Interesting work, not essentially horror, but horrific enough in statement and in execution to warrant a look. A forerunner of Spielberg and Kubrick's A.I. as well, in an odd sense. Explosions of blood and vomit from characters' orifices lead to a suitably fluid-spattered final...( read more)

wow... what can i say 'bout this movie? hmmm... at first glance this movie was easy to follow... but after for a while... there's so much illustration about human exceedingly behaviour and contamination... and it's nice... very nice indeed... it ask us... what if human body can't...( read more)
