In his latest interview from this year’s Romford Horror Film Festival, Kevin sits down with eleven(!) members of the cast and crew of the new British horror anthology Video Shop Tales of Terror.
Six terrifying tales emanate from a sinister video shop in this British retro anthology movie and loving tribute to the 1980s VHS era. Every tale is handled by a respected indie horror director: Mj Dixon (Pandamonium), Sam Mason-Bell (Acting), Ciao Handy (Tales from the Great War), Alexander Churchyard (I Scream on the Beach!), Tom Lee Rutter (Day of the Stranger) and Michael Fausti (Exit). With faux trailers from Geoff Harmer (Dead Air) & Tony Mardon (The Witches of the Sands). Immerse yourself in two hours of retro horror nostalgia, from a bunch of people who love the era as much as you do! This is an anthology horror in the classic style of horror studios from the past but with a twist.

An anthology of tales paying the ultimate homage to the 70/80s Video Nasty Tromaesque-era, from a team of some of the best writers/directors in the lower budget UK horror scene. A carefully curated selection of shorts all with varying degrees of depravity broken up by a wrap around story of the Video Dungeon, all delightfully introduced by Brit Scream Queen royalty Dani Thompson (putting in a number of roles throughout). Anthology movies do seem to be making somewhat of a comeback as of late and have a bit of a tendency of “trying too hard...

"There are some things worse than airline food," and a punk rock band is about to find that out the hard way while 30,000 feet in the air in the proof of concept short film Dead Air. Directed by Geoff Harmer and written by Peter Hearn (the filmmaker behind Scrawl), Dead Air is a love letter to ’80s practical effects and flat-out fun horror comedies, and while it has been filmed, it needs your help getting across the finish line.
From Dead Air's Indiegogo Page: "Dead Air is a story about a group of female punks on a plane to their final gig who come up against a horde of evil little creatures who want nothing more than to drag everyone to hell.
We Have Shot It. We Now Need Your Help To Finish It.

One all-female punk rock band. One Boeing 737. One horde of creepy creatures brought to life using practical puppet effects. If you now have a smile on your face wide enough to rival Jack Torrance's grin, then you'll likely be a big fan of what director Geoff Harmer has in store for his next short film, Dead Air.
Written by Peter Hearn (the filmmaker behind Scrawl), Dead Air is planned as a proof of concept short that will be one big step towards getting a feature film version made. Today, Harmer and Hearn launched a Kickstarter campaign for Dead Air, giving horror fans insights into their love letter to ’80s practical effects and flat-out fun horror comedies. To learn more, check out the official press release, concept art, and video below, and visit the official page for the Kickstarter campaign.
