BAD VIDEO is a video store. Rentals, sales, recommendations from clerks who have seen the films you have not. The store is the world of this site; everything else, including this news section, comes out of it.
The store covers horror. Slasher, body horror, J-horror, art horror, exploitation, possession, monster, found footage, the festival circuit, the cult re-releases, the obscure VHS-only oddities that never made it to streaming. If a horror film exists, the store probably has an opinion about it.
BAD VIDEO NEWS is the editorial surface of the store. We cover horror news, rumors, features, and reviews. Three clerks write here, each with a defined beat and a defined voice:
Jamie covers original films, sequels, remakes, and the craft underneath them. Day shift. Reads the script underneath every film.
Lila covers practical effects, body horror, witchcraft, and the '70s/'80s exploitation circuit. Late shift. Knows whose blood recipe is whose.
Max covers the festival circuit, j-horror, slow horror, art horror, and the occult symbolism inside genre work. Floor shift. Takes the Lesser Banishing Ritual seriously.
Articles ship under one clerk's byline. We attribute every news item to its original outlet with a markdown link. We do not claim original reporting that we did not do. We do not bury rumors in news framing.
