Canadian Filmmaker Torin Langen Starts Analog Distro LOVECHILD PICTURES, Set to Release the James Felix McKenney Sci-fi Flick AUTOMATONS on Limited Edition VHS in Conjunction with Glass Eye Pix!

Torin Langen is a name you may recognize from his low-budget (but high-quality) production company Candle Flame Films and the spooktacular short film Fondue. His affinity for analog has been previously evidenced by some radical limited edition VHS released through Candle Flame, including the SOV throwback horror short Trash. Langen has now reignited his analog inclination, this time with the start of the Limited Edition VHS distribution banner LOVECHILD PICTURES, which is set to release the James Felix McKenney black and white, dystopian sci-fi film Automatons in a limited edition of 50. Here’s Torin with more details on the start...

Cult Shot On VHS Public Access Variety Show 30 MINUTES OF MADNESS Gets Revisited with the Full Length Feature Documentary 20 YEARS OF MADNESS! A Most Excellent In-Depth Interview with Main Brain Jerry White, Jr!

When Jerry White, Jr. and a few of his friends first started filming their backyard hijinks with a VHS camcorder in the early 90s, they had little idea that it would be the basis for one of the most significant times in their lives. 30 Minutes of Madness is a cult variety show that ran through the early to mid-90s on Public Access. It’s largely shot-on-video, chock full of low-brow humor, non-sequitur and all kinds of experimental antics, created by a counter-culture collective consisting of self-proclaimed outsider artists from Michigan. These shot-on-video skits contain improvisational entertainment that just drip with...

RAREVISION Offers an IOS Application that Transforms your iPhone and iPad into an 80s VHS Camcorder Allowing You to Capture Audio and Video Imbued with Analog Aesthetics!

In what could be seen as an ultimate dose of analog irony, there is now an application for your iPhone and iPad that allows you to capture audio and video with your smartphone with amazingly authentic VHS camcorder quality. That’s right, Tapeheads, I’m talking glorious bottom-screen static grit, home video visual grain, a washed out rewind-inclined color palette and, yes, even an era authentic date and time stamp that you can spoof to create the illusion of taking your video anytime from the 80s up until right now. Looks pretty dang good to me, Tapeheads! I wonder if they have...
