These were a type of keeper that was actually part of the purchase of the tape. There were no security features, other than they made the cassette a much larger item that could not be taken from the store so easily, as you mentioned.<br><br>Vaporman87Oct 08, 2014View

12179Halloween Article Contest 2014i probably haven't mentioned it before, but during my days on retrojunk i always felt that it grew tiresome as i saw people writing about movies that have been listed by every other article writer, so these days i've felt that i need to look into some of the more 'out there' movies that you'd have luck finding at a vhs rental. i say it was a preparation because earlier this year i had the help of an old friend from deviantart and retrojunk that had shown me some movies every once in a while while chatting on facebook. i've given a handful of them a watch already, but hopefully i won't spoil a lot of what's to offer in each one<br>BenjanimeOct 08, 2014View
