V/H/S

One of the best horror movies I've seen in awhile. I've enjoyed Rec 1/2, Cloverfield, Paranormal Activity (sequels are okay but don't do anything fresh), and non-horror found footage films like Chronicle and Troll Hunter. Found footage films have their fair share of detractors but this one does it quite well, even incorporating more technology into some of the stories. Genuinely creepy, shocking, and varied in each of the 6 tales it tells (each done by a different director). They range from slow burns to intense thrillers. Wouldn't want to say much more for spoilers, but there were some really clever scares in this film. A fantastic horror anthology.

8/10
