The third film of the V/H/S horror franchise will be heading to theaters this fall, with Magnet Releasing just announcing they’ve picked up the US distribution rights to V/H/S: Viral. The third film of the popular anthology series features segments directed by Nacho Vigalondo, Marcel Sarmiento, Gregg Bishop, Justin Benson, and Todd Lincoln.

In addition to announcing the acquisition, Magnet Releasing has released the official trailer for the horror film.

V/H/S: Viral has the strength of its predecessors and continues to break new ground in the genre,” said Magnolia President Eamonn Bowles. “This installment features terrific work from some very talented genre filmmakers.”

The Plot:

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.
