For those who are already initiated and active in the ever-expanding Videovore community, chances are you’re familiar with Matt Desiderio AKA Matt D. AKA Katrina AKA Mattrina of Horror Boobs fame. And if you’re not, you probably should be. Matt’s a guy that’s been actively gathering slabs of analog amazement for a good spell longer than most us tapeheads, diggin’ through dust-ridden porno shops and raiding fading video liquidators raking in gobs of analog glory. And over the past few years, he’s spearheaded countless video vindication, celebration and appreciation events, made amazing analog era oriented art and crafted some of...

Comic creator Dan Goodsell has been at it for just about 20 years with his character Mr. Toast, and along the way he’s created a host of other fun and super-cute characters to join Mr. Toast on his illustrated expeditions. But most recently, Goodsell has put together a brand new buddy to join in on the fun: a VHS tape named Vincent! And how groovy he is!

One of the grooviest things about having a snail mail address is getting cool stuff in the mail, right? You’re damn skippy. And, here at Lunchmeat, we’re fortunate enough to receive some pretty neato stuff e.g. VHS tapes, strange cryptic letters and groovy-as-hell indie publications from other folks who love VHS as much as we do. And as luck may have it, this past mail call contained one of my personal favorite fanzines that champion the almighty analog format: CRIMSON SCREENS! CRIMSON SCREENS #11 has arrived! And it RULES! Ed-in-Chief and Indie Publisher Edward Black was gracious enough to send...

When it comes to supplying the Canadian masses with their fix of the weird and wonderful via analog escapes, SUSPECT VIDEO AND CULTURE is arguably one of the grooviest places in the Great White North. Opened way back on August, 3 1991 by Luis Ceriz and company, the store has survived and thrived through a wicked store fire and, of course, the ever-changing face of the physical media market. Luis Ceriz talks about SUSPECT’s beginning: “It was a pretty great time to open as the new American Independent scene was about to explode and video stores were super popular.” Suspect...
