Shudder’s ninth V/H/S entry links four new segments and music-video interludes into a 98-minute found-footage horror where sound and rhythm become the threat. Directors include Ernest Dickerson, RZA, David Moreau, and Renee Zhan; Flying Lotus, Tobias Forge, and GWAR supply musical pieces and a hellish wraparound.
V.H.S. Mixtape premieres on Shudder and AMC+ on October 9, 2026, and runs 98 minutes.
The anthology centers on sound and music as the mechanisms of horror, with four new narrative segments plus music-video interludes.
# What V.H.S. Mixtape is
V.H.S. Mixtape is the ninth installment in the V/H/S found-footage anthology series and will stream exclusively on Shudder and AMC+ starting October 9, 2026. The film runs 98 minutes and organizes its shorts around a single formal idea: music, rhythm, and sound as the source of terror.
# How the film is structured
The movie stitches together four narrative segments tied together by music-video interludes and a hosted wraparound. Each segment treats audio or rhythm as the vector that haunts, possesses, or destroys people on screen. Interludes by musicians provide connective tissue between the shorts and establish a music-forward tone throughout.
# Who made it
Directors and contributors named for V.H.S. Mixtape include:
Screenplay credits are shared among Zoe Cooper, David Moreau, Ernest Dickerson, RZA, and Matt Landsman.
The anthology mixes cosmic horror, psychological suspense, and splatter elements. It emphasizes practical creature effects in at least one segment (the puppet piece by Renee Zhan) and uses sound design and music composition as central devices of dread. The presence of Jim Henson's Creature Shop indicates practical fabrication work on puppet-based effects.
# Release and festival notes
V.H.S. Mixtape had a festival premiere at Beyond Fest on September 30, 2026, at the Egyptian Theatre with a filmmaker and cast Q&A, before moving to Shudder on October 9. The release pattern mirrors previous V/H/S entries that debut at genre festivals in late September and reach Shudder in early to mid-October.
