Earlier in the year I found a cardboard box housed copy of The Matrix. The tape was still shrink wrapped inside and unplayed. I regret not buying that now. Not too watch but just stick on a shelf. The cover art was really nice.

I know that physical releases are having a moment, but a VHS? Really? That’s one format I’m happy to leave in my childhood.

That VHS could be blank and I doubt anyone would ever know!

My friend and I did have to bring together my keyboard and his power pack but the main hassle was finding a tape player.
