V/H/S Audience Reviews

GamerTab That was an excellent one.
SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
Hadrina The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
LouAbbott As of December 5, 2017, there are 288 IMDb reviews of this film. Almost everything written about V/H/S – the good, the bad and the ugly – is written. So, here may be a unique comment. No, I haven't read every review, but I'm still going forward. Hannah Fierman, who plays Lily, may have bigger eyes then Barbara Steele, "The Queen of All Scream Queens." Steele's most famous appearance is in the Mario Bava Italian Gothic film classic "Black Sunday." Also, is there a count of the number of times the F-word is in V/H/S? A record may be broken!! I wonder if George Romero saw this film? If he did, I'd bet he'd like it.
CinematicSyndrome seriously its not worth it. I could end the review right here as its not even worth reviewing as one already knows what to expect form 6 different found footage recordings in one movie with each one supposedly offering different things but is mostly boring and creepy at best. If not a story i at least expected good scares but its actually not at all as scary as i expected or as people here are telling you it is (i was actually laughing as to wtf is happening).Verdict: not at all worth watching
craigh01 Well my one big complaint is the camera-work (the "found footage" genre) was making me dizzy. I was so happy at the parts where it became normal instead of jumping all over the place. So if that's going to bother you, you should probably skip it.Not really all that good, more of a collection of weird short stories. It held my interest though. It was good enough to keep my attention to the end. I wish they would have expanded on some of the stories a little more. They could have made it, say, 3 short stories and gave some explanation of what was going on.So, it could have been an 8 if it (a) get rid of the nauseating camera-work (b) expand on some of the short stories and give some background as to "why"? or "what were they doing"? (c) make it longer to give time to give more background. I bet the writers actually didn't know why, they'd have to put a lot more thought into it! Also, parts of it are quite gruesome, so if you don't like that, it would be another reason to skip it. It's not a stupid torture movie though. I don't mind a little gore if there's a reason and story behind it. Also it's not a slasher movie with some guy chasing pretty girls around with a knife. Leave that for the teenagers I guess.
amkulm While the stories are fairly standard, I'd argue that this is one of the best executions of found footage to ever come from the horror genre, with dynamic, realistic and non overwhelming cinematography and logical justifications for why the characters would bother to have cameras. Worth watching.
