V/H/S/2 hit VOD last week and this clip is one of the reasons everyone is talking about it. You can find the iTunes and Apple TV link here. Other outlets carrying it should also include Amazon (link link here), AT&T UVerse, Charter, Comcast, Cox, Google Play, Playstation 3, Sudden Link, Time Warner Cable, Verizon Fios, VUDU and Xbox Zune. There’s also a theatrical rollout set for July 12th.

The clip below (via Machinima) is from the Gareth Evans and Timo Tjahjanto segment – “Safe Haven” – and I can’t help but grin with delight whenever I see it. What follows these events is “off the hook” as the kids might say.

In the film directed by Simon Barrett, Adam Wingard, Gareth Evans, Eduardo Sanchez, Gregg Hale, Jason Eisener and Timo Tjahjanto, “Inside a darkened house looms a column of TVs littered with VHS tapes, a pagan shrine to forgotten analog gods. The screens crackle and pop endlessly with monochrome vistas of static—white noise permeating the brain and fogging concentration. But you must fight the urge to relax: this is no mere movie night. Those obsolete spools contain more than just magnetic tape. They are imprinted with the very soul of evil.” Be sure to write your review here!! READ MORE

V/H/S/2 (S-VHS)

Posted by EvanDickson on June 06, 2013 @ 1:52pm

Inside a darkened house looms a column of TVs littered with VHS tapes, a pagan shrine to forgotten analog gods. The screens crackle and pop endlessly with monochrome vistas of static—white noise permeating the brain and fogging concentration. But you must fight the urge to relax: this is no mere movie night. Those obsolete spools contain more than just magnetic tape. They are imprinted with the very soul of evil.

From the demented minds that brought you last year’s V/H/S comes V/H/S/2, an all-new anthology of dread, madness, and gore. This follow-up ventures even further down the demented path blazed by its predecessor, discovering new and terrifying territory in the genre. This is modern horror at its most inventive, shrewdly subverting our expectations about viral videos in ways that are just as satisfying as they are sadistic. The result is the rarest of all tapes—a second generation with no loss of quality.

‘V/H/S/2′ NOW On VOD! Here’s An Exclusive New Look…

My mind is still spinning is disbelief that we already have V/H/S/2 for you guys. This is 2013, so Magnet Releasing decided to get you this insane sequel as quickly as inhumanly possible. While it’ll also be in theaters on July 12 (please check it out if it’s near you), the found-footage anthology is now available on various VOD platforms including iTunes (link here), Amazon, AT&T UVerse, Charter, Comcast, Cox, Google Play, Playstation 3, Sudden Link, Time Warner Cable, Verizon Fios, VUDU and Xbox Zune.

We’re extremely proud of the first V/H/S, but we definitely took this in a new direction. To compare the two would be like comparing apples and oranges; the first was an experimental project, while V/H/S/2 (still S-VHS in my mind) is a something that we purposely made more humorous, with a furious pace. Again, we’re aiming to give you guys a good time and not trying to “fool” you into believing this is real. Grab some popcorn, a few friends, and enjoy the ride – and then return here to write your reviews. We want to always learn and get better because we make these for you. Thank you all for the continued support here at Bloody Disgusting. We love you.

This latest tape features the works of Gareth Evans (The Raid) & Timo Tjahjanto (Macabre), Eduardo Sanchez (The Blair Witch Project, Lovely Molly) & Gregg Hale, Jason Eisener (Hobo With A Shotgun), Adam Wingard (You’re Next, A Horrible Way To Die) and Simon Barrett (You’re Next, A Horrible Way To Die), the latter of which will be making his directorial debut on the film.

Check out an exclusive new look at Gareth Evans and Timo Tjahjanto’s disturbing “Safe Haven.” I can almost guarantee you’re going to love it…

While V/H/S/2 is scheduled to hit VOD platforms on June 6th, you should be aware that basically means MIDNIGHT tonight. If you’re on iTunes/AppleTV, my experience dictates that it’ll be out just a little after 9PM on the West Coast (with the theatrical rollout set for July 12th). Outlets carrying it should also include Amazon, AT&T UVerse, Charter, Comcast, Cox, Google Play, Playstation 3, Sudden Link, Time Warner Cable, Verizon Fios, VUDU and Xbox Zune.

