Dino Drac After Dark

Random SNES Playthroughs!

I love watching video game playthroughs.

Well, “watching” might not be the right word. I just like having them on in the background while I’m cleaning my office or writing lists or trying to find old Reese’s Pieces ads from the back pages of 1980s comic books.

Below are 3 SNES playthroughs. Enjoy them however you see fit.


STONE PROTECTORS


FAMILY FEUD


PAC-MAN 2

PS: I’ve never played any of these games. Partly why I picked ’em!

Poison Ivy!

I’ve gotten some excellent After Dark video suggestions to carry us through Cruel Summer, including this one, from Ginyu Recoome:

Poison Ivy is a made-for-television movie from 1985. This is the original broadcast from February of that year, complete with a ton of ancient commercials.

The film stars Michael J. Fox and Nancy McKeon (YES!) as a pair of teenage camp counselors. I’m not sure that I’d ever even heard of it before tonight, but between the cast and the promise of old Coke commercials, count me in!

Slash & Burn!

Ooh, this sounds promising. Get set for Slash & Burn, a 1991 documentary about the Nightmare on Elm Street series.

I haven’t watched a drop of it yet, but I’m sure it’s worth it if you’re into Freddy!

PS: What IS your favorite Elm Street movie? Tell us, in the comments!

The Grand Opening of Disney World!

The Grand Opening of Disney World aired in 1971 as part of The Wonderful World of Disney. (I guess the title explains what it’s about well enough on its own, huh?)

It’s always a trip to see the park in its “original” form — and to notice all of the parts that haven’t changed much through the years.
