We’ve said it before and, surprise, surprise, we’ll say it again, but we just didn’t find found-footage shocker V/H/S the horror masterpiece that others seem to have.

It was certainly effective in parts (notably the closing segment), but with the talent involved, it was more miss than hit.

There is no doubt though that the film became a word-of-mouth sensation, and that can only be a good thing for the horror genre.

Not surprising then, that before the original even gets a UK release this Friday, a teaser trailer has surfaced for the second instalment, S-V/H/S.

Suggesting plenty more scares without really giving anything away, the second batch of short tales features directorial talents such as Gareth Evans and Eduardo Sanchez.
