Review of V/H/S/85

V/H/S/85 (2023)
7/10
Solid entry to a cult classic franchise
9 October 2023
So while it's not exactly perfect it's a very solid entry to the franchise that I think can now safely be categorized as a cult classic. With basically every previous entry there is a trend where some of the stories are abysmally bad and others are excellent, the same formula is followed here but as per usual what is missing from storylines is made up for with blood, gore, violence and nudity.

While this won't garner any praise from critics, for us fans who like it, we like it enough for them to keep churning out a new entry every year or two and that's good for me. One thing that I wish they would do is clean up the video quality a bit. I like how they purposefully ad in all classic VHS screen static but watching what looks like less than 360p for a couple hours does get quite daunting. There are ways they could keep the nostalgic effects from VHS and make it easier on the eyes.

7/10, overall very recommendable for fans of the genre, especially fans of the franchise.
