We’ve found even more tapes and will be bringing them all to Shudder in V/H/S/94, the fourth installment of Bloody Disgusting’s horror anthology franchise. The film will be a Shudder Original and will release in North America, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand later this year.
In V/H/S/94, after the discovery of a mysterious VHS tape, a brutish police swat team launch a high-intensity raid on a remote warehouse, only to discover a sinister cult compound whose collection of pre-recorded material uncovers a nightmarish conspiracy.
The new movie is being spearheaded by David Bruckner, who directed the “Amateur Night” segment of the first V/H/S which featured the breakout performance of Hannah Fierman as a succubus. Bruckner, whose feature The Night House was picked up by Searchlight Pictures out of Sundance for release this fall, is also set to direct Spyglass Media’s Hellraiser reimagining for Hulu. We’ve been a huge fan of Bruckner since he co-directed The Signal and also absolutely love his Netflix creature feature The Ritual.
Another familiar face is Simon Barrett, who helped create the V/H/S franchise and also directed the second film’s wraparound. Simon just saw the release of feature directorial debut, Seance, starring Suki Waterhouse, and also penned several classic horror films from Dead Birds to A Horrible Way to Die, You’re Next, The Guest, and Blair Witch.
Timo Tjahjanto, the Indonesian filmmaker who co-directed V/H/S/2 favorite “Safe Haven”, this time will be going solo with V/H/S/94. Tjahjanto became a horror name with his Indonesian splatterfest Macabre and also is behind two recent Netflix classics, The Night Comes For Us and May the Devil Take You, as well as Killers and Headshot. He’s also getting behind the camera for the James Wan-produced remake of Train to Busan for New Line Cinema.
We’re also incredibly excited to get to work with Chloe Okuno, who directed the phenomenal must-see AFI horror short “Slut” (watch it here). She’s an outstanding new voice in horror and has projects in the works with A24, Orion, and even just completed principal photography on Watcher for Spooky Pictures.
New tapes have been discovered since the initial announcement, with Chicago-based Jennifer Reeder taking the reins of the entire film’s wraparound! Reeder is best known among horror fans for her incredible arthouse indie Knives and Skin, released by IFC Films back in 2019. Reeder was also named one of 20 filmmakers shaping the future of cinema by the great Bong Joon Ho (Indiewire)!
Last and certainly not least is Ryan Prows, the madman behind the action-packed, ultraviolent, and off-the-charts cool indie Lowlife, also an IFC Films release. Get ready because Prows is about to blow shit up!
Filmmaking collective Radio Silence (Matt Bettinelli-Olpin, Tyler Gillett, and Chad Villella), like Bruckner, contributed to the first V/H/S film with their action-packed haunter “10/31/98”, and will also produce V/H/S/94. After directing the instant classic Ready or Not for Searchlight Pictures, the filmmakers will next see their Scream sequel in theaters next year.
We’re trying something a little different with the score as we’ve added Greg Anderson of the legendary drone metal band Sunn O))) and Southern Lord Records founder to the team.
Additional info & credits:
“The V/H/S series has been known for two things: its unbeatable lineup of filmmakers and its edge-of-your-seat terrifying found-footage stories,” said Craig Engler, GM of Shudder. “With V/H/S/94, the producers have upped their game—bigger, wilder, scarier than ever before. We can’t wait to unleash this new installment on Shudder members.”
“Thrilled seems like an understatement for just how stoked we all are to partner with Shudder”, said producer Josh Goldbloom. “We shot the film entirely during the pandemic building sets in hotels, conference rooms, and in the spirit of the series punk rock roots we even ventured underground into a sewer. Our team channeled the misery of this past year appropriately, so rest assured it’s the biggest, baddest, and most bloodthirsty batch of tapes yet.”
David Bruckner (Hellraiser) and Radio Silence (Scream 5) served as executive producers. Josh Goldbloom produced the project for Cinepocalypse Productions alongside franchise co-creator Brad Miska for Bloody Disgusting, with Kurtis Harder (Spiral).
Tom Owen executive produces for Bloody Disgusting. Studio71 and Zak Zeman also serve as executive producers. Michael Paszt, James Fler and Andrew T. Hunt of Raven Banner Entertainment negotiated the deal.
