An evolution in quality from Cronenberg. It's glossier than Shivers, but it borrows a lot of the same themes and tries to expand on them. It loses the claustrophobia, but the scenes of mass hysteria are good.

Interesting twist on the outbreak genre. Not sure I would consider this a zombie movie though as it's more about the attacks.

This had been on my list of shame, as a horror fan, for many years. I just hadn't gotten into Cronenberg despite finding body horror creepy and enjoying scanners. I really liked this film by the end. Doesn't go full armageddon, but boasts significant stakes and has some pretty creepy concepts going on. Recommended for horror fans.

I caught a little of this movie on the horror by Alter channel and decided to watch from the beginning. I really enjoyed this. it holds up extremely well for it's age. I would love to see a modern adaptation done as a multi part miniseries.

Meh...Just another zombie apocalypse movie, only this one was made back in the 70s and had a porn star for the leading role. If you want several shots of Marilyn Chambers' boobs without running the risk of your mom catching you with a porn flick, this is the film for you. Apart from that, there is NOTHING memorable about this and the whole thing was dull and lifeless. A vagina (with a razor-sharp proboscis emanating from it, no less!) develops in this chick's armpit, and suddenly the world is awash with blood-sucking, frothing-at-the-mouth rabid humanoids. The whole story was poorly developed, poorly written, and poorly acted. If there was ANY "upside" to this, it was simply seeing those wild 70's scenes: bell-bottom pants, burnt orange carpeting, gold drapes, paisley wallpaper. So much to roll your eyes and dislike here, I would recommend giving this one a pass even to hardcore fans of Cronenberg. Just not worth wasting an hour and a half on.
