They told you not to rewind. You did it anyway.
NEXT WEEK, sunburnt cinema returns for one final scorched season of sweat, sand, and magnetic tape decay.
This is VHS Summer V: The Boys of Summer.
Five episodes, five movies at a time, diving deep into the films that raised a generation…questionably. 

We’re talking suburban malls, sex pests, and sleepless summers, all through the warped plastic of a rental copy that’s seen too much.

Plus, we finish what we started: the final countdown of the 2000s box office kings, closing the book with 2009.

Every week, a new lineup. A new meltdown.
Press play… while it lasts.

INSTANT REACTION: Superman must reconcile his alien Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing as reporter Clark Kent. As the embodiment of truth, justice and the human way he soon finds himself in a world that views these as old-fashioned.

A group of survivors of the rage virus live on a small island. When one of the group leaves the island on a mission into the mainland, he discovers secrets, wonders, and horrors that have mutated not only the infected but other survivors.

INSTANT REACTION: Plagued by a recurring violent nightmare, a college student returns home to find the one person who can break the cycle and save her family from the horrific fate that inevitably awaits them.
