The Max Headroom Pirate Incidents

Before Everything Is Terrible!, before TIM & ERIC’S AWESOME SHOW, GREAT JOB!, there was THE LOST & FOUND VIDEO NIGHT -- a series of ten found footage compilations released in the early 2000s. Available only through mail order, these compilations helped define the culture of video mixtapes. In partnership with the original creators, AGFA has compiled and remixed the best-of-the-best LOST & FOUND clips to bring you THE LOST & FOUND VIDEO NIGHT MIXTAPE! Filled with celebrity meltdowns, gonzo evangelists, and home movies from the void, this is a hallucinogenic journey through a dream-like wonderland of found footage lunacy.

There's nothing dreamier than the moment when the lights go down and the show begins. Now imagine capturing that feeling for 77 minutes of concentrated bliss. Exploding from the vaults of the American Genre Film Archive (AGFA), THE CULT OF AGFA TRAILER SHOW is a sequel to THE AGFA HORROR TRAILER SHOW . . . and AGFA's wildest mixtape yet. Meticulously constructed by the mad scientists at AGFA to resemble an otherworldly night at a mall multiplex, this compilation features rare trailers, commercials, and ephemera—all of which were preserved and scanned exclusively for this project.

Welcome to the 1980s TV horrorshow that never was. PHANTASMATAPES is a psychotronic VHS mixtape that reimagines THE REVENGE OF DR. X (a Japan-set creature feature that was written by Ed Wood) and THE BRAIN THAT WOULDN'T DIE (the savage body horror film that inspired FRANKENHOOKER) as a late-nite, home-taped double feature—complete with local TV commercials and a new synthesizer score from Taken by Savages (JUNGLE TRAP). Inspired by hazy memories of channel-surfing at the witching hour, this is a nostalgic and experimental art project from the minds behind Bleeding Skull.

A found footage exploration of a childhood haunting.

In the 1990s, Something Weird Video gifted humankind with HEY FOLKS! IT'S INTERMISSION TIME—a series of six magical VHS compilations that preserved vintage movie and drive-in ads. HEY FOLKS! IT'S THE INTERMISSION TIME MIXTAPE! (an exclusive feature-length mixtape from the AGFA team) is a loving tribute to those cathode-tube-fueled days.

A found footage exploration of the Dungeons & Dragons witch hunt.

AGFA’S SPECIAL CHRISTMAS SPECIAL is a brand new, feature-length mixtape culled from the tinsel-strewn video vaults of the American Genre Film Archive (AGFA). Beaming with deranged holiday cheer, this compilation wouldn’t feel out of place on a broadcast from the TV station in VIDEODROME.

Culled from over fifteen hours of footage by the American Genre Film Archive, this mixtape is the definitive presentation of public access TV’s most otherworldly show, The Stairway to Stardom.

Exploitation demigod James Bryan’s massively entertaining, decapitation-fueled shot-on-video horror masterpiece about a jungle hotel haunted by kill-crazy ghosts in loin cloths, shot in 1990 and unreleased until THIS VERY MOMENT.

Cursed demonic circus clowns set out on a vengeful massacre using tornadoes. A stripper, Elvis impersonator, truck driver, teen runaway, and a dude get caught in the supernatural battle between femme fatal and the boss clown from hell.

THE AGFA MYSTERY MIXTAPE VAULT is a 2-disc, 500-minute odyssey that collects eight feature-length VHS mixtapes from the crackpots at AGFA—including two that have only ever been available theatrically.

Welcome to the 1980s TV horrorshow that never was . . . again. Set around Halloween, PHANTASMATAPES II is a psychotronic VHS mixtape that reimagines ATOM AGE VAMPIRE (an Italian mutation of Georges Franju's EYES WITHOUT A FACE) and DON'T LOOK IN THE BASEMENT (the gritty proto-slasher from filmmaker S.F. Brownrigg) as a late-nite, home-taped double feature—complete with local TV commercials and a new synthesizer score from Taken by Savages (JUNGLE TRAP). Inspired by hazy memories of channel-surfing at the witching hour, this is a nostalgic and experimental art project from the minds behind Bleeding Skull.

Neon and slime are more important in life than sleep and hamburgers. So it’s only natural for AGFA and Bleeding Skull! to team up with life’s most essential ingredients to deliver a mixtape that’s more essential than life itself. THE NEON SLIME MIXTAPE is a hallucinogenic compilation that celebrates gore-soaked, gloop-drenched, direct-to-video genre anarchy from the 1980s and 90s. Coked-out demons! Extraterrestrial aerobics! Barbie dolls that kill!! Featuring digest versions of our favorite DIY slimers, ultra-rare trailers, and unseen clips from beyond the otherverse, THE NEON SLIME MIXTAPE will rip off your head and blast your spirit through the cosmos -- and that’s only the first fifteen minutes.
