The Kidd here...
Magnet Releasing is finally giving those of us who weren't at Sundance or SXSW a look at their horror anthology V/H/S, which is hitting VOD late in August before it finally comes around to theatres in limited release at the beginning of October. And, from this first red band trailer, I've got to say... I'm a little disappointed. Oh, no... not by what I'm seeing. The tease of the horrors to come from the film have got me psyched to see this film whenever I get to... but this is the type of movie that needs to be seen in a theatre with an audience dying to scream. Watching this at home by yourself or with your wife/husband or significant other can't possible be as good as seeing it in a packed theatre of people set to jump out of their seats. And, even when it does hit theatres, it drops the same weekend as FRANKENWEENIE, TAKEN 2 and SINISTER, which, depending on which Burton shows up, presents three really solid options to compete for your attention against V/H/S. This is a weekend before Halloween type of flick, and I wish Magnet had the machine to roll it out as such. In the meantime, see what you might wind up missing come October... or will have to settle for on your smaller screen shortly enough.
