Horror: VHS

The latest found footage horror series V/H/S is back with V/H/S Halloween. This is the eighth installment, and as someone who has seen all the VHS series, I can’t honestly tell you which ones are good. They’re pretty much all the same: random little stories with VHS special effects. Sometime it’s unwatchable, sometime it’s scary, sometime it’s goofy… you know what you’re getting when you watch a VHS film.

Magnetic Fields at Union Chapel, London (October 14th and 15th 2025)

The Magnetic Fields have kept a good thing going by taking their 69 Love Songs tour international.  This is, if the internet is to be believed, the 100th to 115th or so performance of 69 Love Songs in its entirety over two nights. I have now seen three of them. Pretty sure that puts me in the top five, or top two even, for number of shows seen by one person. I fancy myself a bit of an expert now. So, sit back and let me describe the show to you as someone who is practically in the band at this point.

Jonathan Richman at First Avenue (October 16, 2025)

Jonathan Richman returned to First Avenue with drummer Tommy Larkins for a phone-free night of unfiltered sincerity. Mixing new songs from Only Frozen Sky Anyway with old favorites, Richman danced between languages, laughter, and tenderness — proving again that simplicity, delivered honestly, can still rock a crowd.
