Set in 1985, when the home video revolution is in full analogue swing, Video Nasty tells the story of three mostly-normal-but-kind-of-weird teenagers who go on an epic quest to complete a cult VHS collection. Instead, they get mixed up in a murder investigation, becoming chief suspects and public enemies.
The creators say: "The series is a deadly, deadpan comedy with a raucous, racy, retro flavour. An 80's throwback that is all about the hysterical world we live in today. Because we all love nostalgia but it's just not what it used to be."
