Very Funny

About This Movie

So, 'Very Funny' is this experimental piece from '87 that really plays with the medium. It's got this wild vibe, using video colorizing and that classic u-matic tape that’s almost breaking apart. There’s no real narrative to grab onto, which might throw some folks off, but it creates this interesting atmosphere. The slow-mo effects and the way they edit movement—it's like watching a dance that’s been sliced and diced. It’s a different kind of humor, sort of abstract, but intriguing if you’re into the artistic side of things. The interpretations of the title alongside the music track add layers that you might not catch on the first watch.

This film is a rarity, often overlooked in the broader conversation of '80s video art. It tends to circulate in collector circles primarily on VHS, with few known copies in pristine condition. The scarcity combined with its unique approach to video as an art form makes it an intriguing piece for any collector focused on experimental cinema or the evolution of video technology.
