It has been a while since we have had any communications here at the Abandoned Video Shop, but we had a major problem. One of our walls started to bow ( the shop is seriously showing its age ) sending our complete Emilio Estevez collection crashing down. Sadly Old Reg was having a snidey fag and was buried beneath thousands of copies of Maximum Overdrive, Wisdom, Men At Work and Young Guns II. I told him smoking could harm his health, but he never listened.We were naturally very concerned, being trapped under that many bad films can cause all sorts of damage and Old Reg is, as his name gives away, old. Me and the two Saturday help twins Leslie and Lesley shovelled away The Breakfast Club and St Elmo's Fire by the score and all the time we could hear Old Reg's groans. Much like the groans he let out when he watched Wisdom.
It took many hours but we finally pulled him out battered and bloody.
"Emilio Estevez came to me dressed as a bleedin' angel," Old Reg said as we dragged him out feet first. "He saved me bleedin' life."
We didn't really have the heart to tell Old Reg he had just been in an Emilio Estevez landslide. So we let him go on thinking he has a saviour who was in Repo Man.
The Owner.
