Reviews
Excellent Horror Trailer Mixtape!
"This was a fun and wild ride! The mashup of horror trailers was very cool and a load of fun to watch! The extras were also really cool as was the rest of the included commentary! I can definitely recommend this one!"
— Paul K. (5/5)
Good mood-setting movie
"I will use this as a background atmosphere for Halloween. It's a curated collection of horror trailers spanning the 60s through the early 90s, with playful intermission sequences."
— Noel H. (4/5)
Pretty cool compilation
"Super fun and interesting. It might not be the best thing for movie night but its great tobput on in the background for halloween parties"
— Stephen J. (5/5)
AFGA!
"While the main show is a blast, the real prize is the bonus feature-length mixtape, Videorage, which focuses entirely on shot-on-video (SOV) insanity from the '80s and '90s"
— Kevin G. (5/5)
Fun time with AGFA
"Though a few trailers grate with their endless title repetitions, The AGFA Horror Trailer Show is a blast. A lovingly assembled compilation from folks who love movies beyond mere quality or polish. It perfectly captures the wild spirit of exploitation-era drive-ins, complete with concession-stand junk food defiance."
— CHAN T. (5/5)
Video Wall Greatness
"I love these trailer show and mixtape style compilations. . When we have parties, we put this (and others) on with some classic goth and punk music playing throughout the house, and just let them play through the night. If we're outside, I'll project it on the side of the house. While I do wonder what the neighbors think sometimes, none have said a word about it yet, so I assume they're sitting in their yard, secretly watching and enjoying the chaos as well."
— Manny S. (5/5)
AGFA-026
"Nice compilation release, decent extras also !!"
— richard c. (5/5)
Slices of the goopiest greatest worst flicks you've probably already seen
"What a collection - basically one long string of "hell yeah" or "I remember that!" especially if you're already a VS freak. Great casual watch for an easy weekend afternoon. Cover artwork and the slip in general kill."
— Kelsey G. (5/5)
Great collection
"Def worth the price"
— Daniel A. (5/5)
Fun horror trailer mixtape with interludes, plus
"We watched this a bit piecemeal, throwing on 20-30 minutes here and there when we had a little time left after finishing a movie but not long enough for another feature. And it was as fun as expected. The trailers are a wild ride, there's fun interludes breaking it up, and I added some films to my watchlist. On top of that there's a bonus direct-to-video mix that's pretty fun, too. Whenever it starts to drag a little, another trailer or segment is around the corner. Solid case art and disc design. Will pick up another AGFA trailer/party mix soon."
— Joe V. (4/5)
