Critics Consensus

It's as scattershot as its predecessor, but V/H/S/2 rounds up enough horror filmmaking talent to deliver a satisfyingly nasty -- albeit uneven -- dose of gore.

Less is not necessarily more in this slimmed-down collection.

Guardian

There are some dull stretches here, but also some grisly instant hits: nasty, deplorable, vulgar and sometimes brilliant.

Rated: 3/5

Someone please give Gareth Evans lots of money to make amazing, violent, creative horror films.

Patrick Cavanaugh

The Wolfman Cometh

Pulls off the seemingly impossible by being an anthology that succeeds with nearly every vignette. Between the merits of each individual segment and the variety of horrors chronicled, it's arguably the highpoint of the franchise.

Rated: 4/5

Deep Focus Review

Admirable but uneven, as is often the case with such anthologies.

Rated: 2.5/4

Projected Figures

Though patchy and buggy, this multi-director found footage anthology sequel has "at least one that was the real thing."

A couple of investigators break into a missing students home only to find a collection of video tapes. Looking for clues to his disappearance, they view the tapes and discover the supernatural is real. Just like most anthologies, hit and miss. I particularly enjoyed "Safe Haven," in which a film crew visits a cult's compound in Indonesia. Overall, a fun horror film.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

🍅7.1/10 A lot like the previous one where there's one stand out and the rest are OK   Phase l clinical trials. I feel like this could be better, and they don't take it to its full vantage, and leads me to be confused and unsatisfied although it does contain some pretty fun sequences. 5.5/10  A ride in the park. A solid short that is disgusting and effective nothing much else to say, pretty standard, but that gut eating sequence alone is the highlight just the way that one biker girl looks after it feels so lifeless and unpredictably scary. 6.5/10  Safe haven. Now this is where it's at. just like how the first movie had amateur night for me the stand out Here is Safe haven a super graphic, and really creepy atmosphere gives Safe haven the title of my personal favorite segment of V/H/S/2. 9.5/10  Slumber party, alien, abduction. Bro I want to like this one more because those aliens are actually pretty freak but like it feels kind of cringe at points and that just holds it back quite a bit for me not a bad segment, but my least favorite of this movie. 5.5/10 grade B+

Para mi opinión personal V/H/S 2 es la mejor película de toda la saga, teniendo una trama principal bastante atrapante con un desenlace que impactan sobre la conclusión de la cinta y en los metrajes de VHS qué puedo decir, son la gran mayoría bastante a destacar como perturbador y las mejores son la de La Secta y la Abducción Extraterrestre, pero de las 6 películas que hay de la Saga destacó a esta como la mejor y la más sangrienta junto con V/H/S 94' y V/H/S 85'.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
