Ahoy boys and girls! Get ready to roll up your breeches and grab your snorkels because it looks like the grand ‘ol Nitehawk Cinema has been flooded… with Deep Sea VHS! Those globe-sailing lads and lasses at VHS Vault, Wild Eye and Horror Boobs have gone fishing again for the weirdest, wackiest, and wettest VHS tapes they could reel in to bring you a one-of-a-kind event that?s just drowning in deep six video insanity. There will be more trailers, more crazy clips, more trivia games and more freebies than ever before – including a first-time ever, very special 3-D VHS segment so intense, we think we’ll need a bigger VCR! Meanwhile, Nitehawk’s onsite full restaurant and bar will provide you with all the right rations and rum specials to survive the night, but just when you thought it was safe to go back in the theater, we’ll be serving up a feature film from VHS so landlubbing ludicrous that your eyes will sting like a jellyfish – Lamberto Bava’s 1984 sexed-up sea monster masterpiece Devilfish. So when you are finally sick of staring at your leftover Thanksgiving bird, make sure to set sail to the Nitehawk Cinema on Sunday November 27th at 9:30 PM and enjoy an all-you-can-eat VHS seafood buffet for the eyes!
About Matt Desiderio

Matt D has been a manager, buyer and event coordinator at Forbidden Planet since 2005 or maybe it was 2006. Who can remember? We didn't even have computers back then. A native New Yorker from the borough of Queens, raised on Sunday Funnies, Monster Movies and Rock N' Roll. What better place to end up than Forbidden Planet where he can use his position to influence the city's pop culture. A responsibility he takes seriously more now than ever due to New York's consistent change for the worse. The last thing NYC needs is another cafe or bank so thank whatever it is you believe in that Forbidden Planet is here to stay. Beyond the walls of FP, Matt is a publicly recognized expert in cult and horror cinema with a focus on VHS. He is the founder of Horror Boobs a collective that books screenings and distributes weirdo films, the producer of the documentary Adjust Your Tracking: The Untold Story of the VHS collector, the publisher of the Blood Video zine, and is regrettably responsible for resurrecting the career of schizophrenic Shot-on Video director Carl J Sukenick.
