Raise your hand if you were brought here by "Rent-A-Pal"...

Hi friends! This is "Sam" a.k.a. Ben Hollis. Thanks to Davey at Found and Nick and Joe at Found Footage Festival for bringing new life to Rent-A-Friend -- thirty years after I created it. Amazing. Whether you find "Sam" funny or creepy, insightful or ridiculous, thank you for dropping by. You give me a kick, let me tell you!

Anyone else got brought here because of the new film RENT-A-PAL? Wow!! Inspiration indeed!

RENT-A-PAL brought me here... Can't believe what I'm watching here !

So THIS is what a serial killer/stalker's victim(s) last moments must be like, all the while gagged and tied to a chair in a basement.

"with a plyable face, you can get away with murder." If that's not a stone cold confession, I don't know what is.

Kinda disappointed we didn't end up in bed, I thought things were going great!

What’s the difference between this and the ASMR “caring friend” roleplay videos on KZfaq now? We’ve come full circle.

When he "takes a look around my place" I feel especially violated

Just watched Rent A Pal. They pulled material from this strange video.

I lost it when the phone rang and he picked it up and put it down to show how invested he is in what you're saying. Holy shit.

I can never think of anything to say during his silences ;_;

He's so sincere. I feel like he actually likes me.

I don't know who's lonelier: Sam or the people who bought this.

Y’know, this might actually bring joy to a lot of people even 30 years later. Yes, the movie did a great job of why some people need to get out more, but it actually is nice for some people to have someone to talk to.

Yes I am here because or Rent-A-Pal. I have to say something about this does draw you in. This actors did a fine job actually. What an odd idea, but I see why it landed in the 1980's. It should re-emerge. It would be a hit during covid time.

If this guy was whispering, this would be a pioneer ASMR video.

Rent a pal.. movie of the decade

So this is where Rent-a-Pal (2020) comes from?

Last week, I told my mom to play this at her sister's funeral because no one is gonna have good things to say. This video will keep people busy for a while. She didn't think it's a good idea.
