In this episode of Horror Hour with the Hanna's, we dive into V/H/S/Halloween (2025), the latest entry in the V/H/S anthology horror series arriving just in time for October. Released on Shudder and produced by Bloody Disgusting, this episode explores a series of Halloween-themed videotape horror segments, each directed by a different filmmaker.
We’ll unpack the strengths: standout segments like “Kidprint” (directed by Alex Ross Perry), which has already drawn attention for its deeply unsettling psychological horror grounded in realism. We also discuss other vignettes such as “Home Haunt”, “Fun Size”, “Ut Supra Sic Infra”, “Diet Phantasma”, and “Coochie Coochie Coo”—each bringing a distinct flavor of dread.
We’ll also talk about how V/H/S/Halloween fits into the larger V/H/S franchise—how it continues the found footage tradition, how it leans into Halloween iconography, and how it both leans on and subverts anthology horror tropes. While not every segment resonates, the film has been praised for balancing camp, gore, and horror tone. On Rotten Tomatoes, reviewers note it “knows precisely how to handle the switch in tone” between silly and dark.
If you’re into anthology horror, found footage vibes, or Halloween-flavored frights, this episode is for you—grab your VHS stack and tune in.
