In a conversation with Digital Trends, the directors and producer of VHS/99 talk about their movie, late '90s horror, and the future of the Shudder franchise.
2022 has been the year of horror, with a number of original theatrical movies like Smile, franchise reboots like Scream, and legacy sequels like Halloween Ends topping the box office chats and delighting fans of the genre everywhere. Streaming is no different, with Hellraiser on Hulu and Orphan: First Kill on Paramount+ finding their audiences in living rooms across America.
Joseph Winter : For “To Hell and Back,” we wanted to find something that maybe could set ours apart from the other shorts. We shot in Utah because the landscapes are really unique there. Joseph Winter: The actual shooting location was really, really small. Also, if you’re there during the day, it’s pretty mundane. But at night, it photographs differently. It’s just one little canyon with some side valleys, but with the right cameras and at the right time, it can be a vast hellscape.
I think a lot of credit should be given to our creature designer Troy Larson, who is just so amazing. He brought a lot of style and personality to each of the creatures he created, but I think creating the landscape was paramount for us. Just as scary but in a totally different way is “Gawkers.” A large part of why it’s so effective is how real it feels. I honestly believed I was watching found footage from two decades ago, because the young male protagonists looked and acted like teenagers from 1999.
Josh, you joined the VHS franchise with 94 as a producer. V/H/S/99 is the fifth one in the series. What is it about this one that is different from the previous versions?
