Lost Media Archive

Host of Springville's almost weekly ISMN - "Incredibly Strange Movie Night" since 2003. (Previously known as "Tapioca Night" circa 1993 in Ogden, UT). "ISMN" also takes place every last Tuesday at Brewvies Cinema and Pub in Salt Lake City.

FALL 2012 WAS OUR 10th ANNIVERSARY!!!

We are also founder of the world's first Troll 2 cast reunion (which they didn't want to mention in the documentary for some reason, making it look like it started in New York. I guess karma will catch up with them).

Currently we are showcasing Avant Garde, Experimental and Art Films for each letter of the alphabet. This is in response to those who have given us the stereo type of only showing "low budget bad movie trash" not worth their time. So in response we say, "You want high art? It can be just as bizarre, sometimes even more so, and even just as low budget."

No repeat films from the past allowed! (...unless it's a screening at Brewvies.)

LMA is a Utah-based collection of mondo/ kitsch/ cult/ ephemeral/ experimental/ historical/ obsolete/ forgotten/ unearthed audio-visual and textual documents. LMA is also a resource for those who cling to bygone media formats. The LMA was founded by Blair Sterrett and works together with loaf-i productions, the Free Form Film Festival and Salt Lake City Film Festival to arrange screenings, viewings, and concerts. The LMA also promotes and initiates the creation of new and unusual films, albums, performative projects, and book events. We accept donations of any and all projection, recording, and filming devices. When possible, we maintain these machines for use by recordists and filmmakers. (We now curate over 35,000 films.)

For more info, donations or to join the weekly email list, please contact B.C. Sterrett at bcsterrett@gmail.com. Thank you.

I often don’t feel trailers do films justice, and it also applies here.

Here’s the official full length trailer for “Incredibly Strange Creatures” (1963)