Yesterday I hopped on the phone to talk with directors Adam Wingard (“Clinical Trials” segment) and Simon Barrett (“Tape 49″ segment) to talk about their work on the film. They’ve been making movies like You’re Next and A Horrible Way To Die together for years now so it’s no surprise that they collaborated here as well (Barrett wrote both segments). We also talked a bit about their follow-up to You’re Next, The Guest. Check it out below! READ MORE

Hopefully you guys enjoyed our V/H/S anthology enough that you’ll insert our next collection of tapes when V/H/S/2 tracks you later this year.

In the film directed by Simon Barrett, Adam Wingard, Gareth Evans, Eduardo Sanchez, Gregg Hale, Jason Eisener and Timo Tjahjanto, “Searching for a missing student, two private investigators break into his abandoned house, which contains 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.”

[Random Cool] Man With Camera Eye Probably Hasn’t Seen ‘V/H/S/2′ Yet!

While you guys haven’t seen V/H/S/2 yet, I’m wondering if a screening of Adam Wingard’s segment might give Canadian Filmmaker Rob Spence pause before going ahead with his plan to have a working camera for an eye, though I suppose odds are slim it will actually lead to a supernatural encounter.

Per Unbelievable Facts, “[Spence] damaged his right eye in a childhood accident and is determined to replace it with a digital camera. “Team Eyeborg” has just succeeded in fitting Spence with an artificial eye containing a working LED – a step towards a camera-containing synthetic eye.”

Right now, the LED records visual information and sends it to a computer. But it sounds like the ultimate goal is to set up a configuration that not only records information, but allows Spence to see stereoscopically again. Obviously I think this is a super cool endeavor and I wish Spence and his team all the luck in the world. I also hope this new eye doesn’t cause him to see too much.

Memento Film Acquires International Sales Rights To ‘S-VHS’

Paris-based Memento Film International has picked up international rights to found footage horror picture S-VHS, following its premiere in the Midnight section of the Sundance Film Festival last week, reports Screen Daily.

The picture is the sequel to V/H/S, which had members of the audience fainting in the aisles when it premiered in Sundance last year. News of deal follows Friday’s announcement that WME, which represented North America, had sold the picture to Magnolia which also distributed V/H/S.

“We’re already big fans of the first one, which was super scary and smart,” said Memento head of international sales Tanja Meissner.

“This one takes it to another level. The talent of the directors involved and the new orientations on the found footage exercise makes this second installment a sure bet for theatrical releases around the globe.”

S-VHS is produced by The Collective, Salient Media and Brad Miska and Tom Owen’s Bloody Disgusting. The portmanteau features segments by horror maestros Adam Wingard, Simon Barrett, Eduardo Sánchez, Gregg Hale, Timo Tjahjanto, Gareth Evans and Jason Eisener. READ MORE

[Sundance '13] It’s Official, Magnolia To Press Play On ‘S-VHS’!!!

Category: Movies / News

Bloody Disgusting’s S-VHS, the latest V/H/S project, had its world premiere Saturday night at Park City’s Library Center Theatre during the Sundance 2013 Film Festival. It was followed by a wave of great reviews – a much more unanimously positive reception than last year’s outing. And then, like last year, a deal was made within days to bring the film to the big screen. It’s being reported via Variety that Magnolia Pictures, who scored V/H/S out of the 2012 fest, has acquired the second tape for limited theatrical run, alongside ultra VOD via Magnet Releasing. The announcement was held here until it was official.

“Our goal is to make each sequel better than the last, unlike any horror franchise ever,” Brad told me via text adding “We know that’s a bold and nearly impossible task, but we’re trying our best to deliver quality horror that we can be proud of.”

The first movie followed a group of students hired to break into a desolate house to find a lost VHS tape, paving the way for the movie to go into a series of found-footage stories directed by up-and-coming genre filmmakers. The new movie, starring Adam Wingard, Kelsy Abbott, Lawrence Michael, Levine Hannah Hughes and L.C. Holt, follows a similar structure, with a pair of investigators discovering a tape while looking for a student. READ MORE

S-VHS, the latest V/H/S project, had its world premiere last night at Park City’s Library Center Theatre during the Sundance 2013 Film Festival. When I woke up this morning, I was pretty thrilled to find that my twitter feed was filled with glowing chatter about the film, some of it even from critics who didn’t like the original V/H/S all that much.

Now, we are NEVER going to do an official review this film on this site. But that doesn’t mean I’m not gonna share what other people are saying. The general consensus is that this is a much more solid film than the original (some are saying it’s leaps and bounds better). It’s definitely shorter, gorier and bigger.
