V/H/S/Halloween - Comments & Tips
I will ride or die for this franchise until the end.
Just something about these movies keep me coming back for me, and if there is any question about why this is so good, check out the "Fun Sized" segment... Hailey, poor sweet Hailey, that was fucking amazing!
I love the 80s retro vibes and even though this was a horror movie I have to say I laughed almost the whole movie.
Mean spirited and overly dark. Aside from two stories that were more cartoonish, it gave impressions of hating humanity. But somehow it still kept the laughs coming! You're laughing at the movie, though, never with it. The wraparound story was wasted potential.
As with most V/H/S films, there are ups and downs. This one has a couple stinkers, a weak frame narrative, two segments definitely worth watching, and one real stand-out. If you like the grab-bag of anthology horror, you'll find this a worthy addition to the V/H/S lineup.
3 Thoughts After Watching ‘V/H/S/HALLOWEEN’: 1. I was really looking forward to this. And I thought it started strong with that creepy ass arm holding a basket out the door, with that “cootchie coo” voice. So eerie. And one would expect a Halloween rendition of this series to be an opportunity for peak found footage stories. Well, the opportunity was missed here. 2. Normally, when I watch these, I expect the inevitable hits and misses. With this outing, I kept waiting for the next one to be a hit. Waited and waited. I personally don’t believe there was a single standout here. 3. IF there was a standout, it’d probably be “Ut Supra Sic Infra.” But for the most part, these stories were not fleshed out well, nor very smart. And forget the acting.
This is by far the absolute worst in the series. Beyond the series, this movie is just horrible! Stories and acting are absolutely atrocious!Watch VHS 1 or 2 instead.Don't bother!
