V/H/S/85 Queens Natasha Kermani and Gigi Saul Guerrero on adding their distinctive voices to the iconic horror anthology series

V/H/S85 is an absolute blast of gore, laughs, fright, and mayhem.

I’m not going to lie and say that Screams of a Winter Night is some long, lost horror anthology classic. It isn’t. But the film has so much go-for-broke, let’s-put-on-a-show charm that it’s not a huge deal that a lot of this doesn’t end up working particularly well.

More hit than miss, season two of Creepshow is an enjoyably wicked and gorily goofy hoot.

V/H/S/94 is a gruesomely disquieting good time. I loved it.

Clever, inventive and consistently amusing, The Mortuary Collection is one of the best horror anthologies I’ve ever seen.

Scare Package would be a rather decent horror anthology if only it would stop calling attention to how silly and unserious everything is.

Less than 12 months later, producers/writers/directors Simon Barrett and Adam Wingard have managed to cajole another group of talented filmmakers to take their crack at the concept, and results are, to be perfectly frank, close to astonishing. V/H/S 2 doesn’t just improve upon the first film, doesn’t just take note of its missteps and mistakes, it quickly enters the pantheon as one of the great horror anthologies ever made.

While V/H/S is a wildly uneven ride, for those willing to take a seat on the rollercoaster the hypnotic horrors found within are undeniably worthy of discovery.
