V/H/S Region Locked for UK Distro

Good news for our friends in the UK looking to sink their claws into the Sundance smash V/H/S (review here)… Screen Daily reports that Momentum Pictures has acquired all UK distro rights!

The directors are Adam Wingard (You’re Next, A Horrible Way to Die, Pop Skull), Simon Barrett (You’re Next, Dead Birds, Read Sands), Ti West (The House of the Devil, The Roost, The Innkeepers), David Bruckner (The Signal), Joe Swanberg (Silver Bullets), Glenn McQuaid (I Sell the Dead), along with Radio Silence, two of whom were part of the YouTube sensations known as Chad, Matt and Rob (Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Chad Villella).

Magnolia Pictures’ genre label Magnet Releasing picked up US and Canadian rights during Sundance with an eye toward a fall theatrical release.
