My dad’s old job had him travel to China regularly, and he amassed a large collection of bootlegs in the process. When he first started bringing them home, they were a real crapshoot. Look at this cover:

Obviously that’s Robocop front and center, and I believe those are the titular Starship Troopers preparing to fire on Officer Alex Murphy. But what movie’s actually on this five inch “Laserdisc” (actually two VCDs)?

FILM: Lost in Space
FORMAT: 2x VCD
QUALITY: Looks like it was ripped off a VHS copy
SUBTITLES: Hard-coded Chinese
FEATURES: Zero
DID I ACTUALLY WATCH THIS?: Not a chance

There’s not a lot else to say about Lost in Space; it’s only interesting as a starting point of my family’s history with Chinese VCDs/DVDs. I wish it was actually Robocop.
