Make sure you log what's on it so that future generations won't find the tape and have to track down the last mini DV player on Earth.

My bet is it's either innocuous or something one of the family members wanted hidden from the others and were never able to retrieve (whether that's porn, stalking, a diary, or a one man musical they performed about Garfield).

You kinda have to watch it now. You might regret it later if it's something truly terrible, but it might also lead to the person paying for their actions.

A few months back, I heard a story from somewhere about a man who killed a couple women and put their bodies in oil drums in his basement. He finished the basement and I guess he built around them, the next owners of the house never noticed, but the owners after that remodeled the basement, found the containers, and the dude finally went to prison for his crimes.

I was about to say "I don't think it's something bad, because if it was they would have remembered to take it with them" but this story also reminded me of a bunch of other stories. Like if you forget bodies you're not gonna care about tapes.

OP, it's a home made porno.

It is now your duty to watch it in it's entirety and report back to us. Watching the thread.

Who wants to start another poll as to if we'll know what's on the tape? Aren't players for this thing rare?

If it is a porno, you gotta make one and place it somewhere in the same room for the next owners to find. It's the only way, erm, to break the curse. Or something.

Let us know how it goes.

It's going to have 3 hours 30 minutes of recorded static even though it's a 60 min tape.

Realistically? It's probably a random tape that fell in there during a renovation or construction. People had tons of these tapes stacked up.

Maybe...maybe it's something more.

Or it's OP filmed by a stranger. First he's filmed from a distant place doing random stuff outside his house, then he is filmed trough a window. The tape ends with the stranger breaking in at night walking to the bedroom and filming OP while he sleeps.
I love Lost Highway. That scene is so creepy.

I can imagine it's the previous residents 2 hour video essay on why Star Wars Episode 8 is the best Star Wars movie and Ryan Johnson is a hero

Let's hope it's something twisted and not some boring guy videotaping himself jerking off in the mirror.

Its now your duty to skim through the whole tape. It may start out as one mundane or even shocking thing, but then become something else later.

I'm going to be so disappointed when it's just a regular home video and not some Lynchian descent into nightmare.
