Title: Did anyone have a problem with the VHS?
Post by: Smoky on May 06, 2007, 04:44:14 PM
I rented this on VHS and found that there was more riffing than there was movie. Is the riffing for some extended version?

I believe so.  The DVD version (I think the only one out there, in fact) is the Director's Cut, which I presume would be longer.

sucks about the VHS not working for this one, good luck finding the DVD its one of the better ones, so you'd really be missing out if you decide to skip it.

So you actually have a store that rents VHS in your town? thats pretty cool, reminds me of a grocery store in my area that was renting NES games until recently.

Yep, Hollywood video still rents some VHS tapes. I would have gotten the DVD but the VHS was all they had. Guess I should have read the description
of the Rifftrax more closely. It's not that big a deal though, I managed to watch it, just had to figure out when the riffing went with the scenes.

Honestly, if you can find it used at your local rental, you'll pay less than it costs to rent it. :^)

You mean buying it? Not really, cus it was only 2 bucks to rent at Hollywood.

Besides, I don't really wanna *own* it...   :speechless:
