What order should you watch Vanishing Son?

For most viewers, release order is the recommended way to watch Vanishing Son. This is how the story was crafted and revealed to audiences — earlier films seed details, callbacks, and twists that pay off in later entries. Watching in release order preserves those reveals and matches the pacing the filmmakers intended.
