Amy’s V/H/S Wishlist

Coralie Fargeat (Revenge)

The only director I can think of who could rival Timo Tjahjanto’s level of blood.

Chad Crawford Kinkle (Dementer)

Because I would really like more people to know about this guy.

Sophia Takal (Always Shine)

You’ll notice I put Always Shine there and not the Black Christmas remake, and that’s because Always Shine shows how good Sophia Takal can be. She’s already acted in a V/H/S segment, let’s let her redeem herself by directing a really scary one.

David Amito & Michael Laicini (Antrum)

Let’s see what else these two can do

Wraparound: Cristobal Leon & Joaquin Cocina (The Wolf House)

We all know the frame stories in the V/H/S series are garbage, so let’s really change it up and make it animated.

Join us next time when we will be covering Censor - currently streaming on Hulu.

Synopsis: James LaSombra is a former cop mourning the loss of his wife and son. When a young friend of the family goes missing James is drawn into a mystery involving an urban legend about The Empty Man, a shadowy figure who can be summoned by blowing in an empty bottle on a bridge. But there is more to the disappearance than he first suspects, and more to the legend of the empty man than he realizes.

Since there’s apparently no way a franchise could have too many sequels, we’ll be checking out the newest addition to the Paranormal Activity family, Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin.
