This year’s FrightFest has been filled with endless joy. The fans, the films, the press and the fest staff have made the trip wonderful. But to experience the Duke Mitchell Film Club in person was really something special. Thank you Evrim Ersoy & Alex for the crazy cinematic cocktail!

We unleashed this at both #DukeFest and FrightFest so it must be something special, here's Kapitan Nemo with their 1986 Polish synth pop tribute to the VCR, with English subtitles for the first time ever. Get a case of Wideonarkomania now! youtu.be/73VaHyJrYIE

What a month August turned out to be for us, #Dukefest and FrightFest shows back-to-back after not being able to do anything since 2019, massive thanks to everyone that joined us at either event, we couldn't do it without you all! 1/

So what's next for us? Evrim Ersoy is off to MOTELX and then Beyond Fest, both of which he's been working on so hard all year. While Alex Kidd is back in the Duke archive working away on multiple projects at once. Our aim is to do #DukeFest again next year in 2023. 2/

In the meantime we've just started uploading the New York TV Archive Part 2 to our YouTube channel, maybe sure to keep an eye on it as we upload a new clip each day! youtu.be/MSygU9bqSpo
