not JUST fun and games

the 90s was all about positivity. the zeitgeist was clear, from Ultra Nate to Rozalla, Sonique to A Tribe Called Quest: we're all free to express ourselves, to do what we want to do, to feel good, and generally love ourselves and each other. how nice. just throw pills into the mix and you've got a generation of people wearing waistcoats and fisherman hats, tie-dye and spandex; telling strangers how much they love them and generally doing some seriously sweet dancing.


alas, it wasn't all like that. on the otherside of the spectrum we have fear. OH so much fear. 

who knows, maybe the Teenage Ninja Mutant Turtles are teaching your kids black magic? maybe that shifty kid with the ripped jeans and long hair's been selling little Jimmy psychedelic heroin? after all, its the 90s - anything's possible, isn't it? 

so, a brief celebration of 90s FEAR videos. remember, it's not just fun and games.



strange, though. so much fear, and no-one found these bearded suits hanging around toyshops worrying?



its all pretty Swayze from Donnie Darko. i mean, the guy with the tash and mullet's not suspicious at all. though he did remind me of someone.
