Sinopse
A lonely artist creates a film by himself in his backyard for his own entertainment.
Um grupo de pequenos criminosos é contratado para recuperar um vídeo encontrado em uma casa dilapidada no meio do nada. Eles logo percebem que o trabalho não vai ser tão fácil quanto pensavam. Ao procurarem o certo entre pilhas de fitas VHS, eles se deparam com um número aparentemente interminável de vídeos assustadores, cada um mais estranho que o último.
Two newly hired video store clerks are asked by their new boss to deliver a package to a theater across town. Unbeknownst to them, the package is truly a shipment of cocaine for a local drug kingpin.
Home video changed the world. The cultural and historical impact of the VHS tape was enormous. This film traces the ripples of that impact by examining the myriad aspects of society that were altered by the creation of videotape.
Two estranged brothers reunite at their missing father's video store to liquidate the property and sell off his assets. As they dig through the store, they find a VCR board game titled 'Beyond the Gates' that holds a connection to their father's disappearance and deadly consequences for anyone who plays it.
A VHS collector with a drinking problem finds a valuable movie that could save his terrible economical situation. The film disappears. He suspects it is stolen and starts a hunt after a perpetrator.
Na Romênia dos anos 1980, milhares de filmes ocidentais atravessaram a Cortina de Ferro e abriram uma janela para o mundo livre para quem se atrevesse a olhar. Um escroque de fitas VHS do mercado negro e uma corajosa tradutora trouxeram a magia dos filmes para as pessoas e provocaram uma revolução.
A documentary capturing the modern day VHS culture and VHS collectors.
As the dissociated convenience of the Internet and globalized corporate culture continue to shut down brick-and-mortar video stores, what will happen to the longstanding, local hangouts with their rugged individuals known as clerks and the communities who love them? Videosyncracy follows three very different video rental stores as they negotiate their survival in three distinct Los Angeles neighborhoods: Old Bank DVD in the Downtown arts district, Vidiots in sunny seaside Santa Monica, and Eddie Brandt’s Saturday Matinee in bustling North Hollywood. Their stories chronicle not only the birth and twilight of a particular kind of corner store, but also decades of personal lives intertwined with those of their communities, the new challenges and facilities of a rapidly changing world, and an enduring love of the movies, a slice of Americana on the brink of disappearance yet defiant to the end.
Curious loner Dingo Jones dives head first into a local legend suggesting the existence of a panther living in the Australian bush. This strange and twisted path leads him deep into the wilderness searching for the panther alone and on foot, while gaining further insight through interviews with witnesses and contact with professional big cat researchers. This mystical fever dream of a film is the debut feature from radical new director Dingo Jones. With no discerning between fact and fiction the audience is dazzled with hallucinatory visuals and an exceptionally original soundtrack. This charismatic example of DIY filmmaking is incredibly exciting in the way it blends comedy, horror and experimental cinema
