Dead Formats
@deadformats.bsky.social
A movie podcast dedicated to breathing new life into dead formats – interactive movies, made-for-TV stuff, shot-on-video films, that sort of thing. If it’s obscure, bizarre, or almost unwatchable, we want to talk about it.
🔍🎬 Let's celebrate #Godzilla 's birthday! Wolfman vs. Godzilla (1983) is on the table in our latest Dead Formats episode, featuring insights from @weeklymassacre.bsky.social . If you're a fan of Godzilla (or wolfmen), this one's for you! #WolfmanVsGodzilla

From a regional instructional VHS called Country & Western Dance Lessons - pure analog gold for fans of video-era oddities. The transitions. The twang. The Texas 2-step. It’s everything you didn’t know you needed.
