RetroVision Theater Presents The Dog Factory 1904

If silence is truly golden, then you are going to love this little diddy from 1904. From the good people at IMDb; A brief vaudeville-style demonstration of a "Dog Transformator," a machine that instantly turns dogs into sausages, and amazingly, sausages back into dogs. Enjoy and share


RetroVision Theater Presents Off to the Bloomingdale Asylum 1901

We know we are digging deep to bring you some of these classics from the past, but in our view classics never go completely out of style. Enjoy this Melies trick film, that shows the world according to minds of some madmen being carried off to nutsville. If this short masterpiece don't get a laugh out of you, then you may very well be crazy yourself. Enjoy
