'V/H/S: Viral' International Trailer Is A Barrage Of Horror

The second film in the V/H/S series really upped the ante with energy and pure visceral insanity, and now you can get your first taste of the third movie. V/H/S: VIRAL features segments from directors Nacho Vigalondo (Timecrimes, Extraterrestrial), Marcel Sarmiento (ABCs of Death segment "D is for Dogfight"), Gregg Bishop (The Birds of Anger), Justin Benson (Wrecked) and Todd Lincoln (The Apparition).

This first international trailer recaps the series, and then launches into a prolonged blast of horror images from the new movie. You won't know anything about story here — there's barely even a sense of the framing segments — but there's a lot that will make horror fans want to see the film. (And the official synopsis, which we've included after the break, does have story info.) Check out the V/H/S: VIRAL international trailer below.

Magnolia's genre arm, Magnet just announced that it will release the film. A date should be announced soon; expect it later this year. This is the first film in the series that won't debut at Sundance. Deadline has the trailer.

Fame-obsessed teens hell-bent on capturing the next viral video discover they are the stars of the latest internet sensation. V/H/S VIRAL is the third and most intense installment in the groundbreaking horror franchise from the world's top genre filmmakers. V/H/S: VIRAL's segments include the story of a deranged illusionist who obtains a magical object of great power, a homemade machine that opens a door to a parallel world, teenage skaters that unwillingly become targets of a Mexican death cult ritual, and a sinister, shadowy organization that is tracking a serial killer. The segments are tied together by the story of a group of fame-obsessed teens following a violent car chase in LA that unwittingly become stars of the next internet sensation.
