Antivral (2012)

Starring: Caleb Laundry Jones, Sarah Gadon
Director: Brandon Cronenberg

Premise:
In the future a company sells viruses from celebrities to obsessed fans. One employee sneaks a virus into his system, which begins to cause his slow death. Now he must figure out a way to stop the virus and who is behind it.

My Take:
A daring movie that makes one think about how far some will go for a touch of celebrity. It is methodically paced and full of weirdness. Some outstanding visuals and looks beautifully with eye popping colors. My night be for all fans, but it is definitely an original piece of horror cinema.

Rating: So Good
