Viddy Well

This is meant to be a site where I can keep an up-to-date catalog of the films I have seen and collected, and chronicle some thoughts about them, and other tangential minutia.
Enjoin.

MEDIA Home Entertainment

I have a particular fondness and fascination with the MEDIA Home Entertainment label. I believe it is a mark of quality in VHS distribution. Every MEDIA title that I have seen, and I have seen many, has contained something worthwhile of strange radicalness. Other companies like Vestron, Cannon, Embassy, Trans World Entertainment, New World, Lightning, and Paragon put out many great titles as well, but I hope to eventually collect the entire MEDIA VHS catalog. http://www.imdb.com/company/co0057219/
