Trailer #1
[YT]cAYX3P4lZSE[/YT]

The upcoming sequel, 'S-VHS' looks to be an augmentation of what we got the first time around. Bringing together the likes of Jason Eisner ('Hobo with a Shotgun'), Gareth Evans ('The Raid: Redemption'), and Eduardo Sanchez ('The Blair Witch Project'), 'S-VHS' has just seen the release of its first trailer. It's incredibly intense and hints at everything from zombies to alien abduction. Take a look at the trailer below and let us know what you think.

Searching for a missing student, two private investigators break into his abandoned house and find another collection of mysterious VHS tapes. In viewing the horrific contents of each cassette, they realize there may be terrifying motives behind the student’s disappearance.


'S-VHS' premieres this week at Sundance with a wide release soon to follow

Yes!

 

[Kane52630]

I'm actually surprised they finished filming and got a trailer so quick, it wasn't that long since the announcement.

Liked the first one and am excited about this one... so... the third one is gonna get called "Betamax" then?

Words from Sundance says its better then the last one http://www.slashfilm.com/s-vhs-revi...roves-on-original-in-every-way-sundance-2013/

[the directors] have taken the formula from the first film, streamlined it and pushed the envelope even further. What remains is not only a horror anthology better than the original, but proof positive this franchise has some serious legs.

This has me excited.

 

[Lasirius]

Hope this is good, I was really excited for the first one but it turned out to be crap for the exception of the last segment.

Agreed.

I was gonna ask you guys,, I put on VHS the other night from netflix... I turned the movie off after about 5 minutes.. I could tell it was just going to be very cold.. I keep on hearing about this film.. Is it worth it to watch?

It looks even better than the first one.

It's definitely worth a watch.

I'm going to take the good reactions with a grain of salt, seeing as the first VHS had a very similar reaction last year.

 

[Kane52630]

A new still

Awesome to hear. I didn't love the first one, but it was definitely an interesting watch.

 

[Donnie Darko]

VHS is one of the worst movies I have ever seen.

I MIGHT watch the sequel on netflix, but seriously, I just finished watching VHS, and it was god awful. Worse than Haywire and John Carter, even.

I was not a fan of either of these, but they hardly represent some extreme low end, even just for films from last year.

 

[Snow Queen]

This can't be real. It just can't.

 

[Rez]

The first was wildly uneven like most(all?) anthology films, the wraparound in particular was really weak and it pissed me off that one of the most talked about/praised moments of the film (the "oh snap!" camera reveal in Ti West's) was just stolen/identical to a bit from Lost Highway. The first and last segments were pretty awesome though, and the voyeuristic behavior that permeated the entire film that a lot of people found trashy and disgusting was very realistic and accurate. I don't know what all of these naysayers use their phones, cameras and computers for but pretty much everyone I know has naked pictures and sex tapes stashed around on every piece of technology they own.

 

[Majik1387]

Hopefully this one will be good.

"VHS 2 has maybe one of the best horror shorts I've ever seen." @scottEweinberg

 

[chaseter]

VHS is one of the worst movies I have ever seen.

I agree. It is an awful, awful movie. I caught it on netflix and it is one of the most stupid movies I have ever seen. I thoroughly regretted watching 5 minutes of it let alone 90 minutes or however long it was. I started fast forwarding through most of it.

Early review for "V/H/S 2" (looks like they dropped the "S-VHS" title).

http://www.aintitcool.com/node/61382

In short, he claims its superior to the first one and had more than one favorite segment.

 

[GENERAL RAAM582]

Is V/H/S a darker Creepshow? Different horror stories in one film?

 

[Mike_D202]

Yep, it's a "horror anthology."

 

[Mike_D202]

Another glowing review:

Spoiler

The cult segment seems to be the favorite
