Victorville Film Archives
The Victorville Film Archives, or the VFA, is an organization created and operated by Gregg Turkington dedicated to the preservation of movies, primarily in the form of VHS tapes. It was founded by Turkington after his personal collection of movies was accidentally destroyed during the filming of Decker: Port of Call: Hawaii. It was acquired by HEI Inc. in 2020. Originally based in Victorville, California, the organization has since changed locations several times following the destruction of its original location, though it retains Victorville in its name. It is part of VHS.
Gregg was later seen expanding the archive into Selectavision VideoDiscs.[1]
