I legit chuckled my way thru 1989's THE LAUGHING DEAD - as it should be! Another nice Blu-ray restoration from @vinegarsyndrome. I talk about it in my video (link in bio).

A lil Chuck Norris in my most recent video (link in bio). BREAKER! BREAKER! (1977) is a fun ride through the rural, truck-drivin', CB-talkin' late 70s!

Watched THE SLAYER (1982) & enjoyed the ambiguous ghost story vibes mixed w/slashery feels. Released by @arrowvideo. Link in bio to my video review.
