Virus X [Import]

Ok, these low budget horror flicks with almost no budget are entertaining in their own way.
However the cover for this one leads one to think of zombies or "28 days later" or "rec' but it's not.
In fact this is about a group of scientists who are infected by a mutant h1n1 virus and then attacked by a android.
It's pure shlock! lots lots of almost no budget horror movies through the ages that I enjoy so well.
This fits into that scene with it's sets which are basically some sort of wharehouse with designer walls and plastic sheeting even. That's supposed to be the lab. THey have mabybe for stages set up! The android looks like a transvestite sorta and talks with a srrange voice. The basic story though of evil labs allowing a virus to escape so that they can make money from the vaciine is a good idea. IT's just that they had no money at all to make this movie with! If you don't like superlow budget akward movies then stay away from this one. BUt I like them and so found this to be what I expected. The dvd looks excellent and it's dark because that's how they shot this movie. At least it's on film though! The acting isn't terrible as one person said , instead these newer actors do the best with what they have and are believable as dying plague victims. However the direction is all over the place like you'd expect.

I only found out about this movie because I was searching the shelves of my local Blockbuster for something to watch. After reading the back it seemed interesting. The movie is a low budget horror movie(which I don't mind) about a group of scientist who are researching the H1M1 disease, during the film they become infected and they become trapped in their workspace. The movie has poor lighting, not very good acting, and the plot really doesn't make sense sometimes. If I had a fatal disease and I was trying to escape and survive would I all of a sudden try to make out and have sex with someone? Bottom line do not rent even if you love horror movies like me, just pass on it, trust me.

This is a great, scary movie. I stumbled upon this film and really enjoyed it. If you like dark classic Italian horror you will like this film too. It's a true psychological horror and a great mashup of Roger Corman and Argento. Lots of great gore effects also.
