Curated and hosted by The Onion‘s Joe Pickett and Late Show with David Letterman’s Nick Prueher, The Found Footage Festival celebrates the best recorded and discarded moments the duo have found on VHS at garage sales, thrift shops, and anywhere else people dump VHS tapes these days (this is not stuff you’ll find on YouTube). The guys return to Toronto and Montreal this week, and hit Ottawa for the first time, with a new show that promises to be full of “strange, outrageous, and profoundly stupid videos.” Awesome!
