Aussie Fresh VHS Outfit EX-FILM Offers Up FIVE New Limited Edition PAL VHS Slabs with VAMPIRE HOOKERS, WATERPOWER, THE THIRSTY DEAD, SILENT NIGHT BLOODY NIGHT, and JEYKLL & HYDE PORTFOLIO!
The more rabid and attentive Tapeheads should already be familiar with the Australia-based outfit EX-FILM, who have firmly established themselves as the premiere entity from down under currently issuing limited edition batches of fresh PAL VHS. Their newly produced analog versions of titles like ACT OF VENGENACE aka RAPE SQUAD, Mike Malloy’s documentary EUROCRIME (a co-release with Celluloid Apocalypse, which is now sold out) and the absolutely incredible and lip-lickingly lush limited edition for Lunchmeat favorite I DRINK YOUR BLOOD, are all spectacular VHSights to behold.

VHS Collecting in 2017: The Perks of Online Tape Trading and The Thrill of Hunting the Rewind Wild!
I had originally written this piece on July 24th, 2016 on a bus ride up to Horror Boobs Headquarters in New York, subsequently submitting it to the first issue of an indie VHS-centric zine which unfortunately never made it to publication.

DR. FRANKENSTEIN’S CASTLE OF FREAKS Magnum Entertainment Clamshell Goes for $2100 on eBay AKA The Ill Effects of Ignorant and Sensational VHS Collecting Journalism in the Modern Rewind-Inclined World!
The ills of slapdash and sensationalistic coverage on VHS Collecting have now become more apparent than ever. The much maligned (within the VHS collector community) article on “The Most Valuable VHS in the World” published by UK-Based site LoveAntiques.com has now made a visible impact on pricing (even here in the US!), made evident by recent eBay activity. It’s a most absurd, altogether laughable but unfortunately real string of events for dedicated collectors, and my hope is that this article has the ability to make the rounds, and VHSpread a bit of informed insight and ultimate truth on the reality...
