Found Footage Festival: VHS Nostalgia/Freakshow

by Eileen Milman

I’ve recently discovered the Found Footage Fest‘s Youtube channel. And man, is it filled with an enormous amount of bizarre, low quality video clips. Most of the footage featured is extremely strange. I’m not sure if it’s the early-nineties aesthetics or, the creepy synth music, but they’re all transfixing. The channel features video footage that you would probably find at a yard sale, or a garbage dump somewhere if they weren’t rescued by FFF, and so lovingly edited and uploaded. 

 The Found Footage Festival started when they stumbled across a training video entitled, “Inside and Outside Custodial Duties” in a McDonald’s break room. Since then, they have compiled a sick collection of strange, outrageous and profoundly stupid videos on VHS.

It’s amazing how many unintentionally funny video’s there are! Check it out:

 (Here’s a small taste, check out their website, or Youtube for more.)
