Something Weird Video is an American publisher of video tapes and DVDs, based in Seattle, Washington. They specialize in exploitation film, particularly the works of Harry Novak, Doris Wishman, David F. Friedman, and Herschell Gordon Lewis. SWV videos are available on demand to Comcast subscribers.[1]
Among the series of titles within their library are "Kid's Commercials From The Golden Age Of Television", "Hey Folks It's Intermission Time", and "Campy Classroom Classics".
The owner of the business, Mike Vraney, was inspired by his teenage job as a theater projectionist. His love for the obscure films that never made it to video prompted him to transfer hundreds of ancient reels of film to VHS and DVD.
Distributors of Something Weird titles include:
- Odeon Entertainment in the UK
- Siren Visual Entertainment in Australia
