Found Footage Festival Vol 5

January 28, 2011 Matt Desiderio Other Topics Comments Off on Found Footage Festival Vol 5

Vidiots unite this weekend, Friday January 28 and Saturday January 29, for the Found Footage Festival at Anthology Film Archives.

The Found Footage Festival is a one-of-a-kind event that showcases footage from videos that were found at garage sales and thrift stores and in warehouses and dumpsters across the country.

Not only will our eyes be marred by the newest entry in FFF catalog but as a truly special treat they’re screening “Heavy Metal Parking Lot” with co-director John Heyn in attendance.

But wait there’s more… Free Beer if you’re over 21 and while supplies last.

What more could you ask for? Merch designed by Johnny Ryan, they got that too.

So what would I do if I saw Joe Pickett, Nick Prueher, Glenn Severance, the men behind FFF?

I jump their bones!

What better place to end up than Forbidden Planet where he can use his position to influence the city's pop culture.
