Artist Spotlight: Roxanne Benjamin

“[In found footage] you always get 70 minutes of nothing happening and then 20 minutes of awesome, so we just wanted to cut to the 20 minutes of awesome for each one of them.” - Roxanne Benjamin on the V/H/S series

Roxanne Benjamin is among the new filmmakers featured in our recently opened exhibit Scared to Death: The Thrill of Horror Film. She’s the evil genius behind such films as Southbound, the V/H/S series, and the all-female directed XX.
