Yup, the home video horror is getting an outing on the format it homages so reverently. It makes sense too, as the found-footage set-up (a gang of crims film themselves as they raid a creepy old house, examining the videotapes they find there) is perfect for home viewing.

The logistics of such an exercise were far from easy, and by all accounts Momentum Pictures had to undertake considerable research to get big-box-sized tapes made up which include many nods to the glory days of rental stores. Getting hold of these tapes won’t be easy though. Only 300 numbered copies have been manufactured and Momentum are promising a unique V/H/S event in January at which lucky fans will be able to get hold of them.
