The trailer has been released for Jack Henry Robbins‘ upcoming comedy VHYES, which looks as if it was a film created especially for me. Shot entirely on VHS, this film involves a kid who decides to record home videos and late night TV over his parents’ wedding tape. It looks incredible.
VHYES premiered at Fantastic Fest 2019 and will be in theaters January 17th.
A bizarre retro comedy shot entirely on VHS, VHYes takes us back to a simpler time, when twelve-year-old Ralph mistakenly records home videos and his favorite late night shows over his parents’ wedding tape. The result is a nostalgic wave of home shopping clips, censored pornography, and nefarious true-crime tales that threaten to unkindly rewind Ralph’s reality.
A hypnotic narrative told through hundreds of criss-crossing vignettes and a mix of absurdist comedy, sincere drama, music, and just a touch of horror, this wholly original feature debut expertly walks the fine line between complete lunacy and total sincerity.
