    Ah, to be young again. Soylent Green was a sci-fi movie from the 1960s that revolved around a future dystopia with shortages of food. Soylent Green was the most sought after food. Phere people were forced to suicide by society at a certain age (think Asimov's "The Sixty" or Running Man, same meme) to keep the population down. I have the tape, but alas my VCR died quite a while ago. I wonder where I can get a new one?

    At the end of the movie it's revealed that soylent green is people.

    I don't know where you are, but if you can, try WalMart. Some of them still have tape-to-and-from-DVD player/recorders available.

      Thrift stores! You can get really great VHS machines at thrift stores for under $10.

    I hear it's available on DVD and Blu-ray these days, or if your a Prime member just stream it for free.
