The BETA format is (well.... was) the best video tape format ever to be marketed. Sony ceased manufacturing consumer BETA recorder-players for the American market in 1993 and completely ceased production of Betamax machines in 2002. My ancient 15 year old Sony SLHF-900 finally crapped out in early 2000 which is really messed up because I liked my Betamax! Reluctantly, I've decided to say bon voyage to my Beta collection. So, if you are a Beta-phile and are looking for pre-recorded video tapes (amongst other things) in this format -- READ ON! |

OFF BEAT 1986 Judge Reinhold Meg Tilly Joe Gower (Reinhold) works in the library (on roller skates!?) Adding complication to his otherwise bookish life, Gower agrees to pose as a police officer and participate in a charity dance. He falls for a female officer in the show and gets into various scrapes with fellow cops and also crooks. |
![]() OXFORD BLUES 1984 Rob Lowe Alley Sheedy Amanda Pays Lowe is the fish-out-of-water at Oxford where he gets the hots for royalty (Amanda Pays) and ends up with Alley Sheedy. Hey, unfair! |
![]() PARTY ANIMAL 1983 More "Animal House" hyjinks on campus. A pizza and beer movie. |
![]() PROTOCAL 1984 Goldie Hawn Chris Sarandon Goldie Hawn really can act and she is very good at playing a ditz, even a fairly smart ditz. Small town transplant ends up the toast of the diplomatic corps and becomes a pawn in a sneaky political ploy. Yes, it's a comedy. Better than it sounds. I also recommend seeing Hawn's recent film titled "The Banger Sisters." SOLD No Longer Available |
![]() RECKLESS 1984 Aidan Quinn Darryl Hannah Aidan Quinn plays the troubled James Dean part and he's not bad. Trapped in a dirty ugly steel town, he only wants out. He finds his love interest in an equally moody Darryl Hannah. |
![]() RED BLOODED AMERICAN GIRL 1990 Andrew Stevens Heather Thomas What a terrific movie this would have been had it a better budget and a better script. As it is, the idea's not bad. This biotech company is doing some very illegal experiments on human subjects and genius Andrew Stevens is brought in to bail them out of trouble. It seems this serum they came up with turns people into vampires but their blood lust only makes them consume themselves. Heather Thomas shows her body off very well as one of the victims that Stevens is trying to save. SOLD No Longer Available |
SAY YES! 1986 Jonathan Winters Funnyman Jonathan Winters adds his name to this b-movie comedy. |
![]() SECRET ADMIRER 1985 C. Thomas Howell Kelly Preston Slightly above average teen comedy. |
![]() SHERLOCK HOLMES: WOMAN IN GREEN 1945 Basil Rathbone Nigel Bruce Sherlock Holmes classic starring the razor sharp Basil Rathbone and, as Watson, the lovable teddy bear, Nigel Bruce. |
SLEUTH 1972 Lawrence Olivier Michael Caine Another play that became a feature film -- and a pretty good one too. |
SO FINE 1981 Ryan O'Neal Jack Warden Will anyone ever remember this gem from 1981? If you remember the butt hugging jeans fad on TV, then this movie will put a smile on your face. |
![]() SOME KIND OF WONDERFUL 1987 Eric Stoltz Mary Stuart Masterson Lea Thompson Better-than-average teen angst movie about a boy (Stoltz) from the other side of the tracks (literally) who has a hot streak for a rich girl (Thompson) not noticing his closest female friend (Masterson) has an awful crush on him already. SOLD No Longer Available |
