MonsoonVision is a curated movie experience where discovering new gems you’ve never heard of and celebrating the best of VHS cheese ‘n sleaze is the goal. It’s a nostalgic recreation of the good ol’ days where horror hosts would introduce you to the craziest shit you had ever seen. So grab some popcorn, pop in your (non-existent) tape, and settle in for MonsoonVision!
