V/H/S/94 is a 2021 Found Footage anthology film featuring segments directed by franchise returnees Simon Barrett and Timo Tjahjanto, in addition to newcomers Jennifer Reeder, Ryan Prows and Chloe Okun. It follows 2012's V/H/S, 2013's V/H/S/2 and 2014's V/H/S: Viral, acting as a prequel/reboot to those films. A fifth entry, V/H/S/99, debuted on Shudder October 20, 2022 and a sixth film, V/H/S/85, released on the service in October 6, 2023.In the year 1994, a SWAT team unit and their cameraman raid a supposed drug lab only to find a sinister cult compound whose collection of pre-recorded material uncovers a nightmarish conspiracy. Upon searching, they find multiple horrifying cassettes: Holy Hell: The wraparound segment, wherein the SWAT team surveys the warehouse containing the supposed drug lab, only to find several televisions, mannequins, and dead bodies with their eyes gouged out, among other surreal and horrific occurrences. Storm Drain: News reporter Holly Marciano and her cameraman Jeff descend into their town's sewer system as part of a report on the "Rat Man", a creature of local legend that supposedly lives in said sewers. The duo end up finding the creature, only to discover far too late that it serves as the godhead for a group of homeless people and a deranged minister, who plan to use it to establish a new world order. The Empty Wake: Hailey, the new hire at Jensen funeral home, is assigned to host the wake of a man named Andrew Edwards, the service being filmed at the request of his family. After a long while of eerie silence, Hailey begins hearing noises coming from inside the casket, possibly signifying that Andrew may be alive. What's worse, a massive storm is brewing and the funeral home is chained up tight, leaving her with no possible way to escape as Andrew's reanimated corpse attacks her. The Subject: In Indonesia, Mad Scientist James Suhendra has been aspiring to create a functioning human/robot hybrid as a means of pushing the human body's limits, using kidnapped citizens as guinea pigs. He manages to successfully create two cyborgs: the hostile and mindless Subject 98, and the scared and docile Subject 99 (referred to by the initials "S.A." on a news report), whose cybernetics house a camera she sees through. When a squad of militarized police break in and murder James, Subject 99 manages to break free of her containment and seeks a way to escape the lab, all the while evading Subject 98, and the police officers who consider her a threat. Terror: The First Patriots Movement Militia, a group of extremist rednecks, are plotting to film themselves blowing up a local government building in a ploy to "purge evil from America". The secret weapon for their plan is revealed to be a captured vampire, who is regularly shot in the head and has his blood siphoned by the group, the blood itself revealed to be explosive when exposed to sunlight. While celebrating a successful test of the vampire's exploding blood, the group get drunk and accidentally release the vampire, and thus must work together to recapture it before it escapes. | |

And Then John Was a Zombie: A tornado apparently kills the zombified Andrew, but Hayley either becomes a zombie herself, or is possessed by his spirit, shambling out of the funeral home at the end of the segment. | |

Foreshadowing: Ronald and Tim bring up Andrew's face and head during their summary of his wake. This later comes into play when it's discovered that half of Andrew's head has been lopped off, and its eyes manage to spy Hailey, allowing the rest of his reanimated corpse to kill her. | |

Crapsack World: Moreso than the previous entries, all of the individual tapes all directly contribute to the overreaching narrative; meaning the world explicitly plays host to mutliple cults, vampires, zombies, and biopunk mad scientists to name a few. | |

| V/H/S/94 / int_2c1f1138 | comment |
He Who Fights Monsters: The commander proves himself to be a Killer Cop who is just as bloodthirsty as the Mad Scientist he was ordered to arrest, taking way too much zealous joy in taking down Subject 99 while Laughing Mad (though that could be excused as him having Go Mad from the Revelation following having battled Subject 98 and how his team became a Dwindling Party as he was A Father to His Men), prompting Jono, the Token Good Teammate of his team, to take him down like a mad dog. | |

Stylistic Suck: The wooden and unconvincing acting and stiff, gratuitously vulgar dialogue are very clearly intentional as a tribute to the low-budget underground exploitation films from this era that the wraparound segments are paying tribute to. | |

Among the menagerie are a human head with robotic spider legs, a man with a camera-mounted skull for a head and swords for arms (Subject 98), a woman with her head from the lower jaw up replaced with cameras and speakers and her hand removed so a modular arm cannon can be attached (Subject 99), and a woman who was still in the middle of roboticization (while conscious) who had most of her entrails replaced with machinery and an arm and foot removed. | |

Humanoid Abomination | |
| V/H/S/94 / int_851dda8f | comment |
Humanoid Abomination: The vampire, the "metaphysical superweapon" the militia claims to have acquired, is a man who is seemingly immortal, whose blood explodes in contact with sunlight, and who turns into a toothy-mawed creature when they fail to kill him on schedule. | |

Eldritch Abomination | |
| V/H/S/94 / int_8774fb47 | comment |
Eldritch Abomination: Raatma can barely be called humanoid, with a nightmarishly elongated head, acidic vomit and an apparent influence over its devotees. As per Chloe Okuno, it's of extradimensional origin and may not even necessarily be malicious so much as it is something that simply doesn't belong in this world, is not reacting well to its new surroundings, and happens to react to its discomfort in a way that has horrific consequences. | |

Tragic Monster: The vampire can easily be seen as one. After being confined to a small room filled with wooden crosses and getting gruesomely shot in the head on a daily basis, you can understand why he goes after the militiamen. If that's not enough, he tearfully begs for his life whenever he's about to be killed. | |
