Already burned out on your tenth Buffy rewatch?  Bank account hurting from those brutal “early access” rental fees? Well, the good folks at American Genre Film Archive have the cure for what ails you, fair genre fan! 

Exhumed from the archive’s own storied vaults, the AGFA MYSTERY MIXTAPE series are hour-long compilations of video store era goodies. Packed with old school interviews, commercials, trailers, and all manner of vintage schlock, these loosely-themed, lovingly-curated mixes are a nostalgic blast. Best of all? You never know what you’ll see next! 

AGFA MYSTERY MIXTAPE #1: DIDN’T YOU USED TO BE SATAN? was a big hit, and #2 is sure to knock you on your ass when it drops this Wednesday, April 22nd. AGFA knows that times are tough out there, which is why they’re offering a brand new killer compilation every week as a “pay-as-you-want” download. The bare minimum is less than a dollar, but the non-profit will gladly accept larger donations from those dedicated to keeping genre cinema history alive and kicking!

Head over to American Genre Film Archive for a taste of MYSTERY MIXTAPE #1, and get your grubby mitts on #2 when it hits on Wednesday, April 20th!
