About
If you like gritty anthology horror with tapes, escalating dread, and moments of shocking violence, V/H/S/2 should hit the mark; Not for you if you want subtle scares, less gore, or steadier found-footage viewing like Blair Witch.
Pros: brutal horror stories; standout cult segment; tense found-footage vibe | Cons: inconsistent shorts; lots of shaky footage; very heavy gore
