Talkin' Tape(s) with Voracious VHS Collector Vincent October AKA Monster A GO GO! Peer Inside the Strange Mind of a Videovore!!

LUNCHMEAT is the kind of publication that’s made for Videovores by Videovores. So, every once in a while, we like to kick back, crack a couple beverages, juice up some nacho platters and catch up with one of our kindred spirits in order to get an individual perspective of what’s going on in the seemingly ever-expanding, analog-obsessed subculture of VHS collecting and preservation. It’s a fun and informative way to see the kinds of groovy personalities which reside in our sub-culture, and also get a look at the hot topics that permeate the collector circuit. On the menu tonight we...

Horror Boobs Video unleashes I SPILL YOUR GUTS on VHS and Director James Balsamo spills HIS guts all about it!

James Balsamo is one busy guy. Whenever I see him, he's either at an event promoting one of his flicks and / or unreeling these amazing stories about one his recent filming excursions. And when he's not spreading his independent insanity amongst the masses or beguiling me with his charm and charisma, he's out there making a movie. His films are oozing with that unmistakable independent essence of making a scene happen on-the-spot, pulling amazing cameos out of nowhere and and securing some of the sleaziest, greasiest, most befitting tunes imaginable for his films. And now, with the release of...

Video Vittles from the Vault: Rob Hauschild dares you to rummage through his TAPES FROM THE TRASH BIN!

Rob Hauschild is without a doubt one of the most ardent and old-school tapeheads that I know. He's been championing the format since I was just a wee little Videovore (hell, probably before I was even conceived, really), and his WILD EYE RELEASING label was one the first (if the not thee first) companies to bring VHS back into circulation, dishing out titles on the video format complete with artwork paying homage to the beloved companies from the golden age of the video era. Oh, and he also published a little magazine called VEX back in the day that totally...

VULTRA VIDEO offers up analog awesomeness with video releases for DEAD CITY and NECRO FILES!

Jason West and David Royal are two dudes that truly adore the VHS format and the plethora of film culture it tangibly preserves. Inspired and motivated by their keen affection, they’ve started Vultra Video: an independent operation dedicated to celebrating and propagating the love for obscure fringe film and the video format. David and Jason were kind enough to send me their newest release Dead City, and the whole package is just mad groovy. The film is a perfect fit for the VHS format, and all the extras were just mega-bitchin’. They’re an exemplary moving part in the ballooning VHS...

VHS is ALIVE at Suspect Video and Culture! Clickity-click the link, fellow Videovores, and experience the Analog Affirmation!

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...
