The Mahoning Drive-In Theater and Lunchmeat VHS are absolutely VHStoked to bring you 2 days and nights jam-packed with mind-bending movies, VHS-lovin’ vendors, groovy games, radical music, killer contests, and so much more!

Hey-yo, Tapeheads! It’s FINALLY here! LUNCHMEAT #9 is now ready to boogie woogie on your rewind-inclined brain, dudes! This brand spankin’ new issue is jam-packed with 52 pages of VHS-obsessed content including reviews of VHS-only titles like Terror on Tour, My Brother Has Bad Dreams, Invasion Force, Battle of the Bullies and many more!   We’ve also got radical interviews with Pleasant Gehman all about her experience filming the punk rock ripper The Runnin’ Kind, words with low-budget action movie Renaissance Man David Heavener, and director Robet McGinley talks about creating the post-apocalyptic skate punk world of Shredder Orpheus!

The incredible world of custom miniatures and magnetic magic are seemingly starting to mate, Tapeheads. UK-based artist Andrew Glazebrook is currently fashioning a miniature video store complete with slab-lined shelves, essential home video posters and some seriously authentic video store vibes. He’s even got coffee ring stains on the wooden check-out counter. The attention to detail is beyond rich, and Lunchmeat was VHStoked to offer up a work-in-progress sneak peek on his mini-video store project a little while back via our Instagram feed. You can peep that preview video just below, dudes.   A post shared by VHS is Happiness....
