V/H/S/Beyond

Stream on Oct. 4

In the seventh series and ninth overall film within the V/H/S collection, titled V/H/S/Beyond, we encounter a science fiction horror anthology movie shot in a found-footage style. This film centers around six distinct tapes, each offering glimpses into a chilling sci-fi-infused landscape of terror and suspense. The broader narrative arc of the franchise revolves around the unsettling VHS tapes and their powerful grip on the unsuspecting individuals who view them.

In most scenes of the movie, each story can be watched independently. However, hints suggest that one common villain links all these stories together and is responsible for the videos. The upcoming version includes segments from Jordan Downey, Christian Long, Justin Long, Justin Martinez, Virat Pal, Kate Siegel, and Jay Cheel. V/H/S Beyond will be available to stream on October 4.

Daddy’s Head

Stream on Oct. 11

Under the guidance of Benjamin Barfoot, the Shudder original titled “Daddy’s Head” unfolds a heartfelt tale. The story centers around young boy Isaac (Rupert Turnbull), who is grappling with the impending loss of his father. With the recent demise of his mother as well, he finds himself under the care of his stepmother, Laura (Julia Brown). Both of them reside in the seclusion of a vast countryside estate. As Laura wrestles with her own sorrow and the challenges of parenting on her own, she and her stepson gradually drift apart.

As unease builds, Isaac starts noticing chilling and disturbing noises that reverberate throughout the house. Soon after, he comes face-to-face with a grotesque being whose visage strongly resembles his deceased father. When he attempts to alert the adults nearby about the threat, they brush off his fears as the product of a mourning child’s overactive imagination, which could potentially be fatal for everyone involved. Tune in to Daddy’s Head on October 11.
