The anthology horror movie V/H/S debuted at Sundance last year to brilliant early reviews, and almost a year later to the day, the anthology sequel, V/H/S/2, returned to Utah to equally promising praise.
The film has continued on the festival circuit in recent weeks, and with only a few more to go before its early VOD release, ahead of its theatrical rollout, Magnet have debuted the terrific and very red-band first trailer online.
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.
Adam Wingard and Simon Barrett return to the helm once more for V/H/S/2, and they’re joined by a new line-up of directors, led by Gareth Evans (The Raid), Eduardo Sánchez (The Blair Witch Project), Jason Eisener (Hobo with a Shotgun), Gregg Hale (Lovely Molly), and Timo Tjahjanto (The ABCs of Death).
Needless to say, this promises to be all kinds of awesome.
V/H/S/2 will be released in the US on VOD on June 6th, ahead of its theatrical release date set for July 12th. No word yet on when we can expect it here in the UK. Its predecessor was released on our shores a few months after its Stateside release, so here’s to hoping for a repeat performance, perhaps around Halloween. Whilst we wait for its arrival, here’s the great first trailer to set the tone. And remember, highly red-band in nature, so entirely unsuitable for work. Enjoy.
