If you grew up skating (or even just appreciating) in the 90s, then you probably have an affinity for the guerilla-style, direct-to-VHS skate videos that dominated that particularly prolific era. This distinct filmmaking aesthetic, replete with low angle camera shots and fish eye lenses, sonically-fueled by indie hip-hop, punk and alt-jazz soundtracks, ooze with a certain inimitable style and nostalgia. Fortunately for us, South Florida skater and filmmaker Dylan Hughes has been hitting the VHStreets, armed with vintage VHS-C JVC GR-AX400 camcorder equipped with a Baby Death Fisheye Lens to recapture the feeling of those analog glory days. A VHStill...

The video vindication of Bloomingdale, NJ-based fresh VHS outfit Saturn’s Core Audio and Video might already be on your rewind radar from their limited edition slabs of analog celebrating obscure cult cinema like Christopher “The Black Ed Wood” Michael's 1995 health club horror epic Terror Of Blood Gym, a double-bill of lost William Hellfire flicks (To Escape Bondage and Swinging Swinger, done in association with Horror Boobs Video) and a pair of Carl J. Sukenick mind-benders with Blood Boy and Space Zombies. Saturn’s Core has recently VHSpewed forth yet another radical re-animation, this time unearthing some obscure shot-on-video insanity with...

Right on the heels of a most exciting analog announcement about Lunchmeat uncovering and unleashing (on Halloween!) the lost SOV flick starring Gary Cohen FRANKENSTEIN (I SWEAR ON MY MOTHER’S EYES) THE TRUE STORY, Lunchmeat is absolutely stoked to finally and officially announce yet another shot-on-video rarity re-animation coming in May of 2016 in association with Camp Motion Pictures! Newly appointed Fangoria Editor-in-Chief Michael Gingold exclusively announced the news and revealed the new artwork a couple of days ago via their website, so I’ll let him take it away but not without words from yours truly about this amazing shot-on-video...

When most Tapeheads think of shot-on-video filmmaking, they’re almost immediately inclined to think of no-budget, backyard flicks oozing with gallons of homemade blood and guts. And with good reason, man. Consumer grade camcorders helped innumerable fledgling filmmakers bring their indie nightmares to flesh and tape, no matter how horrific, ham-fisted or downright insane. But filmmaker Jon YonKondy sees through the shot-on-video lens a little differently. Though he had a late bloom into the world of filmmaking, he’s since been able to work alongside some heavy-hitting productions and actors, and continues to make moves in the bigger-budget film world. However, when...
