24 Films

About This Movie

So, 24 Films, huh? It's a curious piece by Jeff Keen, blending layers and layers—like a cinematic onion. Made in that experimental bubble of the early 70s, it’s packed with hand-painted visuals, animation, and a sort of montage style that feels almost chaotic but purposeful. Each short film feels like a glimpse into his mind, every frame a different exploration. The pacing can be erratic, which really adds to its charm, and you can sense the rawness in the practical effects. It’s the kind of viewing that challenges you, making you think about the boundaries of film as a medium. Definitely a unique artifact for any serious collector.

24 Films has a niche appeal among collectors due to its experimental nature and the obscurity of Jeff Keen as a director. Formats can vary, with some editions being quite scarce, especially the hand-painted versions. Collectors seem to appreciate the film’s distinctiveness, often seeking it out for the artistic experimentation it represents in that era of filmmaking.
