I really like the 'V/H/S' series. The first two were so creative, and often creepy. The low-budget look and feel had this horror movie charm about it that made the series special. Not the case with 'Viral'. None of the three segments are good. They don't fit together, nor carry over the style of the previous films. Two of them even have nothing to do with this new viral theme. The wrap-around segment is the worst. It left me frustrated and wanting the movie to end. And it's only 80 minutes, including credits! Worst of all, there are absolutely NO scares. The first half of the first two stories are decent. That's about all the positive I can give. 'V/H/S: Viral' is a huge disappointment. Sadly, I recommend skipping it.

The first two V/H/S films kind of gave a kick in the pants to the "found footage" genre by making it into a sort of anthology - people stumble upon a stash of hidden tapes, watch a few of them (involving everything from a zombie outbreak, monsters, cults and even aliens) and has a wrap-around story where the owner of the tapes comes back to take what is rightfully theirs. The individual stories are often a mixed bag, but the overall effect turns out pretty good.
V/H/S Viral takes things in a different direction. As the title implies, the videos this time aren't stumbled upon, but rather part of the sensationalist viral video movement. The wraparound story involves an ice cream truck driving along L.A. causing mayhem wherever it goes while a young man desperately tries to figure out …

I was really forward to this movie, but it ended up not what I wanted it to be.
V/H/S: viral is about a big viral video in order to launch their "careers" instead find themselves becoming part of the latest Internet sensations - with fatal consequences.
Before I start this review I have seen the other V/H/S movies and to me I thought those films was actually really shocking but still fun to watch, and when I heard this movie was coming out I was looking forward to it, and the trailers got me excited for the film, and after seeing the film... am a bit disappointing. This is a found footage movie and you know the camera is going to be all over the place, but in this movie the camera moved around so much that I couldn't see a damn thing and that annoyed me so much, because in the …
