- Kyle Cahoon30 november 2025Was decent at best, but kind of kept you wondering what was going to happen
- NoOneKnowsSqueego15 maj 2025Handful of actors, one small studio, lower budget, interesting premise. Very well executed. I find myself coming back to this yearly. Just a unique take on a virus and while slower paced, keeps you anticipating. Also great acting!
- cmartino196721 september 2025Intersting concept for a zombielike flick.
- Megan Cruz16 maj 2025An actually unique take on the zombie genre that is packed to the brim with tension.
- David Telford17 augusti 2025Provided in depth story telling with what's going to happen yelling from the deep scary reality that be horror and crime but the fact some characters stayed alive made it impossible not to love every second very worth a wacth but be alert
- jfeet817 juli 2025Dumbest film ever made in every aspect this film is shite
