Written by 15 year olds..for 15 year olds???.

Why VHS???? ffs...

Characters half dimensional, no rhyme or reason for anything they do

Each 'story' was pointless and ended... pointlessly

No reason for this to be 'found footage' AT ALL

Gratuitous everything - swearing, penises, boobies...blood

How this was ever given the go ahead is embarrassing...and there is a sequel *SMH*

If you love movies, horror/thriller etc AVOID!!!!

I wouldn't wish this 90ish minute tripe on my enemy and you have no idea how much that is saying..

Maybe you haven't seen many horror movies then....

Hey it's ok..just needed to vent after the time waste but each to his own...thankfully there is a place for everyone's opinion

It's an okay movie. I am a big fan of anthology horror films like Creepshow, Tales From the Crypt, Trilogy of Terror, The House That Dripped Blood, etc. Anthology films are my favorite horror subgenre so I couldn't help but have a soft spot for this film. I do realize it was kind of trashy and mindless but it's still rather entertaining. It isn't a horror classic by any mean but still worth watching 2 or 3 times.

[–] Skylightmovies 8 years ago

Oh yeah! I love those movies too!
But from memory they had a connecting thread and each story was 'complete'.
I could be wrong though, there are always a few holes in these things (Loved Asylum btw)

Guess I was hoping for more, my bad

[–] ElectricWarlock 8 years ago

Yes, they do all have a connecting thread except for Trilogy of Terror which is only the three stories. I love the anthology format so much that I'd be satisfied with almost any horror movie that follows it. Though this film isn't one of the best examples of an anthology horror movie, it doesn't pretend to be anything except mindless, trashy entertainment and that makes it more fun. I can see why it wouldn't be for everyone, though.

Yeah, I enjoy a good horror anthology.

You are sin.

[–] carpathianwolff 8 years ago

Trilogy Of Terror is awful... almost as bad as the V/H/S franchise

[–] ElectricWarlock 8 years ago

I disagree but okay. Whatever you say.

[–] mgreen9715 7 years ago

You were apparently miserable watching it but stuck around for the entire thing?

I hate dickheads like you.

@mgreen9715

How old are you?

Only an immature *** living in an echo chamber would write accusatory oneliners before even trying to work out the permutations of events that would make his/her retort unworthy.

I have some time at the moment.

Did it occur to you that I might be with friends/family who chose to put it on because they heard some ok reviews? Sometimes it is worth taking a chance with people you respect.We discuss its merits and have laugh.

And count yourself lucky because I have ceased to reply to

dickheads like you

for (see quotes) this very reason.
You are only capable of pigeonholing and incapable of respectfully questioning and stimulating debate.

You'll need to look up the last word
