A24 thought 'V/H/S: SCP' could tap into another internet community, but that same community isn't happy about the studio's plans.
The ‘V/H/S: SCP’ Movie Doesn’t Involve the Actual SCP Foundation
Why This Matters
A24's planned 'V/H/S: SCP' aims to mine the SCP Foundation's internet horror mythos, but the actual SCP Foundation community isn't involved and isn't pleased. It's a reminder that studios chasing internet-native IP often run into the messy realities of open, collaborative, community-owned creative projects.
Key Takeaways
- A24 is developing 'V/H/S: SCP' without involvement from the real SCP Foundation.
- The SCP community has pushed back on the studio's plans.
- Adapting crowd-created internet horror raises thorny ownership and goodwill questions for Hollywood.
