I recently watched Sleepaway Camp 1 and 2 on Tubi and am currently watching Outer Limits and GI Joe on it. But whenever I look through the content it makes me think whoever came up with Tubi must have been a manager of a video rental store who has a basement full of VHS. I’m amazed at how many straight to video/dvds came out b from the 80s to early 00s. So many I’ve never heard of but in the 80s as a kid I wasn’t aware of a lot of stuff I wasn’t allowed to watch but I remember sneaking out past bedtime to watch Porkys or watching Revenge of the Nerds with my older brother when I was 6.
I do remember watching some 80s b movie on Tubi a while back and giving it high marks because the men were masculine and the women were feminine.
Also made me glad to see Chuck Norris movies were the one of the most streamed content this past week.
Just for fun I looked up what current year “nerd sites” had to say about Sleepaway Camp and to no surprise they said it is problematic and “didn’t age well” which is a phrase I hate because it’s always some idiot critic that finds offense in everything saying that
I've honestly seen a lot of content that didn't age well.
Sorry (not sorry 😉) if that offends you, eh?
Some media just loses appeal over time. What was new and innovative (thus appealing) in the 70's might look like dreck today.
The great ones don't lose power over the ages. Beowulf, The Canterbury Tales & many others are still as riveting as when they were written.
Most of PK Dick's writings still resonate some 60+ years alter. Which is why so many have been made into movies & TV series! With two of his absolute best works "yet to come" (in development hell).
Ubik! Perfectly safe when used EXACTLY as directed! 😲
Valis Which is far better than it seems to be on first glance. It's deep!
Read Valis Here! or almost all of his works, or free! He really is one of the greatest. He wrote for the "common man" and his honesty shines through his words.
I love PKD books and get your point but a lot of those people use the term because they find the movie offensive to a modern woke audience. I get things can be dated but I am pretty retro so I like that lol. I guess I should have said I find that term annoying when they say it because it offends the woke crowd.
