The cringiest VHS tapes your weird uncle threw out, now with drunk Brooklyn hecklers.
In this memorable show recorded live on Good Friday in Brooklyn, New York, Found Footage Festival hosts Joe Pickett and Nick Prueher serve up an eclectic lineup of obscure promotional tapes, industrial videos and found home movies that were never intended for a mass audience.
Editing
Perfect curation: every clip escalates the beautiful awkwardness.
Sound
Brooklyn crowd losing it over a confused Reagan adds everything.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Pickett and Prueher started collecting in 1991 at a McDonald's in Wisconsin; the 'strong men, strong nation' workout video remains their holy grail find.
This 2005 show predates YouTube by months, making it possibly the last time found footage felt like actual discovery rather than algorithmic content.
