I don't recall if a video store as such appears in Mel Brooks' Spaceballs, but there is an extended joke in the film about the straight-to-video release of some features (which involves warping narrative time). For a more disturbing setting, see the "adult" store episode in Michael Haneke's The Piano Teacher. If you do a search on IMDB using the term "video store" for "content," you'll come up with a long list that includes most of the titles you list and more.
