Epidemic

About This Movie

Epidemic (2018) is a rather intriguing horror flick that thrives on atmosphere and tension. The whole premise of a birthday party gone awry due to a deadly pathogen creates this claustrophobic vibe that really ramps up the stakes. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, but that kind of adds to the chaos of the unfolding events. The practical effects are a standout feature here – they manage to evoke a sense of realism that CGI often misses. And while the performances aren't always top-tier, there's something raw and genuine about the characters' struggles, especially Dana and Rufus. It’s interesting to see how familial tensions play out against the backdrop of a biohazard situation, making for a distinctive viewing experience.
