The Video Home System (better known by its abbreviation VHS) is a consumer-level analog recording videotape-based cassette standard developed by Victor Company of Japan (JVC).

The 1970s was a period when video recording became a major contributor to the television industry. Like many other technological innovations, each of several companies made an attempt to produce a television recording standard that the majority of the world would embrace. At the peak of it all, the home video industry was caught up in a series of videotape format wars. Two of the formats, VHS and Betamax, received the most media exposure. VHS would eventually win the war, and therefore succeed as the dominant home video format, lasting throughout the tape format period.

In later years, optical disc formats began to offer better quality than video tape. The earliest of these formats, Laserdisc, was not widely adopted, but the subsequent DVD format eventually did achieve mass acceptance and replaced VHS as the preferred method of distribution after 2000. By 2006, film studios in the United States had stopped releasing new movie titles in VHS format. On December 31, 2008, the last major United States supplier of pre-recorded VHS tapes, Distribution Video Audio Inc. of Palm Harbor, Florida, shipped its final truckload. As of 2010, most of the VHS tapes being produced are 6 and 8 hour blank tapes.

Plot: A steamy, raunchy, horror/comedy, in the style of a classic, campy, strait to video, 1980s horror movie. The film tells the story of a three hundred year old, Hungarian vampire/succubus disguised as a female high school teacher. The teacher seduces all of her small-minded popular students, and then possesses them to kidnap all the school sluts with the intention of draining and drinking their blood, in order to retain her erotic beauty. The only people that can stop her rain of terror are three social outcasts, and a psychotic janitor. "Sadistic Eroticism" is full of hilarious, politically incorrect, and edgy humor, as well as steamy sex and slap stick violence.

    Eat The Rich

    I've been down, I've been beat
    I've been tossed into the street
    Making nickels, begging dimes
    Just to get my bottle of wine
    Some say Life, she's a lady
    Kind of soft, kind of shady
    I can't tell you Life is rich
    She's no lady, she's a bitch
    They suck my body out
    But then there is no doubt
    Gonna pay the devil his dues
    Cause I'm so sick of being abused
    Eat the rich, eat the rich
    Don't you know life is a bitch
    Eat the rich, eat the rich
    Out of the palace and into the ditch
    Steal my money, steal my car
    Took my woman and an old guitar
    Running crazy, running wild
    ?? in my eye
    Just can't fight the temptation
    It's become my inspiration
    Gonna get myself an axe
    Break some heads and break some backs
    They suck my body out
    But then there is no doubt
    Gonna pay the devil his dues
    Cause I'm so sick of being abused
    Eat the rich, eat the rich
    Don't you know life is a bitch
    Eat the rich, eat the rich
    Out of the palace and into the ditch
    Don't stop me
    Eat the rich, eat the rich
    Don't you know life is a bitch
    Eat the rich, eat the rich
    Out of the palace and into the ditch
    Eat the rich, eat the rich
    Don't you know life is a bitch
    Eat the rich, eat the rich
    Out of the palace and into the ditch
    Out of the palace and into the ditch
