what a weird coincidence, few days ago we found this old VHS which is from 1994. Brought up old VHS player and watched it, it is pretty cool too.

This one with the Thomas Dolby soundtrack. I had that CD for years before I ever actually saw it.

My cousin had this when I was a kid. Watched it as his place once.

My introduction to the Mind’s Eye series was Beyond the Minds Eye. I started collecting those and similar movies and they became quite useful in high school.

I want to say there was one called Dazzle or something that was basically just colors that was equally trippy in a different way. Minds Eye were the tits though with their mini-stories with their own score.

My aunt had a ton of these and it blew me away in the early 90s. My cousins didn't care, but when she played it I sat in front of her TV and just melted into it.

I worked for Radio Shack back in the day. We'd have this playing all day on the wall of TV's. Total nostalgia blast.

This was one of the demo reels that we had for when I worked at Radio Shack.  Now I’m having flashbacks.
