A US military-engineered virus, released during a plane crash, kills almost the entire human population. The only survivors are scientists and military personnel in Antarctica, who desperately try to find a cure and save what is left of the human population from further destruction.

An all ensemble cast for this one. It's actually pretty good,
The idea of such a virus has clearly been around for some time, this film
is based on a Japanese novel. It's worth the watch, some pedigree actors
in this film.
It is a bit stuffy and cliched in some ways. The men are all very shirt and tie and
suits. Bear in mind it was made in 1980 based on a novel written before then. The amount of national military uniforms clustered in one point in Antarctica is quite impressive as well as being highly unlikely.
It would actually be a good film for a remake but it would be a shame if they screwed it up with casting bad actors.
The ending is a bit cheesy as well as unlikely but overall the premise of the film isn't bad at all.
