Time to torture internet movie person Oliver Harper with some awful movies from my late uncle's video collection! Hey, Oliver picked them...

Obviously this was filmed some time before the COVID-19 virus hit, and it'll be a while before we can do another as a result. (This won't be the only collab for a while though - I have a video with Paul Gannon in the bag.)

Weird VHS Movies with Oliver Harper | Ashens

Oliver lives here: https://www.youtube.com/user/ollyh82 Ashens Patreon lives here: https://www.patreon.com/ashens It's movie time, specifically movies from my late Uncle Derek's VHS collection!* And Oliver kindly joined me, and even more kindly picked a couple of really bad ones to watch so I didn't have to! We look at The Roller Blade Seven, The Warrior (AKA Jaka Sembung), The Norseman and Beauty of the Barbarian (AKA Battle of the Amazons... kind of.) And... three of them are awful, but one is kind of great. Months after filming this I found out that Beauty of the Barbarian was released in Hong Kong as "Karate Amazons", which is one of the greatest and totally misleading titles ever. *The more interesting ones. He had a lot of mainstream stuff and wrestling videos too.

Fun fact: VHS colloquially stands for Video Home System, but actually it originally stood for Vertical Helical Scanning, due to the slanted pattern of its write head system.

I am surprised neither of you made a comment about the guy about to smash The Warrior in the balls with nunchaku.

I know! Hence the "vertical helix", as opposed to the horizontal helix, which would be slanted nearly flushly horizontal along the tape. Edit: Alas I have been bamboozled!

Tiny-man-nunchaku-groin-attacks are such a common occurance in Norwich that we didn't really register it.

The Parallel Viewmaster

I don't know how well known it is in the UK, but Newfoundland is a province in Canada(well, the province is called 'Newfoundland and Labrador', where Newfoundland is the island and Labrador is the mainland). It is the only confirmed Viking site in North America. It is also doesn't look anything like the clips you showed, as it is almost entirely composed of rocks, short shrub-like trees, and more rocks. Any natives dressed like that would be dead from exposure in a week. By referring to a real place in an effort to make the film more realistic, the producers made it look even more fake.
