Friday 12th July, London, UK: Less Tech More Life is delighted to share the first teaser and poster for VIDEO VISION, a queer romance set in a RetroTech body horror. Officially Selected for this years Pigeon Shrine FrightFest, the film will celebrate its UK Premiere on 24th August at the iconic horror festival.
Directed by Michael Turney, the film stars Andrea Figliomeni and Chrystal Peterson.
When an old VCR mysteriously shows up at digitizing facility Video Vision, it starts affecting employee Kibby (Andrea Figliomeni) in strange ways. Meanwhile an unlikely romance with a trans man (Chrystal Peterson) has Kibby’s head in the clouds until she’s brought to her knees by the supernatural force that’s slowly taking control of her body and mind. When Kibby and Gator investigate the VCR’s origins they discover she has unwittingly unlocked the dark dimension of Dr. Analog.
“Whether it’s media formats, gender or the passage of time, Video Vision is a story of transition. The setting is New York City which has often changed but never escapes its history. As the VHS villian Dr. Analog says, “All of time is touching and I feel you”. If we don’t hold the hand of the past it will leave us behind in the present. I’m so thrilled to be a part of FrightFest and screen this love story turned techno-nightmare to an audience that appreciates nuanced horror.” said Michael Turney, Writer, Director & Producer.

That’s a really cool trailer. It reminds me of something Ada Hoffmann would create.
