    chris pine plays Brian pretty much a jerky BF & Brother. Accompanied by his gf (played by Piper Pirabou his brother & bro?s GF (Emiliee Van Camp of Everwood fame) basically there?s some sort of virus (plague) the broker out & there?s nary a soul to be found for miles around. It...( read more)s pretty much the usual 28 days later type only it doesn?t turn into the Rage virus. You basically just start getting ?bruises? all over your body. Be sure to stok up on PLENTY of Clorox for this because everything you come into contact with needs to be disinfected. (this can be helped best in a 24 hour window.) also be sure to always keep your mask on. Should you come into contact with someone that has it make sure is SECURELY on. Otherwise you?ll find yourself stranded. Oh yeah & SHOULD something happen where you get blood on your shit I?d get the loofa out & start scrubing w/ the Clorox including my hair! Woner if a drop of Clorox in your system would kill you? Maybe 1 a day might clean out any of that virus & maybe prevent you from getting it (but they don?t try something like that in any of these kinds of movie) anyway it was a C

    You usually expect movies with semi-famous actors to be a step above all the other horror films Hollywood serves. I personally am very fond of Lou Taylor Pucci and Christopher Meloni, and I can easily watch films with Chris Pine, Piper Perabo and Emily VanCamp in. But, unfortunat...( read more)ely, even though it tries to say something, it doesn't succeed in saying it.

    Unlike most virus/pandemic films, we actually see the aftermath in this film, and not the breakout. More than anything, this isn't a horror movie that will disgust you or scare you, since neither happens. It's actually a film about heartless choices, and what one will do in the face of survival. How cruel the kindest of humans can become when their safety is at question - how we abandon children in the hands of a man who will poison them to save them - how we leave behind our girlfriend because she's "one of them" - how we shoot our own flesh and blood to be safe.

    A different scope in a very ordinary matter, but other than that, nothing interesting - or something exceptional.

    REVIEW

    Two brothers and two girls are traveling across country...( read more) trying to avoid those who are infected with a horrible disease. The disease has killed most of the population. They are doing okay until they run across a father and his infected daughter, who are looking to get to a government clinic with a serum that promises a cure. The two groups are forced through circumstances to hook up and the journey changes their outlooks on the situation. It also marks the beginning of events moving out of everyone's control (or at least the realization that things are not in their control).

    Small scale film is a nice compliment to films like 28 Days Later or even the recent zombie cycle, though there are no walking dead or crazed cannibals here. It's a dark horror tale more about the horrors of life then of monsters and madmen. How would we react to a situation like this? This might be an indication of what we might do. I like that the film doesn't full tell us everything that happened before. Things are not overly explained. We're given enough to work things out for ourselves and its more frightening that way. Its not a perfect film, but it is compelling and tense. It's a good enough film to make me wonder why this film hasn't gotten a big release. Perhaps the lack of monsters and its reasonably realistic (and bleak) nature have made it a film the studio doesn't know how to market. I really like this film, it's a nice find. Recommended.

    Intresting and surprise movie not about a virus spreading but the after math and the effects and of 4 survivers trying to get to a safe place and out run the virus.Its a kind of road movie and is more characters driven.Anyone looking for a 28 days later clone will be disappointed...( read more).The 4 leads are great in there roles.The movie is bleak and dark and is little hard to watch in places as i was thinking what would i do in there situration......not easy!
    Over all a great horror/drama movie and worth people viewing.

    so this movie is about 4 survivors. and there is some kind of pandemic going on around the world they dont know what started it. so that is where it really gets hard to follow at one moment you think is there going to be any resident evil type thing going on you dont then your li...( read more)ke is it like 28 days later and it kinda is but instead of a happy ending you get an 5 minute ending and not one person says anything everything about this movie was good and you did understand how they felt but it was just weird to have a movie about survivors to be so deep

    At least it was well dramatic during the time. The film had a decent apocalyptic version as the story became not bad!

    La historia no es nueva, es algo que ya se ha visto mucho en otras películas pero que, sin embargo llama la atención. Cuando por primera vez vi el trailer, me hice una imagen de como sería carriers, lamentablemente con lo que me encontré está muy por debajo de lo que me esperaba....( read more)

    Las actuaciones no son ni buenas ni malas, pero uno de los personajes desde el principio me fue insoportable. Las decisiones por las que tienen que pasar son duras y lo que buscan es la sobrevivencia.

    Para mí, faltó profundizar en como inició todo; porque desde el principio aparece el virus pero nunca se explica porqué. 5/10
