What the hell is that you say? A really old cable tv station or cable box called WHT, It was actually a rival to HBO in the late 70's early 80's. I happened to snag one when i was about 11 by a neighbour who was leaving the country, I couldn't fathom the possibility of whole movies being played on your tv without commercials, It was a dream come true. Aside from the usual fare of 70's/80's flicks being on constant rotation, There was a series called Nightcap, It showed hairy bush, no genital or penetration porn, Always after 11 p.m, far late for the kiddies to watch, (don't ask how i know this). It also showed obscure movies during the day that were very strange, I could never shake off the weird ones i've seen growing up, the cable station was eventually cancelled in 1988, I always wondered what would be the possibilities of seeing any of these shows again, After digging around i've found a few movies i still remember. My viewing experience could be summed up to a really early version of MTV's Liquid Television, Which i became an instant fan of when it aired in the 90's.
1. Sally cruikshank's Quasi at the quackadero
Hard to explain this one, it's a cartoon that i never forgot about, I actually managed to get a dvd copy of her work thru her website, If you've seen any of her cartoon shorts you'd know that it's trippy. I knew that i'd find it someday. Thank you internet
