V/H/S/ 2 is raw and rough-edged and rude. It is also, for the hardcore horror fan, a total blast.

Overview
Inside a darkened house looms a column of TVs littered with VHS tapes, a pagan shrine to forgotten analog gods. The screens crackle and pop endlessly with monochrome vistas of static white noise permeating the brain and fogging concentration. But you must fight the urge to relax: this is no mere movie night. Those obsolete spools contain more than just magnetic tape. They are imprinted with the very soul of evil.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Less is not necessarily more in this slimmed-down collection.
There's only so much shakycam and shrieking a person can stomach in one go.
After a lackluster start, V/H/S/2 shifts into a higher gear -- and vastly improves over its 2012 predecessor.
V/H/S/2 is likely to be as popular with fans as its predecessor. It certainly earns that right.
