Chances are the names Shawn Lewis and Stephen Romano are already bumping around your rewind-inclined minds, Videovores. Lewis, who is the main brain behind the staple horror shirt shop Rotten Cotton, and Romano, who is responsible for the outrageously fun faux-horror flick compendium Shock Festival alongside some work within Masters of Horror, are two dudes that have been grinding in the contemporary horror sphere for their share of years.   But what you might not know, is that these guys are total Tapeheads.

Bookwalter’s zombie trashterpiece The Dead Next Door as a part of their now completed Indiegogo for the Ultimate Edition of that same watershed indie horror film.

The incredible world of custom miniatures and magnetic magic are seemingly starting to mate, Tapeheads. UK-based artist Andrew Glazebrook is currently fashioning a miniature video store complete with slab-lined shelves, essential home video posters and some seriously authentic video store vibes. He’s even got coffee ring stains on the wooden check-out counter. The attention to detail is beyond rich, and Lunchmeat was VHStoked to offer up a work-in-progress sneak peek on his mini-video store project a little while back via our Instagram feed.

For many (okay, I’ll say all) fans of contemporary horror, Stranger Things is a show that needs no introduction. Widely lauded by horror fans everywhere as being the near-perfect throwback thriller / horror adventure story that oozes with 80s aesthetics and clever nods to retro essentials, nailing that dose of nostalgia most everyone had been craving, Stranger Things is arguably the best thing to happen to mainstream horror in recent memory. And soon, in another tribute to its retro roots, Netflix will be teaming up with Target to release an exclusive Blu-Ray / DVD set of Stranger Things Season One...
