Very disappointed :(

A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

The film starts out with an oriental virus and then shifts to the school world of Stacey (Analeigh Tipton) and her sister Emma (Sofia Black-D'Elia). Mom and Dad are out of town when the CDC quarantine sets in and the area goes under marshal law. The sisters stick together through thick and thin.The acting was acceptable with a decent story line and good special effects in that one scene, however the film was weighed down with a lot of no action scenes. Do not read IMDb description unless you want a plot spoiler.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

Sisters Emma (Sofia Black-D'Elia) and Stacey Drakeford (Analeigh Tipton) are home alone in a California suburb. As her class studies parasites, her friend Gracie starts coughing up blood. Emma has a crush on neighbor Evan Klein (Travis Tope). The girls go to a party where all hell breaks loose. Their father is away and stuck outside of a quarantine during a viral outbreak. Some on the internet call it worm flu.This is a relative simple horror. It's nothing we haven't seen before. Its unoriginality leaves it without any scares. The worms are functional body horror but not that grotesque. The girls' sistership has some potential. Overall, this is too basic to be that interesting.

Not a bad little B flick! Low production, but not trying to be anything but entertaining and it had its moments. I had it on while I was multi-tasking, and it got me to stop and watch a few times. Acting was decent, too. Definitely worth the view.

First off, I have to say that the acting was the best part of this movie. What lets it down is a really poor script and lack of budget. I'll come to that mess in a moment, but here's a brief synopsis. The planet is taken over by a virus, spread by blood contact and the idea is loosely based around the botfly parasite and the even looser Toxoplasmosis parasite, which is able to control it's hosts, which happen to be rats and mice. Wrongly stated in the script, the parasite makes the rats attack the cats, when in reality the rats are attracted by a pheromone in the cats urine and therefore become easy prey. The cats eat the rodent and the parasite has a new place to reproduce. So, as you can imagine, I don't really have to say a lot more about this area of the plot. The movie is confined to a small cast and a localised area and much of the impression that this is a wide-scale world virus is mainly due to TV audio reporting and a bit of cgi. So much more could have been done to make this a fairly decent movie - mainly a better budget - another 'Outbreak; it is not! The movie only ever escapes the confines of a small housing community once, until the final scene, which is, in itself, disappointing. If you want to convey a worldwide epidemic/or pandemic, then maybe some foreign footage would be in order. This merely looks like the virus attacking a U.S street, containing a few houses. Despite good acting it fails to be convincing. There are various plot-holes, none more stupid than the kids holding a party in an abandoned house, when the whole world is in crisis and people have been told to stay indoors. The ending is poor and abrupt and strikes you of when you write stories as a kid, at school and run out of ideas, or get bored and you end it rather abruptly with lines like: "and it was all a dream", or "the world was saved, the end.". Is it the worst movie in the world - Nope! Would I watch this again? Nope! Judge whether to watch this based around the time you have left to live and how much value you place on the content of your remaining years.
