Hi everybody,
I saw the first two V/H/S films and I love them. I wanted to just see out of curiosity about what everyone's opinion is of the V/H/S films. Not only that but within these films, where do the tapes keep coming from? Who is making these tapes and who/why are people collecting these tapes with scary and horrific images on them? And where is the FBI in all of this? Let alone News broadcastings. How is this not creepy? http://anythinghorror.files.wordpres...abduction2.jpg |

I really enjoyed both movies, although I'm a fan of artsy/moody stuff like this. I think anybody looking for an old-style EC ironic twist in each story will probably be disappointed but if you like stuff like David Lynch or long, lingering shots of creepy weirdness then they're really neat movies.
As for the tapes, I think of them as kind of being like snuff movies - stuff that's circulated by collectors and traded between like-minded individuals. Before the Internet made everything super-accessible to anybody, there was an entire underground of people sharing tapes (ala MST3K's instructions) or audio recordings (like the Shut Up Little Man tapes) people would distribute and share between each other. I kind of see it as being something like that, kept ''off the grid'' to avoid others finding about them.
