VHS Homage Indie Horror Creation 'Dead Format' First Look Teaser

"At Video Castle, we have a selection fit for a King! Or a Queen!" Reel Splatter Productions has revealed the first look teaser trailer for an indie horror creation called Dead Format, which is finishing up and getting ready for release in 2027. Not to be confused with the video game also called Dead Format, while both are about VHS, this one is a feature film not a game. Both look good anyway! During the final days of the video store era, a collector desperately clinging to the past while grieving his father's death finds a mysterious tape at his local video store and discovers that nostalgia can come at a terrible price. It's set at a place called the Video Castle – and it definitely reminds me of video stores I used to frequent as a kid. The indie horror film stars Mark Worth as Kevin, Joey Cook, Austin Greene, Fia Thomson, Mia Grichendler, Henry Sirota, Chet Williamson, Matt Lake. Made by Reel Splatter with lots of practical FX and old school VHS vibes all over the place. Something about a cursed VHS tape? Keep an eye out for this one landing next year. // Continue Reading ›
