Nintendo on Elm Street!
to illustrate just how tired i am, i ain’t capitalizing shit tonight. don’t even have the energy to link to today’s main site video, which is the whole reason i picked this video for after dark:
it’s a complete playthrough of the old nightmare on elm street nintendo game. i thought i was at least vaguely familiar with this one, but i definitely do not remember what i’m seeing here. (and what i’m seeing is awesome. game looks like a halloween version of double dragon.)
enjoy!
ps: 80% chance i’ve run this video before. too tired to check!
Back to the Future Part II: Special Presentation
This sounds rad. Here’s a Back to the Future Part II TV special that aired on NBC back in ’89. Promotional fluff of the best sort, and it’s hosted by Leslie Nielsen, to boot!
(And yes, tonight’s pick was influenced by today’s main site article, wherein I model several pairs of wacky BTTF sunglasses.)
Enjoy!

Here Comes Garfield!
I like to connect the main page to After Dark whenever possible, so since I just covered an old Garfield book found at the flea market, I thought I’d give the fat cat another at-bat:
Here Comes Garfield was our pal’s first-ever animated special, from way back in ’82. It feels like the first one, too. The characters have rougher designs, and it’s soooo weird to hear Jon with a different voice. Still a fun watch!
