Have you ever tried hooking up through a VHS dating service? Did such services actually exist back in the heyday of VHS? You can admit it, if you know. There’s no shame in it — as long as you “be kind, rewind.” Here in Episode 172 of Horror Movie Weekly, Jay of the Dead and Mister Watson bring you a Feature Review of Rent-A-Pal (2020) — a remarkable little film that does eventually deliver the Horror goods. Your beloved hosts also bring you Micro Horror Movie Reviews of “Sam Was Here” (2017) and “Shrooms” (2007). Join us!
