Archive.org is a junkyard of abandoned media. The YouTube of videos made before YouTube. Let's sift through it!

Your Name Here (1960) is 1960s shitposting in industrial film form.

These are all on Archive.org, but I'm going to use YouTube links. Most of the old films are from the Prelinger Archives and A/V Geeks.

Holy crap is "Cipher in the Snow" in there?
This was easily the most bewildering film they showed us in elementary school.

A sad young no-friends boy steps off the school bus and collapses in a snow bank, dead.
The other kids crowd around and no one even seems to know his name.
School officials step in and determine he was abused by his dad, had no mom and was picked on relentlessly by everyone he came in contact with.

The lesson was being a miserable introvert can actually cause an otherwise healthy kid to spontaneously drop dead.
Kinda freaked me out and made me realize I needed to get out there and get some drat friends and quick.

Jim Henson's commercial work from before the Muppets is awesome and trippy even if his name being attached has kept them out of the public domain.

I'm glad these were before my time because something about them jut oozes menace in a way that creeps me out even as an adult.
