Just did this. Tried unplugging everything that wasn't the VCR, source, or TV. Lines remain.

Tried changing the cable. Lines remain.

Tried putting in an RF modulator instead of the VCR. Picture quality is awful, even by RF standards, but the lines are gone.

Look in the RF modulator for 1uf and .47uf electrolytic caps. They were notorious for failing and causing that.
I'll give this a shot.
