THE AGFA MYSTERY MIXTAPE VAULT is a 2-disc, 500-minute odyssey that collects eight feature-length VHS mixtapes from the crackpots at AGFA—including two that have only ever been available theatrically.

Light your black candles and start the chant! Culled from 16mm prints found in Something Weird’s attic, SMUT WITHOUT SMUT: SATANIC HORROR NITE is an exclusive feature-length mixtape curated by the Lucifer-worshipping maniacs at the American Genre Film Archive (AGFA). Best viewed during the witching hour at a haunted drive-in, this mixtape features “Smut Without Smut” versions of six Satan-themed features, as well as trailers, commercials, and ephemera from the vaults. WATCH! Demon killers wearing makeup in the style of the band KISS! SEE! Sacrificial rites performed on kitchen tables! OBSERVE! Credits like “Co-starring Raquel Belch!” Dreamy, outrageous, and filled with naked people wearing velvet capes, SMUT WITHOUT SMUT: SATANIC HORROR NITE is a spicy treat for those souls who are brave enough to jump into the fire.

Rescued and restored 16mm gems from a neglected genre: the classroom drug scare film. From doped-up drag-racers to spiders on speed, the best of the bunch are collected and presented.

A full-length mixtape celebrating the wildest shot-on-video and direct-to-video trailers from AGFA’s video dungeon, released both theatrically and on home video.

In the 1990s, Something Weird Video gifted humankind with HEY FOLKS! IT'S INTERMISSION TIME—a series of six magical VHS compilations that preserved vintage movie and drive-in ads. HEY FOLKS! IT'S THE INTERMISSION TIME MIXTAPE! (an exclusive feature-length mixtape from the AGFA team) is a loving tribute to those cathode-tube-fueled days.

An original co-presentation by AGFA and Vinegar Syndrome! Beneath the dumpsters of 1970s America, a netherworld of “adults only” horror movies lurked in the gutters. But what if these movies were less about the smut and more about the horror? SMUT WITHOUT SMUT: BIZARRO HORROR NITE is hardcore horror movies with the hardcore removed. In other words, the parameters of reality will never be the same again. WATCH! Argento-esque gore killings in skid row apartments! SEE! Bigfoot in his most “natural” habitat! OBSERVE! Credits like “Art Direction by DeSade!” Dreamy, hilarious, and filled with plastic vampire fangs, SMUT WITHOUT SMUT: BIZARRO HORROR NITE is the most unforgettable party you’ll attend this year. That said, we cannot be held responsible for any lasting trauma.

Bret Berg from AGFA shows off the greatness of R-rated movie trailers.

It’s a movie & music memorial celebrating the patron saint of weird! Get ready for a Rock ‘n’ Roll rumble! Thrill-Hungry, always Reckless and Willing! The Gangs and Go-Go Girls Who Go TOO FAR! Mad Doctors! Mayhem! Girl-Crazed Monsters & Goofy Gorilllas! Can You Take It?! We DARE You To Sit Thru It All!

There's nothing dreamier than the moment when the lights go down and the show begins. Now imagine capturing that feeling for 77 minutes of concentrated bliss. Exploding from the vaults of the American Genre Film Archive (AGFA), THE CULT OF AGFA TRAILER SHOW is a sequel to THE AGFA HORROR TRAILER SHOW . . . and AGFA's wildest mixtape yet. Meticulously constructed by the mad scientists at AGFA to resemble an otherworldly night at a mall multiplex, this compilation features rare trailers, commercials, and ephemera—all of which were preserved and scanned exclusively for this project.

A 60-minute compilation of trailers and snipes for the 1964 film Santa Claus Conquers the Martians.

In the 1980s and 90s, no psychopathic maniac was more popular than Jason Voorhees. So it makes perfect sense that any kid with access to a camcorder would film their own Voorhees-inspired epic . . . even if it meant lighting themselves on fire with a homemade blowtorch. AGFA and Bleeding Skull! are proud to present THE F13TH FAN FILM MIXTAPE -- an awe-inspiring compilation of the best-of-the-best in DIY Voorhees tributes from Jason’s biggest fans. Underage driving! Cameos from Michael Myers! Illegal usage of songs by The Beastie Boys! Featuring digest versions of our favorite full-length rippers, unseen trailers, and deranged clips, THE F13TH FAN FILM MIXTAPE is a valentine to the greatest horror franchise in history. And also teenage lunatics everywhere.
