Extinction: Patient Zero

Nothing special here, very minimalistic movie with fairly unknown cast, which translates into some acting issues. Catering only to the niche audience of those who like survivalist and "locked-in-a-room" themes. Some unfair ratings should not dissuade those who fall into the above mentioned category.

Sure it wasn't the best or worst movie I've seen. Considering they made the movie basically all in a quarantine locked up room, with a few videos uploaded by the main scientist working on the biological weapon, it was good. The ending was a surprise, & there were some unanswered questions but overall I think it deserves a better rating than a 1. There are four main actors, 3 scientists & a army corporal waking up in a locked quarantine bunker. The main scientist is injured & unconscious, the army corporal is injured, the other two dr's are just trying to figure out what happened. It started intense & flashes back & forth between "the dr's video logs" (not any of the dr's in the room) & the present. The clock is ticking down from 60 minutes where the building will self destruct without the unlock code from the unconscious dr. There are some parts where you say "oh come on? Is this for real? Are they really doing that?" But it still kept my interest. The one dr finds a link to the outside world via a satellite, laptop type device, & is connected to a dr. Lang, who says he works for homeland security. Throughout the movie I was questioning who were the good & bad guys, because everyone is suspicious of each other & even whether the outside world connection could be trusted. When I look back after watching the whole movie, I thought "yeah that could happen, yeah what if that contamination was let out into the world & millions of people were dying. A man made biological weapon possibly being released into the world? A biological weapon of sorts? Just watch it with a open mind. End of the world movie fanatics like me may like it.... just don't expect a lot of action & running and gore, remember it all takes place in an underground bunker type large safe room.

It's a very low-budget movie, mostly set in a vault. It's not about action or zombies, nor does it focus on showing infected people. Instead, it's about them trying to figure out what happened, what is happening, and what they should do.

The acting is fine, and the story is okay. It was engaging enough to watch until the end. If you're bored and you like the genre, it's a good bet that you'll enjoy this movie.

The movie is about 70 minutes long, which is just right. With a bigger budget, they could have included more action. They could have also shown the horrifying effects of the virus with practical effects, but I suppose they didn't have the money for that.

For an extremely low-budget production, it's decent.

the acting is terrible, they really act, and they show it by screaming worse than Adele. the script is extremely stupid, i can't believe the writer can be older than 8 yrs. he or she show you clearly what tricks he's using to dramatize the script. this is amateurish, but the interesting theme and the start like the movie saw may trick a lot of people to waste their time on this, we seem to have only 52 people who rated this, thank god, but we need to save as many lives as possible from this virus of stupidity that could infect three quarters of mankind.
