Before streaming, blu-ray, and DVD, most LVC films were only available on home video cassette tapes, usually VHS (but also Betamax). Many of us discovered these films for the first time in these formats (usually cropped and edited).Often times due to rights issues, these films were given new titles (some similar to the original, some not). Often the cover image of LVC was not from the actual film!
Here is a look back at the old VHS LVC video covers for Nowhere to Hide!
Remember watching this when it aired new on TV. Pilot for a proposed TV series that didn't make it. Russell Johnson (the professor on Gilligan's Island) was to be Lee's boss. I just saw Russell and Lee as henchmen partners on an episode of Laramie.
