V/H/S: VIRAL Gets a Release Date

For the last few years, October hasn’t released many horror titles for some reason, despite being the perfect month for doing so.  This year however, we’ll see a slew of Halloween friendly releases with The Conjuring spinoff Annabelle on the 3rd, Paranormal Activity 5 and Ouija on the 24th, The ABCs of Death 2 on the 31st, and now Bloody Disgusting announced that V/H/S: Viral will hit VOD platforms on the 23rd.

V/H/S will also be getting a limited theatrical release on November 21st.

If horror movies aren’t enough for you, a few horror-themed video games are releasing October as well with Alien: Isolation on the 7th, and Evolve and The Evil Within on the 21st.

Here’s the synopsis for V/H/S: Viral:

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.
