A Los Angeles police chase after a deranged ice cream truck has captivated the attention of the whole area. Dozens of fame-obsessed teens flock to the streets with their video cameras and camera phones, hell-bent on capturing the next viral video. But there is something far more sinister occurring in the streets of L.A. than a simple police chase.
A sequel so slapdash and ineffectual that its army of directors-six of them total, counting the poor sucker whose contribution got axed-might well be accused of intentionally burying the franchise.
Though hardcore fans of the series will no doubt walk away at least somewhat satisfied by Viral's offerings, it definitely skimps out on horror in favor of more playful and loose genre riffing.
As a collective, there's great, good and average to be had here. It's always a risk run with these anthologies, but the audience is there for them and Viral is a good addition to the series.
VHS: Viral fractures its format with gluttonous camera work, excessive CGI, and pandering sentiments that are more preachy than legitimately frightening.
After much white noise and other loud sounds along with annoying picture fluctuations, the individual horror segments begin. None of them are impressive.
