Before I started stitching together my own slab of video appreciation and celebration, I of course craved coverage on video era esoterica . And way on back in 2005, to feed the need for that obscure cinema connection, I frequented sites like Critcononline.com and BleedingSkull.com, the latter being the only place on the world weird web where I could find an actual review of the flick that inspired the namesake of my perpetual VHS love letter: Kirk Alex's backwoods B-fest, Lunch Meat! And what a doozy it was, man! Intrigued and excited, I perused and explored and spelunked my way...

His PHANTOM PAIN FILMS label released the cult favorite DEVIL TIMES FIVE on limited magnetic magic a little while back, and in the meantime, Matt’s been amassing a veritable library of videos, which now reaches into a fearsome five figures range. And with this massive collection of analog escapes, he’s decided to open up an indie pop-up old-school video shop where he can unload an avalanche of tape-tastic treats on the nostalgia-minded masses. All of this awesomeness is happening in tandem with the Cleveland, OH screening for ADJUST YOUR...

Chris LaMartina is a factory. He’s the kind of filmmaker whose influences are firmly rooted in low-budget, video era knowhow, his aesthetic inclinations gleaned from Mom & Pop rental shelves and home-dubbed video cassettes. These essential spirits commingle with the raw blood, sweat and copious amounts of coffee coursing through his veins as he churns out the films of his dreams (and nightmares) at a breakneck pace. He tirelessly endeavors to foster his creative spirit, simultaneously chipping away at multiple projects, using his lunch break (from the day jobbie) to edit his film(s), and continually dreaming up new projects while...

The amped-up analog aficionados over at Lazer Paladin Video have already wowed Videovores with their super-rad package for the Eamon Hardiman splatterpiece PORKCHOP 3D, stuffing their limited video release with groovy 3D glasses, art prints, pins and committing the analog insanity to orange cassettes. They’ve kept up the magnetic momentum and much to LUNCHMEAT’S delight, they’re back once again ready to send fringe film fiends into a frenzy with the utterly outrageous Dustin Mills puppetry-infested mind-melter THE PUPPET MONSTER MASSACRE! LPV is just about set to unleash these slabs of video vindication in three – count ‘em three! – distinctly...
