Win New York Ripper!

My first real horror experience was when I was about ten, going into the local video store (Mr. Video!) and seeing all these GARISH and FRIGHTENING looking video covers - particularly the Intervision releases...

Covers I remember that scared the crap out of me were CATACLYSM, the Intervision release of CARRIE, INVASION OF THE BLOOD FARMERS, CATHY'S CURSE and SHIVERS...

I finally talked my older sister into letting me rent out SHIVERS and MEAN STREETS and my Mum went mental when she a) saw the opening 'acid in the schoolgirl's stomach' scene from SHIVERS and b) heard Harvey Keitel use the 'c' word in MEAN STREETS...

Needless to say, it was fair while until I was allowed to choose my own films on a Sunday...
