    Starring Rider Strong, Noah Segan and Giuseppe Andrews

    There’s a raunchy John Hughes Bizarro World-like quality to Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever. Noah Segan’s John is the stereotypical geek akin to a Cameron Fry in Ferris Bueller’s Day Offor Anthony Michael Hall in Sixteen Candles. You can see the natural progression from The Roost, as the story structure is essentially the same, just with a slightly bigger budget and marginally better actors (Segan and Giuseppe Andrews are notable standouts). The film’s costume, set, and production designs referen...

    West’s first feature film opens on fictional television show Frightmare Theatre, a grainy black and white 1970s B-movie telecast similar to ahorror movie-of-the-week style program similar to Elvira’s Movie Macabre. The Horror Host (played by Tom Noonan) welcomes audiences before introducing a college thesis-esque flick reminiscent of 90s cult horro...

    Starring Joe Swanberg, Sophia Takal, and Kate Lyn Shiel

    West’s unsettling chapter in horror anthology filmV/H/S is a non-essential entry for some but a surefire must-watch for any found-footage horror aficionado. The film’s frame narrative follows a gang of criminals who break into a house to recover a mysterious video cassette for an unknown employer and get way more than bargained for in this 2012 found-footage horror classic. V/H/S/ was directed in collaboration with other indie directors like Godzilla vs. Kong’s Adam Wingard and Joe Swanberg,...

    Starring Joe Swanberg, Gene Jones, and Amy Seimetz

    West returned to found-footage horror in this biting satire on the abrasive investigative practices of Vice journalism against the grim reality of doomsday cults. After receiving a letter from his sister, a photographer accompanied by a small news team travels to Eden Parish—a remote utopia whose idyllic sensibilities hide sinister motives. The Sacrament was West’s first true found-footage horror feature in this Jonestown Massacre parable. Veteran character actor Gene Jones plays Father, a Ji...

    Starring Ethan Hawke, John Travolta, and Taissa Farmiga

    Set in the Old West, Ethan Hawke stars as Paul, a high plains drifter traveling to Mexico who wanders into the town of Denton and runs afoul of the wicked riff-raff that plague the forgotten mining town. A film that blurs the murderous vengeance of theJohn Wick franchise with the quirky melodrama of a pulpy Western novelette, Red Dead Redemption and the movies of Quentin Tarantino — absurdist, campy, and darkly comedic, In a Valley of Violence is a loving homage to the grim Italo-Westerns of...

    Starring Ray Sullivan, Reggie Cunningham, and Sean Reid

    Made over seven days, comprised of minimal dialogue, and costing approximately $10,000, West’s second feature film was a concerted push into a new and uncharted homage territory. A backwoods psychological thriller likened to The Blair Witch Project meets The Deer Hunter or Deliverance, in this brutal survival horror picture from 2007. Relentless, claustrophobic, and unrelenting, Trigger Man’s low-budget shaky-cam aesthetic adds a nuanced layer of realism rarely seen in modern blockbuster thri...

    Starring Sara Paxton, Pat Healy, and Kelly McGillis

    Sarah Paulson (who famously replaced Kimberly J. Brown in the maligned Disney Channel Original Movie Halloweentown 4: Return to Halloweentown) stars as Charlie, an asthmatic who spends her days and nights searching for paranormal activity with her partner in crime and fellow ghost hunting enthusiasts Luke (Pat Healy), but like all of Ti West’s characters, they get way more than bargained. Set in present day New England, the film follows two lowly employees of the once lavish Yankee Pedlar Inn...

    West's early directorial work includes the 2001 short The Wicked, and feature films The Roost (2005), Trigger Man (2007), The House of the Devil (2009), The Innkeepers (2011), and The Sacrament (2013).

    • Katie Rife

    • The House of the Devil (2009) The House of the Devil is West's most elegantly constructed film, taking inspiration from muted '70s proto-slasher mysteries like Black Christmas and combining them with the blunt, brutal flashes of violence seen in his early work.
    • X (2022) After a decade of bold but uneven experiments, X re-established West as a major force in the indie-horror world. Set in the swinging '70s and centered on a group of would-be pornographers secretly filming an XXX movie on a farm owned by an uptight older couple, and with its Texas Chain Saw Massacre influence in tow, X is a slasher movie with more on its mind than most.
    • Pearl (2022) Pearl and X are companion pieces, which makes it difficult to judge either as individual films. Each has different things going for them: Pearl, which delves into the bloody origin story of X's wicked older villain, is a psychological character study that doesn't play by any of the genre rules that X does so well.
    • V/H/S "Second Honeymoon" (2012) Don't think too hard about the digital logistics of West's segment in the original V/H/S. It might spoil what's otherwise a pretty perfect found-footage horror short.
