Found Footage Fest in NYC

The Found Footage Festival, hosted by Joe Pickett and Nick Prueher (The Onion, Late Show With David Letterman, The Colbert Report), brings its most unsettling collection of odd and hilarious found VHS yet to Anthology Film Archives. Get ready to laugh and scream at the detritus treasures of the VHS era.

Ticket price includes a Brooklyn Brewery beer (must be 21+).

Two shows: 7:30 and 10PM

Among the new clips featured in the 2012 program:

• A video featuring a woman whose enthusiasm for craft sponging borders on psychotic
• A new collection of exercise tapes, including one called “The Sexy Treadmill Workout”
• Never-before-seen clips from the Kenny “K-Strass” Strasser yo-yo pranks that the FFF hosts pulled on local news stations last year
• An “opening act” of found classroom films from the ‘60s and ‘70s, curated especially for the show by renowned collector Skip Elsheimer of A.V. Geeks
• Highlights from a 1986 video about how to care for your ferret
