Oh the good old days of VHS. Who can possibly forget that lavish and irresistible artwork of those tapes on the rental shelves – the outrageous and incredulous promises of things to come. Home video changed the world. For the first time consumers were no longer at the mercy of their local theatre or television station, the power to discover cinema was in their hands. Josh Johnson’s documentary expertly tells the story of the rise and fall of the VHS format and how it completely revolutionized the entire film industry. Like Not Quite Hollywood (2008) and Machete Maidens Unleashed! (2010) before it, Rewind This! will wet your appetite for rare and shockproof films, leaving you hoping that there's more where this came from!
