V/H/S Viral Blu-ray Review

Score: 62

from 2 reviewers

Review Date:

V/H/S: Viral's mixed quality, while featuring solid video and audio presentations, makes it a lukewarm addition to the series, worth considering for dedicated fans.

Video: 66

V/H/S: Viral's 1080p Blu-ray presents variable picture quality dictated by its found footage concept, with images ranging from sharp to intentionally murky across different camera types—security cams, GoPros, VHS, and digital—yet maintains good color saturation and deep black levels, reflecting accurate digital mastering and an average bitrate of 25.001 Mbps.

Audio: 61

V/H/S: Viral's Blu-ray audio, encoded in lossless DTS-HD MA 5.1, expertly blends engineered sound effects with intentional imperfections like pops and muffled voices to enhance the found footage realism. Despite occasional clarity issues, the surround effects and LFE deliver a dynamic and immersive experience.

Extra: 66

The 'V/H/S: Viral' Blu-ray extras offer a mixture of intriguing commentary and detailed behind-the-scenes featurettes, despite some polarizing content like Todd Lincoln's abstract 'Gorgeous Vortex'. Highlights include directors' discussions on the evolution of found footage, in-depth effects breakdowns in 'Dante the Great,' and engaging stunt and makeup insights in 'Bonestorm'.

Movie: 46

V/H/S Viral, the third installment of the series, delivers frenetic but uneven segments with 'Parallel Monsters' standing out for its inventive horror; however, the incoherent wraparound and muddled narrative detract from its overall impact despite some clever effects and intense action scenes.
