-I'd give this at least 8.5 or 9/10. Delightfully unique and twisted story. Great acting. Beautiful slow-motion gore scene (you'll know it when you see it) and a bizarre ending that left me pleasantly surprised! Check this one out for sure!

VHS Viral:
-So disappointed in this one. I'd rank it a 5/10. In comparison to the other two, which i really enjoyed, this one falls pretty flat. Completely disjointed and hard to follow at times. The sketchy cam-work is annoying and none of the characters were likable. Maybe Dante the Great was the highlight of the film. Boring overall.

All Cheerleaders Die:
-This film was so messed up and a ton of fun to watch! I'd say it ranks around a 7 or 8/10, because it's super cheesy and about highschool cheerleaders. However, that being said, I totally loved this one and hope they make a second one too. I'd recommend this to horror fans who enjoy the random kinda entertainment.

The Den:
-At least 7.5-8/10. Very clever style of film, entirely shot with webcams. Engaging, well-written, but contains some plot-holes and some bad acting. I enjoyed this enough to recommend it.
I agree with you on All Cheerleaders Die and The Den; I have not seen the other ones and I need to check them out.

Somewhat "The Strangers" like another home invasion flick but even worse than that.

V/H/S: Viral (2014)



The most disappointed part was the main frame story. Most of the time didn't get what's going on & cared less & less about what's going on till the end. Among the other three segments...the first one, "Dante the Great" offers an interesting story but it was a bad & wrong idea to give it a found footage/POV treatment, IMO. 2nd one, "Parallel Monsters" had a fun & nice idea but compared to other good (or better) ones in the series so far it wasn't that much exciting or creepy. Last one, "Vicious Circles" wasn't much interesting & mostly ruined by those annoying camera placements (attached at the helmet of the teenage skaters).

Overall, the most lamest addition to this anthology series.

I agree with you on Torment. I really enjoyed The Strangers but this one seemed to lack quite a bit. I watched it out of boredom.

I still want to see Viral even though no one seems to give it very good ratings. I didn't hear anything good about the first two either but I ended up liking both of them.

B+
Awesome! I really want to see this and I love movies that involve mazes.
