Woolworth’s in 1991!
Just for the record, I haven’t given up on Dino Drac After Dark, and won’t! I’m very much looking forward to updating this place on the reg again. The rest of January is looking pretty annoying, so don’t be too discouraged if I miss days here and there. By February, we should be back at full speed!
Tonight’s video was sent in by Ryan S., and it’s a doozy. Someone shot footage inside a Woolworth’s discount store back in 1991, and they lingered in the toy section jussst long enough for solid looks at everything from Real Ghostbusters to Ninja Turtles. Love it!
Late Night 1988 Commercials!
Here are a bunch of commercials that ran on CBS back in 1988, during a late night broadcast of An American Werewolf in London:
You can consider this a generalized chat thread, too. Happy Saturday!
November 1992 Commercials!
Here are a bunch of random TV commercials that aired back in November of ’92:
The key thing is that they all aired on WPIX. That was MY STATION, guys. I lived on it as a kid, and yes, that would include 1992. Stuffed with cartoons and sitcom reruns and ’80s movies and late night spooks, I’m fond of calling WPIX my “childhood best friend.”
Bloody New Year!
Happy 2018, all!
Here’s Bloody New Year, a horror movie from 1987. Most of you haven’t seen it, but you might be familiar with its famous VHS box art, which featured some kind of skeletal zombie blowing a party horn.
Bloody New Year comes off like a blend of April Fool’s Day and The Shining. It was roughly produced and it doesn’t always make sense, but it’s worth leaving on in the background while you putz around with other things. Just look up whenever you hear a snarl or a scream.
