My uncle said to always check the last five minutes of a thrift store VHS. Found a full wedding from 1992 and a weird 3-minute clip of someone just staring at a wall.

Found a workout tape with a hidden porno once, lmao.

That's the best kind of thrift store treasure hunt right there. Those weird personal clips are way more interesting than any movie. Makes you wonder about the person staring at the wall, like what was going through their head. Honestly, those forgotten bits feel more real than the stuff that was meant to be saved.

Honestly, that line about "the random clip of someone staring at a wall" got me. My buddy found a tape at a garage sale that was just 45 minutes of a kid's birthday party from 1993. But the weird part was after the cake, the camera just stayed on a closed closet door for like 10 minutes. No one ever opened it, no audio, just a dusty wooden door. Creeped us out more than any horror movie could.
