A note about the films on this DVD:
In addition to giving people a chance to see some of the early films from the festival, one of our motivations for going back and producing DVDs of classic films was to preserve these films for posterity. A lot of the early films were made on film or magnetic video tape, and were submitted to the festival on VHS or DV tape. Magnetic media degrades over time, and picture and sound quality loss is inevitable.

Richard Corben's short film "Dagon,"Christian Matzke's "Nyarlathotep," and Jon Cazares & Joseph Scrimshaw's "Antiques Roadshow: Arkham" to the deluxe treatment with extensive video correction, audio noise reduction, and repair of broken and glitchy frames. The aspect ratio of Michael Granberry's "From Beyond," was fixed and it will be presented as never before, even at the festival, in it's correct 4:3 ratio!
