V/H/S Beyond, the latest installment in Shudder’s found-footage franchise, is finally out – and there’s one way you’re able to stream it for free.
The V/H/S series has produced some of thebest found-footage filmsever made. They’re comprised of short stories, boasting chilling sequences that still give me nightmares; V/H/S 2’s ‘Safe Haven’ and ‘Slumber Party Massacre’ are arguably its scariest segments, if you want a taste of what to expect.

Shudder took over with 2021’s V/H/S 94, a return to form after 2014’s disappointing threequel. It’s gone from strength to strength, and going by the reviews, the newest entry may be thebest horror moviein the anthology franchise to date.
That said, you should be! It’s dropping three other brand-new horror films this month: Daddy’s Head, MadS, and Azrael (starring Ready or Not’s Samara Weaving), as well as Russell Crowe’s The Exorcism.

V/H/S Beyond has an 85% Rotten Tomatoes score, the second-highest rating behind 94’s 90%.
AV Clubcalled it“one of the best films in the series, and an example of how much this franchise has left to explore,” while FandomWiresaidit’s “the most ambitious, cinematic, and consistent entry by a mile.”
