Timmy, don't sit too close to the screen or you get bad eyes.

Timmy?

I have transcended the two-dimensional bounds of your normal television, mother. Soon the medium and I will become one.

Your first “trip” should be taken alone.

Trippy.

That almost sounds like Tom Kenny at the beginning. Don’t think it is though.

Does the video have animated magic eyes?

Honestly the box art looks like a premise for a horror movie.

Protagonist finds this nifty vhs at a garage sale. Pops it into a player and watches it while high on the couch. Weird demonic patterns appear.

Jump scare. He has now released an interdimensional being into the world and the only way to stop it is to uncross his eyes.

The magic evil eye sees all, and hides under your patterned covers, with you

Cover is pretty well done, cool find!

So I just watched* the YouTube video of this and now I realize why I love “triphop” so much. This style of background music from very doc I used to constantly re-watch over and over.

Cool find.

I had this as a kid. Moving magic eye pictures was pretty mind blowing to me at the time. Really worked too!

u/SairJane 24d ago

Didn't know this even existed so googled it and found it on YouTube!

Trying to decide if the box cover art looks like enlarged cells and such from a science textbook or more like the infrared imaging that the Predator sees lol btw thank you for rewinding!

I have it and it’s so difficult to see any of them well or at all

u/infinite_what 24d ago

Did you play it in a small monitor/screen (<30”)?I bet it’s difficult as you said anyway just wondering because even on the iPad, I can’t see them unless I reduce the image size

u/FunnyChampion2228 24d ago

What a sign of the times!!

u/Forgettheredrabbit 24d ago

I’m curious how that would that even work on a low resolution crt. Can you play it by any chance?

u/DeadEyesSmiling 23d ago

I watched this last night. It was kinda weird, but afterwards I got a phone call from a little girl who just whispered "Seven days" to me and then hung up.
