The premise
Unveiled through a made-for-TV documentary, five chilling tales of found footage horror emerge to take viewers on a gore-filled journey through the grim underbelly of the forgotten 1980s.
Horror Vault's take
Framed as a grainy made-for-TV documentary, V/H/S/85 delivers five separate found-footage horror stories excavated from the rotting corners of 1980s America. Each tape peels back a different layer of dread — from predatory cults to nightmare-inducing laboratories — united by a relentlessly grim, analog aesthetic. The anthology format keeps viewers constantly off-balance, never knowing what shape the next terror will take. It's a blood-soaked love letter to the era when VHS tapes carried secrets best left unwatched.
Content: Graphic Violence, Gore, Nudity, Female Frontal Nudity, Blood And Ritualistic Sacrifice, Gunshot Violence
