Comedy VHS

Although most classic 1980s comedies have been translated into DVD versions, some fans prefer watching their favorite 1980s movies on VHS. Consider Animal House, an early-1980s classic starring Jim Belushi.

Another popular early '80s comedy VHS selection is Airplane. This movie, which created humor through broad puns and ironic juxtapositions, set the bar for 1980s comedies. Other hit 1980s comedy VHS choices include Monty Python's The Life of Brian and The Holy Grail.

In 1984, Bill Murray, Dan Akroyd, and Harold Ramis teamed up to create the hit Ghostbusters. This movie follows the adventures of three Columbia University psych researchers and their quest to rid New York City of poltergeists. Comedy VHS tapes of movies from the beginning of the movie age to the 21st century can be found on halfvalue.
