Lost and Found Video Night Guide - Volume 1 - Dann
Disclaimer: I have been asked to comment regarding the nature of this review. I do hereby proclaim that I was working alone in this endeavor and I (Joe) claim full responsibility for any and all of the content read and/or viewed in this review.
The Lost and Found Video Night volumes contain some of the most inappropriate, creepy, insane, and uncomfortable bits of media gathered from all over creation. Each volume horrifies, intrigues, and in some cases, grosses us out, mostly because of the sheer lack of context from each clip. Transitions are jarring and difficult to follow as you move from one obscure piece of media to another. I spent many long nights identifying and cataloguing each clip in the first volume. I believe I did a fine job with the exception of one or two things I couldn’t identify. The time code format is hours:minutes:seconds (hh:mm:ss).
00:00:00 - 00:05:22 White trash yuppie air drums to Metallica's Sad But True.
00:05:23 - 00:08:04 Artsy fartsy music video by Crispin Glover called Clowny Clown Clown.

00:08:51 - 00:10:39 A very special video birthday surprise for Steve Via.
00:10:40 - 00:14:59 Stereotypical tourists wear stupid clothes and lip sync to Don't Worry, Be Happy in a film booth at an Amusement Park.

00:19:38 - 00:21:28 Clip from Gorgeous Ladies Of Wrestling (GLOW) TV show complete with song and intros. Features fight of the century between Spanish Red and The California Doll.
00:21:29 - 00:21:46 Wrestler Awesome Mike Awesome tries to perform a power slam on the ref and breaks the turnbuckle.
00:21:47 - 00:21:48 Awkward looped clip from the aforementioned film Don.

00:26:33 - 00:28:09 Elvis Presley drunk and (probably) drugged out of his mind, trying to sing Are You Lonesome Tonight? ...TRYING.
00:28:10 - 00:30:15 Crispin Glover plays "Groovin' Larry" who, in turn, is playing Olivia Newton-John in a talent show in the short film The Orkly Kid.
00:30:16 - 00:31:43 A death metal band "wocks and wolls" at a Group Home much to the alleged delight of the residents.

00:33:21 - 00:33:51 Clip from Once Upon a Potty (For Him) explaining how to...use the potty. For babies and the elderly alike.
00:33:52 - 00:33:59 Gah! MORE of Steve Via's birthday surprise!
00:34:00 - 00:35:11 Japanese pop idol, Kimutaku (Kimura Takuya) of the band SMAP gets launched into the air with a human slingshot.
00:35:12 - 00:35:21 Mel Gibson stars in a Japanese car commercial driving the 280 PS Boxer Master.

00:47:43 - 00:49:34 The Spiders, a Japanese surf rock band, play on amidst intercut clips of go-go dancing women and one very unexcitable crowd.
00:49:35 - 00:51:09 Opening sequence to the aforementioned film Don. In this scene, Don arrives to a deal that goes bad...for his clients! *EXPLOSION* *TITLE*
00:51:10 - 00:54:48 Disturbing clip from the film La Bête (The Beast). It's like Deliverance only with a monster and slightly more Victorian Era Chords.

01:13:28 - 01:16:01 An informative and educational animation explaining the merits of homosexual culture on our world today.
01:16:02 - 01:16:04 Awkward looped clip from the aforementioned Jerry Lewis scene.
