Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
Leofwine_draca THE VIRUS is a typical low budget indie horror flick from America. The protagonists are a bunch of film students who head off to a remote and abandoned installation with their professor in tow. They soon discover that the deadly virus located within is still very much alive and soon working its way through them. One by one they succumb to the gruesome disease while attempting to discover a way out of the situation. The whole film plays out in a typical fashion without a moment's originality. The visuals are grim and greyed-out but hey, it's not the worst you'll see.
Andy Van Scoyoc I was going to review this film for my YouTube channel, From Zen to Zombies, but being as it's not worth doing so, I think I'll just stick to warning everyone, on here.Want the truth? This movie is about telling the truth and believe me, the truth of this abysmal time waster is NOT pretty. Going by the title The Virus on Amazon Prime, just a change in title from one platform to another is enough to turn most people off, but, in case someone is as diligent as I am and insists on tracking down this train wreck of a film, here's why you shouldn't waste your time. BAD acting. One of the actors was so stiff and unrealistic, you could have taken him surfing, all but a couple of the others were just awful. I'm not sure whether the film got better or worse once William McNamara was killed off.I realize this is an Indie film and not MGM...but...dang.Great plot line...stupid story...badly, badly executed. Add the terrible acting to an already confusing and hole ridden landscape or a film and you've got one heck of a time wasting disaster. The only cool thing about this movie was the old hospital, which looked like an abandoned school out in the middle of nowhere. No matter what title you find this film under, when you do find it...unfind it. You'll be much happier not watching it and just leaving it at that. Trust me...
Michael Ledo The film opens with a lengthy explanatory monotone about a truth serum virus that mutates and must be contained...or else people act out their "Impulse" 1984-Meg Tilly-a film theme that has become recently popular. A college professor (William McNamara) notices the same cloud cover over a place that was there years ago (Is there an app that checks that?) He thinks something is being hidden there and it is not Dick Cheney's house. The crew goes to the remote access location by foot....okay you fill in blanks.I felt the monologue explanation should have been left out. What happened is explained within the film and a little mystery is good. This one didn't have it, and they could of had it. The acting and dialogue are on par with low budget productions. The truth serum aspect was not as good as "Liar, Liar." They needed a funny guy in the group.No swearing or nudity. Brief sex scene.
zenabellis i enjoyed watching it was different to most films i have watched in this category where viruses are concerned a teacher and his students go to a site that was hidden on the map get trapped in a building as they were unaware the building was contained and was guarded by solders then in turn the students start becoming ill and did not know what was going on or why they were getting ill but they also started acting strange they then go exploring the building to find a way out , they come across a laptop where they find out about the virus and why the building was hidden at least they didn't turn into zombies the ending will leave you wondering if there will be a number 2
