Rijndri Load of rubbish!!
Konterr Brilliant and touching
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Michael Ledo I enjoyed the horror/mystery/thriller aspect of the film, even some of the plot details. The problem is the execution was horrendous. Sadie (Haley Talbot) has a deadly new disease. Her doctor (Christopher Toyne) claims he can cure her in three weeks if she submits to an experimental procedure in a remote secure location. In order for her husband to be able to go with her, he agrees to contract the disease and undergo treatment. The doctor has had the disease and has been cured.The facility has that sanitary institutionalized feel to it. There are several other patients there also. You immediately realize things are not what they seem and you want to know more about the cure.The acting was acceptable for a "B" horror film. The script needed some polish. For effect, the camera was a bit jerky, for that live feel and during crisis scenes, the voices were removed which I found took away from the film more than added. Sometimes more is more.F-bombs, sex, male nudity.
Galactus12 This is now the second film I've seen from this director, and believe me, if this were the days before digital cameras, this man would never be allowed near a real film set. I review films for a living, both for a major publication and for a festival (that this film was rejected from) and this movie falls short in nearly every way. I won't waste my time or yours writing a thorough review, but STAY AWAY! unless Troma movies are your guilty pleasure, this kind of amateur work will not entertain you. The poorly written dialogue, to the slow pacing make this a laughable addition to the horror genre. The butt-holed man was probably one of the dumbest creatures to every grace a movie screen. Awful, awful filmmaking.
rachellovesfilms First off, I love indie films. I love horror films. After watching the trailer for this, I was sooo sure this would be one of my new fave movies. yeah, that didn't happen. At all.It has a very slow build up. Honestly, if I hadn't watched the trailer so many times and seen what creepy things were coming, I would have given up after 15 minutes. But, I soldiered on and was not rewarded. An oft seen directing technique is to keep some questions unanswered to keep the audience in suspense. And we get this from the start (only referring to things in terms of "the disease" and "the cure"). But, the whole point is to eventually at least ALLUDE to an answer. I seriously have no idea what happened. In the beginning, as part of "the cure" you can clearly see some sort of insect-like organism being implanted. Granted, you can only see a leg, but I know an exoskeleton when I see it. Then, as we see more of the cure, it is sometimes a 5+ foot long worm-time organism. Sometimes it's a weird membranous structure that takes over the host's head. I get that we aren't supposed to know what "the cure" really is other than it is a parasite, but there were so many things that just were outside the realm of belief for me. 1.) that there is a parasite that has that many damn forms 2.) that someone would sign up for an experimental procedure without at least getting an idea of what the procedure actually is and what the side effects are 3.) that NO ONE tried to use the video chat to call for help. at the end, that one guy called his wife and didn't mention the fact that they were in a freaking level 55 danger situationand, because i'm a nerd, I couldn't believe that 1.) there would ever be a gov't funded study in which patients were not told up front what the procedure and what the side effects would be. that's the law. 2.) that a doctor would ever just start sticking his gloved hand into someone's body during a surgery. 3.) those are FORCEPS. not a SPREADER. just because you happened to use them to spread open the incision at that point in time doesn't mean that's what it's called. 4.) that a doctor would ever put on sterile latex gloves and then TOUCH HIS FACE before examining a patient.yes, i know the doc was obviously crazy, but he was also a researcher. he would never do anything that would at all contaminate his results.there is difference between asking an audience to suspend their beliefs a little and follow you on a weird journey for the sake of cinema, and just not doing all of your research when you're writing a medical sci-fi script and filling said script with tons of plot holes.the ONLY redeeming quality this film has is the special fx makeup. and even then, i would recommend just looking up pictures instead of watching the film. very disappointed.
Robin Stubbe I like the poster, but it promises something that this movie does not deliver. The movie is very slow, almost like an art-house movie. But it isn't one.It's very boring for the first twenty minutes. And just when you think that is going to change........it doesn't. It's not scary at all, and it has some really old stereotypical characters (like a doctor with a German accent)I managed to sit through the first 45 minutes of it, i should get a medal for that. I've given it more then one chance. But it was all just a disappointment. The actors did their best (the main characters, i believed in their fictional marriage)but when you have a script this bad that doesn't help much. I will not remember this film for very long. It made absolutely no impact.
