Rewind This! is fun and light. It definitely has an Austin, TX vibe to it. I think they could have gone deeper into the history of VHS rather than collectors and random side stories. There is a surprise Erotic VHS side that focuses on how porn helped drive the platform. Not a bad rental but honestly far from perfect ot balanced.
