10 Amazing VHS Era Villain Actors

August 8, 2020 by Red Stewart

Marvelous Videos presents ten amazing villain actors from the VHS era…

One of the joys that zoomers will never understand is the VHS. Kids these days are so “spoiled” with DVDs and Blu-rays, and 4K resolution that they have missed out on an entire video storage format that dominated the world from the 70s till the late-90s. These babies could get grainy, easily-ruined, and frequently cracked up on resolution if you didn’t record things correctly. And if you tried to rewind it, you better hope you do it correctly lest the tape get tangled and rendered unwatchable.

Jokes aside, the VHS era also served as a place of great villainous acting. From action movies to sci-fi flicks, our friends at Marvelous Videos have compiled a list of ten such actors who set the standard for what it means to be an antagonist.
