Holibusters video · New releases
Now on the shelf
Sample films we made to show the style. Your film is cut the same way, from your own photos and videos.
Every film here is a sample. The families, names and trips are fictional. The shelf films are made from stock video footage from Pexels and the Cornwall trailer from licensed stock photos. Everyone shown is a model, not a customer.
The wall Three films, three made-up families
Each is a short sample in the style of a rental. A full Trailer runs about 3 minutes, a Standard about 8 and an Epic about 20.
-
The Hartley family (fictional)
A winter weekend in the woods: a sledge contract nobody signed, the Snowball Incident, hot chocolate diplomacy and a Lifetime Achievement in Sledge Sitting.
-
The Delaney cousins (fictional)
Four cousins, one beach: Operation Sandcastle, a record-breaking ice lolly, a litter patrol and the Holibusters Awards at sunset.
-
The Ferraro family (fictional)
A weekend under canvas: a pop-up tent that did not pop, three guitar chords, marshmallow quality control and one very exciting pigeon.
Every sample has a smaller phone version too. Music credits are at the bottom of this page.
Behind the scenes What goes into every film
Stills from the Cornwall sample. Every film gets these moments, built around your family.

The opening title
Your family name and your film's title on the big screen, like a proper rental tape.

The starring cast
Everyone gets a freeze-frame and a role. You choose the titles, or tell us the stories and we'll suggest some.

Chapters
Your days and places, in order, so the film tells the story of the trip.

Captions and gags
The moments you were laughing at, timed properly. Kind jokes only: nobody gets roasted.

The awards
A ceremony nobody asked for. Everyone wins something.

The running joke
Tell us the thing that kept happening. We bring it back at the end.

End credits
The whole cast, the supporting seagulls, and the music, credited properly.
Your holiday. The blockbuster.
Yours stars your actual family, cut from the photos and videos you send. We never generate pictures of your family. Launch offer: free Trailers for the first 10 families.
