ARCADE ATTACK - pinballs characters vs space invaders?

i was searching something in my old collections and i found this vhs, ARCADE ATTACK.. and it was just funny see it again with my friends, it was a lot of "do you remember that pinball?" and "whoa!" , and "shot it down" ....anyways let me talk about it a little... It starts off as a documentary about pinball machines and the rise of the video game. Especially focused on the game 'Defender'. A rockabilly type of guy explains his love for Pinball machines and another fan walks around a room that must be the wet dream of every pinball-lover out there. Then it cuts to a guy playing defender and explaining how it works. They also show you a couple of classic arcade machines. So you would think that videogames would mark the end of an era for the pinball machines and that the documentary would go in this direction. Wrong. They keep switching between pinball machines and arcade machines until the artwork on both machines come alive (through the wonders of animation...although i not sure if is rotoscope or not..) and start battling each other through the city of London. So you have an Egyptian Horus (straight of a pinball machine) fighting a space invader. And another warrior-girl throws pinballs to destroy a space invader. And then something amazing happens to the rockabilly pinball-lover. I can't explain it and i won't. You just have to see it to believe it. But it was so much more. It turned into a unbelievable trip. Go watch it... NOW. i know this thing is it from 1982, and from uk... but u got to admit u have seen those pinballs, working or not---
