"It's been confirmed that an audience member passed out during last evening's 9:40pm screening of the film V/H/S at the Nuart theater in Los Angeles. This is the second confirmed fainting at a screening of V/H/S (the other happened at Sundance). Reports say the fainting caused quite a commotion in the audience, as the man apparently stood up and then proceeded to faint during the same exact scene that caused the Sundance incident."

"A filmgoer who saw the movie in 1974 during its original release fainted and broke his jaw on the seat in front of him. He then sued Warner Brothers and the filmmakers, claiming that the use of subliminal imagery in the film had caused him to pass out. The studio settled out of court for an undisclosed sum. The film affected many audiences so strongly that at many theaters, paramedics were called to treat people who fainted and others who went into hysterics."
