Wizards & Warriors
- In one scene, in a stone room in a castle, there was someone telling a story about how he used to tie up his younger brother with a rope and dangle him upside down until he passed out.
- Another scene, there was someone trapped in a room. The ceiling had spikes pointing down and it was slowing descending and he had to try and escape before he got skewered (kind of like that scene in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom).
Back then, nothing was streaming, and the show wasn't available to watch or purchase anywhere, so i had no way to watch. However, on the website I found a forum post from a guy who said he had recorded the episodes onto VHS when it originally aired, and he would make a copy to anyone who sent him some VHS tapes. His price? two blank tapes - one for him to keep, one to record and send back. Figuring i had nothing to lose, i mailed him some a couple of blank VHS tapes and waited. A few weeks later, my tapes came back - with a copy of all 8 episodes of the show!!
The quality was horrible, but i didn't care. i got to watch one of my childhood shows again!
Let's fast-forward several years. VHS has gone away, and my last VHS player is on the fritz. I'm trying to figure out how to preserve my copy of the show, because i still can't buy it anywhere. But i manage to get my VHS output to go into the input of my home video camera, and i record a copy of the show onto some of those old home video tapes.
