weird Foreign stuff (pretty sure they're responsible for popularizing all those unauthorized '70s & '80s foreign remakes of Star Wars, Superman etc.)
I thought Mondo Macabro (first the book and then the label) popularized those, though maybe it was just the message boards I was hanging out in at the time (late 90s/early 00s) and it was more niche than I realized at the time.

Reading up on Mondo Macabro, I'm willing to bet the Alamo crew were totally influenced by them.

I mean, a lot of the early Alamo aesthetic came straight out of '90s message boards and tape trading circles.
