Not sure what this means... you mean movies? Why VHS, particularly?

    I was scared to DEATH of E.T. He creeped me out like nothing else.
    My YouTube Channel (commercials from the late 80s/early 90s):

      "Animal Antics", because the Simitar Logo and red "clock" font at the beginning were scary enough, and then the Spider that appeared around the beginning of the actual content was enough to have me run off crying and hide in a closet until that particular segment was over...

        I used to turn down the volume and go get a snack until the FHE logo was over on some holiday tapes. On the same ones I used to try and stop it before the Rankin Bass logo came on. Also, the white screen of death is the main reason why I never fall asleep watching a video anymore, even if it's a DVD.
        Recipe for nostalgia: Mix 80's and 90's culture. Stir in some good memories. Add a dash of reflection. Mixture should now taste bittersweet. Shake well and enjoy!

          1986 Walt Disney Home Video! It's too dark and hellish!

          There's already a thread of this anyway, but I can't find it.

              Tums commercials used to scare me "TUM TA TUM TUM TUMMMMM" and the old old commercial for the "viper" car alarm or whatever.

              For some reason the Sledgehammer theme used to scare me as well. Unsolved Mysteries and Are You Afraid Of The Dark theme songs both creeped me out.

                    I once shat myself at the sight of the Orion logo.
