July 2025 Varrow Log

We have decided that we need to start a Varrow log of the movies we watch when we get together. Here’s the list for July 2025:

-Satan’s Blade - new viewing. See below for details on the special surprise guest at our gathering. 

-War Cat - new viewing

-Survival Zone

-Ghost Keeper - finished!

-Monster High (the 1989 one about aliens)

-Grave Encounters - new viewing

-Android

-Ambush - new viewing

-Contagion (the 1997 Australian one)

-The Varrow Mission - standard 2 minutes

Thanks to DM hunting down not only the newest Varrow VHS addition, Satan’s Blade, but also the main actor from the movie, Tom Bongiorno, we had our first ever Zoom meetup with someone from one the movies we we watched.

The Varrow Mission - New Copy

After 10+ years of searching, a second copy of The Varrow Mission has been acquired! It’s the PAL version from Spain, with this alternate cover:

Latest Haul

 The Varrow suitcase has been topped up with a haul of new VHS!

Varrow Returns

It has been a few years since the last Varrow (2017) and apparently a lot longer since the last blog post (2009?!?), but an official meeting has happened again. The red suitcase made its appearance, filled with VHS treasures.

No one can explain the mysterious appearance of Scream of the Wolf, which was too cursed to play. 

Two movies were finished: The Forest and Doomsday Plot. 

Two new movies were started: Ghostkeeper and Spookies.  

Progress was made on a few other movies and Neil Breen trailers were watched. 

The meeting concluded with 2 minutes of The Varrow Mission, starting from the very beginning again. Good things are worth repeating.

Bill Rebane's The Game

And we can finish this puppy off!

And then we can draft a friendly thank-you to the man himself and send it here.
