To me, this movie is perfection.

Save your money for something good and enjoyable

Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Having watched VHS and VHS 2 on a whim late one insomnia fueled night, and with no prior knowledge of them, I was pleasantly surprised by both. So had fairly high hopes for round three. Unlike the first two there were no good segments in this collection, not one. I love horror movies and have sat through many howlers in my time (I have seen all the Howling films) but this may well be one of the worst as it had such potential. The plot (what there is of it in these films) was ridiculous and made very little sense. The acting was really sub par too with no real convincing character development. When character development was attempted it seemed really forced and irrelevant. Such a sad finish to what started out as quite an original and entertaining trilogy. I wonder if they will make a fourth and redeem themselves?

I'm a big fan of the first two installments of VHS. This one is so disjointed that it doesn't even relate to the first two movies. Many times throughout the movie you lose the found footage feeling and it reveals itself as another crappy attempt at horror. The mystery of the ice cream truck is the only thing that kept my interest. What a disappointment at the end. Alien genitalia, skeletal devil worshipers, and the worst excuse for a magician with seemingly unlimited power - that's what you'll see if you choose to suffer through this 81 minute snoozefest. Pass on this one. It's garbage. Watch the first 2 again if you need a VHS fix.

VHS2 is one of the best horror films I've seen in recent memory. It tightened the overlong editing of the first movie and added genuinely creepy moments. I was looking forward to watching VHS: Viral after seeing VHS2, because I thought they'd gotten a solid pattern down. But no.No, instead you get skateboarding teens looking "totally rad" while fighting a group of cultists (seriously.) And then, after fending off the angry mob, the 15-year-old boys skate home.VHS: Viral offers four stories: the magician story, the multi-universe story, the aforementioned skateboarding brats yarn, and a wraparound that ties all these vignettes together. These stories all stink except for "Parallel Monsters," which is good enough to warrant its own film.If you can, watch "Parallel Monsters" without wasting your time with the rest of this sequel.

I really enjoyed the first two films. A lot. I went into this expecting to be mildly entertained but I was horribly wrong. It felt like an R rated feature length episode of "Are You Afraid of the Dark".I won't break it down into great detail. Mostly because it doesn't really deserve that level of attention. It doesn't even deserve this review but the masses must be warned.It was so bad.I won't spoil it but there was a part about magician cloak battles with horrible effects. There was a wraparound that was okay...ish.Then the ending credits came. Usually the best part of a horrible movie. Where you can let out a sigh of relief that all of it is finally over. But not VHS Viral. It bends you over & kicks you one last time. ( I had a much better analogy but I feel like it would be inappropriate by IMDb standards ) The fans of the previous films would probably still be sticking it out with this film, through it's entirety because they're waiting for the signature Death Set credits sequence. BOOM! Wrong baby! You get weird techno dance tracks to a nauseating light show.& that was VHS Viral. Writing this review has reminded me so much of how I wasted an hour & a half of my life on it, that I'm now changing my rating from 2 to 1.Don't watch this... ABCs of Death 2 was way better.
