Last Updated on August 5, 2021

The sequel to the Vicious Brothers’ moderately successful GRAVE ENCOUNTERS is ready to haunt VOD about one month from now, so we’re here to spook you with the trailer, which can be seen below. There’s a handful of creepy images, to be sure, but if you’re as sick of the found footage genre as I am, you’ll be hard pressed to get excited about any shaky-cam offering. Take a gander below and let us know what you think.

Here’s the full synopsis:

In 2011, GRAVE ENCOUNTERS was a found-footage horror phenomenon from the Vicious Brothers, with a trailer garnering over 20 million views on YouTube. Many people believed it was just a movie. They were wrong, and film student Alex Wright is out to prove it in GRAVE ENCOUNTERS 2.

While researching the events depicted in the original film and the subsequent disappearance of its lead ”actor” Sean Rogerson, Alex Wright received a bizarre video from a mysterious blogger named “DeathAwaits666.” Appearing to show Rogerson still alive but trapped inside the Collingwood Psychiatric Hospital from GRAVE ENCOUNTERS, Alex and his friends agree to meet the blogger at the infamous hospital in hopes of learning what really happened. To their horror, they quickly find themselves face-to-face with unspeakable evil. Realizing that they must be smarter and faster than Rogerson and his crew to avoid suffering the same fate, they use their knowledge of the original film to do whatever it takes to survive.

GRAVE ENCOUNTERS 2 will be available nationwide on demand OCTOBER 2nd with a theatrical roll out in October.
