Infected

A group of men get together to hunt in the woods at the same time a virus outbreak occurs turning people into flesh eating zombies.

Michael Madsen stars in this one and he is in this thing the whole time which is rare for him. William Forsythe is in this as well and he looks like he could be playing a Civil War hero with his hair. When you got both of them talking to each other you wonder whose throat has the most frogs stuck in them. You want them both to clear their throats I mean they are drinking enough alcohol on screen to do the job.

The film is just awful right from the acting to the wonderful makeup. Zombie makeup was a white foundation with messy red lipstick. They do a bad Night Of The Living Dead and then in the last ten minutes they cram three seasons of The Walking Dead, The Last Man On Earth and they even take a Mad Max spin.

I think this film infected my comp'*\

The guy in the cowboy hat was awful. He yelled in scenes that didn't call for him to yell at all. He sounded like a man scolding his children not directing commands to other adults. I'm also not sure the point of the son at the end in that garage. That went on forever and nothing even happened. I was shocked that the refrigerator that he appeared to attack to open had no food but yet the freezer was working well and it was spotless, clean. Come on guys, low budget doesn't mean it should be crap.

I have never felt the need to leave a review before but this is probably the worst film I have ever seen. The initial premise comes across as this could be OK, a bit cliché'd but an attempt to add a bit of originality to the origin of the outbreak.

The effects are poor which wouldn't necessarily be bad but add the strange musical interludes which seem like an attempt to build romantic intrigue, throw in a new cliché every 5 minutes or so and you end up with a film that goes downhill fast and stays there.

The final nail in the coffin of this awful film is to finish it off with a narrative that makes it feel like you have just finished watching a T.V. pilot.

Some bad films are funny because they are bad, this one isn't, it's just bad.

There are the boring movies, there are the bad movies, this is bad and boring at the same time. And believe me, after watching fan made Star Trek series this week, I know about bad acting. This was worse.

You have to know when Michael Madsen gets a role in anything these days that you are not going to like it, but I had some hopes for William Forsythe. They both act their usual old tough routine, only without any pathos or interest. The special effects are what you and I would make in a garage, the dialog and script in general are abysmal. I don't know how to bring it to you: there is nothing in this film that was even remotely average. Everything was bad. And not that funny bad that you can laugh at while drinking a beer, but that boring life sucking bad that one should to the utmost to avoid.

So bottom line: run away from this. If you see it on someone's harddrive, delete it, if you see it on a movie shelf, accidentally set it on fire. It will save lives!

OMG!

Are we supposed to take it that Madsen and Forsythe are so desperate for drug money they had to make this movie?

In Rhode Island no less?

Forsythe looks like he has white brillo pads on his head.

The movie took nearly 3 years to finish.

Both the leads have such drug ravaged voices you can't make out what they are saying half the time.

It's a mess.

DO NOT WATCH IT.

The Plot.

A blood virus infects a small group of hunters turning a father & son trip into a fight for survival.
