Wow, I adore that Friday the 13th one. The Superman Returns one is quite cool as well (even though I thought that movie was an hour too long).
I worked at a video store in my late teens and early 20's and this Predator 2 VHS cover always caught my eye. It works so well - especially considering how mediocre that movie is. I've always wanted a poster of it but I don't think they make it in poster form.
There's a book I picked up off Amazon not too long ago called
Portable Grindhouse: The Lost Art of the VHS Box which brought back so many great memories of browsing through the video rental store as a kid. It's all just nostalgia, but I miss those crappy VHS covers, the crappy VHS tapes with totally blown out colors and borderline-unwatchable dark/indoor scenes. As much as I love BD, every once in a while I have a hankering to watch a VHS of Street Trash or Intruder with the lights out and a big 'ole bucket of popcorn.
