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.November 20, 2014
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.November 18, 2014
[Its] pleasures barely compensate for the vapidity of V/H/S: Viral's sketches.November 28, 2014
I couldn't wait to hit eject on this whole jittery mess.October 17, 2014
Three playful yet thoroughly disposable experiments in short-form p.o.v. cinema.January 09, 2015
VHS: Viral fractures its format with gluttonous camera work, excessive CGI, and pandering sentiments that are more preachy than legitimately frightening.November 25, 2014

I credit it for really engaging with our culture's omnipresent voyeurism instead of just using it as an excuse to cut the budget.November 21, 2014
A film that contains some of the sloppiest, most ineffective filmmaking I've seen all year.August 23, 2016
Like any franchise, a third outing is difficult to pull off yet, and such is the case here, with few ample rewards to be found.
