Alien. My mom covered my eyes HALF the time during the showing. I left PISSED as I didn't know WTF happened.
LOL I remember watching Alien back in the day. I thought it was a blast.

My dad back in the 80's would rent a VCR from the gas station...
We rented 'em from the grocery store.I'm not sure how popular it was to rent a VCR at a gas station, but it was back in the 80's in North Dakota where I lived.
We were pretty damn poor back then.

Real poverty is having no values. A family having less money to go 'round than some others is just a temporary state of affairs on the way to better things. This calls to mind the pride and defiant self-reliance inherent in the Depression Era song, Ragged But Right.
Erm, ok, nope. RTFT.Madman that is another blast from the past.
Erm ok,wrong thread?
one evening when i was 5, a bad storm was headed towards us.
while my parents were watching the news on the big TV, i was in another room on the little black and white TV switching through channels trying to find the weather.
"wait, what's this - channel 13? we never get that channel... must be the storm!"
and that is how 5 year old me ended up watching wayyy too much of "Dark Night of the Scarecrow"
a couple of the scenes are permanently etched in my memory, never to be forgotten no matter how hard i try.
