Here’s a fifteen minute short film I found at an antique mall in rural Arkansas. The VHS tape had five or six siblings – analog tape chronicling one man’s journey as told through the annual Christmas gathering. I decided to take only two (they cost two bucks each and for some reason I was feeling too stingy to get them all and risk ending up with more vcr recordings of daytime television).
But nothing prepared me for what I would find; I still can’t quite explain what I am watching here. I’ve been really striking it gold in the old (at least in the kinds of found things that I like to come across), and this is definitely one of those intriguing mysteries that I enjoy uncovering.
How did this film even get made ? The edits seem both polished and meticulous (there is voice narration which I find strange for a home movie), but the scenes are amateurishly long and hypnotic.
What I ultimately like about this short is that it pretends to be a video about Christmas, when it is so obviously a film about coming to term’s with one’s finite being.
:neutral: If you DO come across old VHS of daytime TV, save them for me.
:shock:
wow. what the hell was that? This is a great find. I can see it all just as someone’s home movie because of things like the narration and constant fades in and out. What I can’t get around is the part about getting sick. Who did that part? it sticks out like a sore thumb against the rest of the film.
wow.
That was delightfully creepy. This man really did a good job on the video, even the narration was very good. I wonder what kind of equipment was used. Oh, and WTF?
