V/H/S 94 (2021) Movie review spoiler free

The fourth installment of the V/H/S franchise is here. This American found footage anthology horror film follows a police SWAT team who come across a sinister cult and their VHS collection. Available to watch on Shudder.

The overarching plot follows a brutish police SWAT team who stumbles upon a sinister cult compound and its collection of VHS tapes.

Official plot

The film of 1 hour and 40 minutes is divided into 5 segments: Holy Hell by Jennifer Reeder, Storm Drain by Chloe Okuno, The Empty Wake by Simon Barrett, The Subject by Timo Tjahjanto, and Terror by Ryan Prows.

My opinion

Of all the four films of the franchise this is the one that feels more legit. The way that is filmed and special effects are able to mimic to perfection how a VHS film from 1994 would look like today. Sometimes the camera is even out of focus and glitches, making it more real.

The stories are good with a lot of gore, strange events, and body horror. After the bad reception that had V/H/S: Viral this one is able to bring back the franchise. Only time will tell if a sequel would come.
