About This Movie

Viral (2019) is one of those films that feels like an experiment in visual and auditory decay. The Erosions series takes you on a journey through concepts of oxidation and entropy, all while maintaining a rather hypnotic pace. It’s not your standard narrative-driven film; instead, it immerses you in a meditative space where the visuals seem to deteriorate and evolve in tandem. Practical effects play a key role, creating a tangible sense of disintegration that’s haunting yet captivating. The atmosphere feels very much like a dreamscape, exploring themes of time and change without ever really spelling it out. It’s distinctive in its approach, something that might resonate differently depending on the viewer’s mindset.

Viral has a somewhat niche appeal, primarily for those collectors who appreciate experimental cinema and thematic explorations of decay. It’s not widely available on physical formats, which adds a layer of rarity to it. There have been a few limited releases, but finding a copy can be a bit of a challenge, and that drives interest among collectors. The scarcity can make it a compelling piece to hunt down, especially for those invested in the Erosions series.
