Screaming Like Banshees Unleashes their Backwoods Slasher Flick THE LURKING on Limited Edition VHS!

Exceptionally attentive Tapeheads are apt to remember an analog-inclined outfit by the name of Screaming Like Banshees: a group of Wisconsin-based indie filmmakers who unleashed a self-produced cheezy chunk of horror anthology homage entitled TERRORTALES on fresh VHS around August of 2013. Since then, this low-budget film collective has been roaming the Wisconsin woods and churning up buckets of fake blood in order to put together their newest cinematic concoction THE LURKING: a one-hour trip into the low lives of two drugged out degenerates who stumble around the woods and try to get laid while 11 (count ‘em – 11!)...

If you’re a frequent visitor to the VHS-obsessed landscape of Lunchmeat Land, you’re sure to recall a recent feature on modern day movies receiving the retro VHS treatment where films such MAD MAX: FURY ROAD, Spike Jonze’s HER and ONLY GOD FORGIVES were transformed into fantasy video tapes much to the visual pleasure of Videovores everywhere.

Rewind-Inclined Radness: Nerdist.com Shares a Set of Modern Movies Transformed into VHS Tapes!
