Noel Mellor like many of us grew up addicted to VHS movies, including the box art. It\u2019s all so nostalgic and fortunately for us, Noel is working hard at a new book titled Adventures in VHS<\/em>.\u00a0 It\u2019s bound to be incredible, especially since Noel has interviewed many 80s filmmakers that will be included in the book.\u00a0 Noel was extremely kind to share more information about his book project, what you can expect to find inside, and how you can get involved.<\/p>\n

Five Quick Questions with Noel Mellor<\/strong><\/p>\n

Can you share a little about yourself and your Adventures in VHS<\/em> book you\u2019re currently working on?
\nNOEL: Sure, I\u2019m Noel and I\u2019m an alcoholic. But when I\u2019m not busy drinking myself into oblivion, I\u2019m probably watching some fuzzy presentation of a forgotten 80s movie in the comfort of my spare room \u2013 which has been decked out with a 21-inch tube TV, VCR and hundreds of old big-box, ex-rental video tapes for the Adventures in VHS project.<\/strong>
\nAdventures in VHS started life as a series of blog posts where I took a look at some of the straight-to-video titles that helped shape my love of cult film, but it very quickly took on a life of its own. I decided I wanted to do more with it, so it became a podcast and eventually a book \u2013 which is now ready to share with the (hopefully) many like-minded souls out there for whom Brian Yuzna is a more tempting option than Bryan Singer.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With so many 80s fans out there, how can they get involved with the book?
\nNOEL: Well, as I say, the book is now ready to share, but I really need people to support it. If you head to my page on Unbound, you\u2019ll see a video and synopsis that tells you all about the book, then down the right hand side there are a number of options. You can either pick up the e-book, the hardcover, or one of the special edition versions that come with things like limited edition, numbered Adventures in VHS membership cards and even copies of the tapes covered in the book itself.
