NECRONOMICON FANZINE conjures up the love for VHS in the UK!

Howdy, Videovores! Jacob AKA Uncouth here to hip you to an awesome UK based horror fanzine I recently stumbled across in my frequent journeys through the weirdness. I’m a huge fan of print zines (hence my contributions to Lunchmeat!) and I’m always on the prowl for new ones... or... in this case... ones that are new to me! A prime example of the amazingly DIY covers for NECRONOMICON!! Dig that cut and paste smack in the face!! Necronomicon Fanzine has been in publication since way back in 2001! Currently on issue 23, the zine’s creator Necro Neil, has been pumping...

I Was a Teenage Videovore: Johnny Dickie prepares to unleash his first Full-Length feature SLAUGHTER TALES

Johnny Dickie is an extremely avid (and super-cool) VHS collector who not only runs his own website called Video Vendetta which is dedicated to showcasing and reviewing some of the grooviest and most obscure VHS flicks known to the Videovore , he's also just completed his very first full-length feature entitled SLAUGHTER TALES (premiering next Saturday, May 19th at Severed Sinema's Film Festival first ever VHS Event!) all written, directed and edited by Johnny himself. But you wanna know what's even more groovy? Johnny's done all of this before his 15th birthday. And while he's quick to dismiss his age...

Cinema Waste(d)land Revisited: An Analog Fueled Adventure

I almost didn’t make it to Cinema Wasteland this year. I had been planning to go for about two months, shooting messages back and forth with my good buddy Louis about how amazingly killer the weekend was going to be, especially since I only get to see him and select other friends of mine around this time of the year. I was stoked. I even got my good buddy Tyler on board with me to come join the party and share the eight hour drive with me. All systems were go and it was looking damn sweet. In my attempt...

A Different Kind of Creature Feature on VHS...

Skateboarding and horror movies? Who would have thought? The two seem far from a likely pairing, but according to NHS Inc. Skateboard Distribution out of Santa Cruz, CA, they are a match made in heaven (or hell for that matter). NHS is the parent company behind classic brands such as Santa Cruz Skateboards and Independent Truck Company, and the focal point of this here blog post – Creature Skateboards. Frankenstein? Werewolf? Skateboarder! A whole new kind'a teenage love- in! I was first introduced to Creature in the early 90’s, when they were a small team with only a few riders,...

SOV Trashterpieces HELL ROLLER and GORE-MET ZOMBIE CHEF FROM HELL get VHSHIT on!

It’s (somewhat) official: Hell Roller Is Worse Than Things… As a VHS hunter and obscure film watcher, I’ve seen more than my fair share of terrible films. You know the ones: they promise action but all they do is talk, talk, talk, like some kind of nightmarish date, right? I mean, it’s clear why those flicks never made it to DVD: they weren’t worth putting onto VHS in the first place. There’s nothing worse than a boring flick. Be great, be awful, just don’t be boring. However, there are other films that despite having a profusion of action, are still...
