The latest installment in the found-footage franchise is coming this fall.

The Shudder Original V/H/S/85 premieres on the streamer October 6. It features segments directed by David Bruckner (HELLRAISER, THE NIGHT HOUSE), Scott Derrickson (THE BLACK PHONE, SINISTER), Gigi Saul Guerrero (BINGO HELL, CULTURE SHOCK), Natasha Kermani (LUCKY, IMITATION GIRL) and Mike Nelson (WRONG TURN). The synopsis: “An ominous mixtape blends never-before-seen snuff footage with nightmarish newscasts and disturbing home video to create a surreal, analog mashup of the forgotten ’80s.”
