What to Know

Critics Consensus

Consistently unnerving as it cycles through a series of shorts that are more treat than trick, V/H/S Halloween is one of the most purely enjoyable cassettes in the franchise yet.

Richard Whittaker Austin Chronicle Oct 3
It may well be the franchise’s best of the decade. Go to Full Review
Nick Schager The Daily Beast Oct 3
[Its] vignettes are uneven and occasionally repetitive and yet, at their best, deliver the sort of macabre mood and mayhem that make the series an enduring spooky-season pleasure. Go to Full Review

All of the bits are diverting enough, and even the weakest among them boast spooktacular effects, but only one of them leverages Halloween into something creepier than empty calories. Go to Full Review
Ian Bunting Daily Record (UK) Nov 7
Despite having a seemingly franchise-friendly theme, V/H/S/Halloween is one of the weaker films in the series. Go to Full Review
Jake Tropila In Review Online Nov 5
Business as usual at the V/H/S factory, a roller coaster of quality that threatens to topple over from its own shaky foundation. Go to Full Review
Sebastian Zavala Kahn Ventana Indiscreta Oct 31
3.5/5
It delivers three outstanding short films, one that could have been better, and thankfully, only one that didn't convince me at all. A pretty decent result, really. [Full review in Spanish]. Go to Full Review

Jarhed Ricardo S 14h No me vayan a juzgar pero es mi franquicia favorita de terror y definitivamente de todas las entregas , esta es mi favorita , me encantaron los cortos , todos para ser especifico , ya se volvió para mi una tradición esperar una nueva entrega de V/H/S en Octubre , me siento como un niño pidiendo dulces en Halloween. See more Devin a @Adevster8 Jan 5 This was far and away the worst VHS released....how critics could have ranked it that high is insanity....especially after releasing VHS beyond. It was like night and day. See more Kai H @timidbirb Dec 24 There are very great ideas for stories in this, but none of them executed well. See more Gabriel T @GabrielFagundes Dec 22 I watched it some days ago. I loved it, but I might confess that it is a bit forgettable. The first and the third stories were the best. I wasn't a fan of this franchise, but V/H/S Halloween was a great surprise for me. I wasn't expecting to like this movie See more TDP @Tdp204 Dec 19 Somehow, they released one worse than VHS Viral. This one had so much going for it, being set on Halloween, and yet all of them were extremely dumb. The baby one? Hasn't this been done before a thousand time and in this series. The soda one? We put ghosts in pop and it makes people explode. Real creative lol. The detectives and the ghost phone was an intresting concept that amounted to nothing besides cool props and prosthetics. The human candy one may have been the dumbest one they have ever done in the series. A flying bowl and dick candy... great. Plus the acting was awful, like a lot of these but this movie had a lot of it. Kidprint was an intresting concept that had good Halloween vibes but had some of the dumbest characters in any horror movie. The main character didn't even try to fight back and the kids just killed him which was hilarious. Dark theme, weird execution. Not bad tho. Haunted house one needs to be redone. The concept was done better in the first movie. 3/10 See more Jeffrey P Dec 15 I saw an article that said this was the best installment of the franchise yet, I don’t know about that but it didn’t disappoint See more Read all reviews
