VHS Massacre Radio is releasing two films on Amazon Prime February 12th 2019. Land of College Prophets (A backyard superhero film in the Troma tradition) and Everything Moves Alone (A comedic-drama in the vein of Garden State and Clerks). These are largely forgotten films from the video store era. Although Prophets was available through Netflix (DVD), Blockbuster and Movie Gallery at the time it has been for the most part unavailable on premium streaming formats for the last decade. Everything Moves Alone was shot in the late 90's and never really had a proper home video release but rather played briefly in the New York City theaters back in 2001. Tom Seymour talks about the history of the films and gives us updates on VHS Massacre 2!
