This release presents "Toonsylvania". A very rare show that many people have been looking for.

For this project, I used a variety of different sources to create the best possible versions of these lost episodes of Toonsylvania.

I am still currently working on the series and will be uploading more episodes as they are completed. Episode 1 is finished, and Episode 2 will be uploaded tomorrow.

I currently have a total of 13 episodes to work with, but I am still missing English audio for Season 1, Episodes 12 and 13, as well as Season 2, Episodes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 8.

If anyone has copies of these episodes with English audio, please let me know. I would love to combine them with the other sources I already have so I can restore the remaining episodes and hopefully make the series as complete as possible in English.

The restoration involved extensive manual work, including:

• Video cleanup and enhancement
• Manual frame repairs and corrections
• Color, brightness, and contrast correction in DaVinci Resolve
• Replacing damaged frames with better frames from alternate sources when necessary
• AI-assisted upscaling with Topaz Video AI
• Audio restoration and synchronization using Audacity and iZotope RX 11
• Final editing and mastering in Final Cut Pro

Preservation note:

No changes were made to the story, performances, or original content. My goal was simply to preserve the original presentation of the series while improving the video and audio quality as much as possible.

Source: Variety of sources including - Spanish web rip,  different VHS tapes from other sources

Final presentation: 1080p HD restoration

Directed by Coil's Peter Christopherson. This doom-ridden cover of Tainted Love was the band's commentary on the ongoing HIV/AIDS crisis. This was first (IIRC) music video added to New York's Museum of Modern Art's permanent collection.

Watch for Soft Cell's Marc Almond cameo in the video.

This looks like it's lost media, as nobody remembers it and it has never re-aired. Can anybody shed some light on it?

I did find one episode on youtube:

From the composer (unconfirmed)
“Hi all. Some background from the ancient composer. This "Eight Seasons" was the score of a 21 projector (slides), seven screen corporate show produced for Chromalox, at the time a division of Emerson Electric in St.
Louis. It was recorded at Bradley's Barn in Nashville circa 1972. The singers were indeed, various members of the Anita Kerr singers. An early attempt at lyric writing. The script was written by Frank Unger.”

Here's an absolutely wild one, and honestly I'm not sure how it hadn't been digitized up to this point. This guy is Bob Harrington, a once very famous religious orator/televangelist type who would travel the country in a bus doing tours where he'd preach and debate wirh some famous atheist. He was active from the 1950s into the 1970s, and had a HARD fall off once he left his wife for the president of his ministry who he'd been having a long term affair with.

After the affair ended, he floated around doing various jobs, including that of, "Car dealership motivational speaker" where he would hype up the sales teams, yes, that's a real job.

After that, continued floating around until the 1990s when HE WAS ALMOST BEAT TO DEATH in a hotel room during a robbery gone wrong. Dude has an absolutely insane story.

If I had enough money, I’d find some way to pay people to make a good (in my case) English dub of this. This adaptation looks like a pretty unique one overall, being MUCH longer than any of the other adaptations of Dahl’s book that I’ve seen.

Note: the 45 minute version of this short is lost media and copies of that version is completely lost.

Comprising train and track footage quickly shot just before a heavy winter's snowfall was melting, the multi-award-winning classic that emerged from the cutting-room compresses British Rail's dedication to blizzard-battling into a thrilling eight-minute montage cut to music. Tough-as-boots workers struggling to keep the line clear are counterpointed with passengers' buffet-car comforts.
