2024, 70 min, Curator: Bret Berg, Joseph A. Ziemba
A mind-altering mixtape from The American Genre Film Archive! Mid-century America runs amok in this haunted found-footage ode to moviegoing and the snack bar. In the tradition of Negativland and Devo, AGFA’s archival gremlins have spun a mountain of vintage cinema and drive-in ads (courtesy of Something Weird Video) into satanic word salad. Beneath, behind, and between the movies lie carbonized hot dogs from Hades, velvety vapid voiceovers, bewitching visuals, and pizza from the eighth dimension. Take a psychedelic trip to the lobby with us.
