Jog on the joys of mom-and-pop video shop horror sections

On the off chance that you’re not familiar with him already, Jog of the aptly named Jog the Blog is one of the two best comics bloggers on the Internet. But it’s always fun to read him on other topics as well, and today he’s posted on something close to my heart: that splendidly lurid and increasingly scarce phenomenon known as the horror-video section in a mom-and-pop video rental outlet. You might recall that I mentioned my retroactive fondness for the spectacularly grotesque VHS boxes and posters of those bygone moneymakers recently, so I was thrilled to read Jog’s story of what amounted to walking through a time warp into 1988. I think you will too.
