In Stand By Me, four boys set out on a wild adventure to find a dead body. But would YOU have gone looking? 🤔 In this VHS Club clip, we debate whether kids (and maybe curious adults 👀) would actually go on a body-hunting adventure — and share some true stories about how fascinated we all were with the morbid side of childhood.

Why Were the Leeches SO HUGE?! 😂 | Stand By Me

The Stand By Me leech scene lives rent-free in our brains — but seriously, who approved leeches that BIG?! 🪱🤣 In this VHS Club clip, we break down the absurd size of those swamp monsters, compare them to the tiny baby leeches we’ve seen in real life, and laugh (while cringing) at one of the weirdest scenes in 80s movie history.

Trojan Bunny Fail 🐰🤣 Funniest Monty Python Insults | Holy Grail

“Your mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberries!” Monty Python’s insults are legendary — and the Trojan bunny might be their funniest epic fail. In this VHS Club clip, we revisit the French Taunter’s savage burns, the ridiculous bunny scheme, and the insane joke-per-second ratio that makes Monty Python and the Holy Grail one of the funniest comedies ever made.

The Sandlot Stand out soundtrack! Any movie set in the 1960s is lucky for its choice in music!    Cute little bonding idea, teaching the stepson to play catch. Doesn't seem like he'll follow through    I'm having flashbacks …
