"Though you might not exactly be a bad parent or guardian if you showed this collection to an actual child, you would certainly be raising them in a way to make their minds as strange as possible. Watching THE PRINCESS AND THE MAGIC FROG made me pine for an AGFA release of THE MAGIC CHRISTMAS TREE. A fun release for the young-and-emotionally-stunted-at-heart. Big thanks to Adam Hursey for making it possible."
"In my youth I watched Czech puppet animation and thought, that's already crazy. Well, this set proves that in the US, they weren't averse to make oddball kids movies too (though there's also a Russian film in here). I had already heard of the adventures that took place in Balloon Land, the rest was new to me. There are sights here that must have broken the feeble brains of children in the '50s and '60s. AGFA again deliver a set that ticks off everything we love about physical media : amazing presentation, love and care into the preservation. The slipcover is a gem."
"Krazee Kids Video Party is a bizarre compilation of obscure children’s and family-oriented video segments from the VHS era, featuring strange performances, educational clips, and unintentionally surreal moments. The collection highlights the odd charm of low-budget home video productions from the 1980s and early 1990s. The Blu-ray release from American Genre Film Archive (AGFA) restores and preserves these rare tapes in high definition. Packed with additional oddball footage and contextual extras, the release celebrates the weird and nostalgic side of forgotten VHS culture."
"Watched with my kids and we were all equally fascinated by these older tv shows. Very fun watch if you’re into this kind of thing."
"Wonderfull release by AGFAxSomethingweird Packed with 5 gorgeous looking vintage flicks. Always blown away by these releases"
"Fun in Baloonland is the droning nightmare we all deserve."
"I highly recommend this disc if you love seeing bizzare shows and movies. Each one is like you took some out of date medicine and started watching tv. No wonder people are so messed up with growing up watching these movies HA. It was a blast. The big bad wolf was the best. It is funny to see the violence and killing with it being a kids movie. And why is there humans, anthros and then animals with hats all living in the same world? A must buy."
"i just had to pick this one up and it delivered, like Agfa almost always does. Awesome artwork and great contents. Highly recommended."
"Another great collection of gunk from the SWV vaults! These adventures are obviously not for everyone, but the saccharine brainmelt on offer might be just the ticket! My faves by a longshot are KINGDOM OF CROOKED MIRRORS & BIG BAD WOLF."
"the AGFA mixes are some of the best discs on the planet jah bless"
