About This Movie

Rewind This! is a fascinating dive into the world of VHS. It's not just about tapes; it's about how they reshaped culture, from DIY filmmaking to the way we consumed media. Johnson does a nice job weaving in interviews with collectors, filmmakers, and enthusiasts, giving you that nostalgic feel. The pacing feels right, balancing history and personal anecdotes, and there’s a warmth to it that’s hard to resist. Plus, you get a sense of the DIY spirit that defined small-scale productions back in the day. The DIY aesthetics come through, too, which feels genuine rather than polished. Definitely an interesting watch for anyone who’s spent time sifting through boxes of tapes at flea markets.

Released in 2013, directed by Josh Johnson.Features interviews with collectors and filmmakers.Explores the DIY ethos of home video culture.Includes a variety of archival footage and clips.
