Review of V/H/S (2012) by Horcrux2007 — 30 Oct 2014
I thought every segment was excellent, and they were all unique and insane in their own way. The first segment, Amateur Night, was just **** crazy, and it really set up a good tone for the movie. The second segment, Second Honeymoon, tones it down, but I thought this one was the most disturbing.
It's the only one without the supernatural in it. This segment felt like a snuff film, which makes it more disturbing. The third segment, Tuesday the 17th, ratchets it up again with a sort of supernatural slasher.
This segment is my personal favorite. The fourth segment, The Sick Thing That Happened to Emily When She Was Younger, was the scariest segment. This one was presented through a Skype conversation, and it really reminded me of one of those "REAL GHOST CAUGHT ON TAPE!!!" videos.
The final segment, 10/31/98, was the flashiest and the most fun; however, I felt this was the weakest segment. There was too much going on so that the audience doesn't really know what to be scared of.
The frame narrative was also very creepy too because some stuff would move around in the background that you don't really catch on the first viewing.
