Watch Infected

Infected is a sci-fi horror movie that delves into a post-apocalyptic world where the undead roam the earth after a lethal virus outbreak exterminated millions of people. The movie is directed by Andrew Gilbert and stars Luke Hobson, Nicky Paul Barton, and Roger Fowler. The movie is set in a world where a viral outbreak has not only turned people into flesh-eating zombies, but also stripped human beings of all their protective instincts. Luke Hobson plays the protagonist, a soldier who has survived this zombie apocalypse, but at the cost of losing everyone close to him. He sets out on a journey to find other survivors and unravel the truth behind the outbreak.

As he prepares to leave the safety of his basecamp, Hobson meets a group of survivors who are also looking to find safety in numbers. They decide to accompany him on the perilous journey. But the road ahead is fraught with dangers as they face not just the threat of the infected but also volatile individuals, who have all their fears amplified.

The group makes its way across country, encountering abandoned towns that paint a terrifying picture of what the world has become. The zombies in the movie look pretty standard to what viewers have already seen in other movies. However, the added factor of humans losing their protective senses adds an extra layer of danger.

The movie does a great job of building tension through its pacing. It's not just about the undead lurking around the corner. Things get even more dangerous when the group comes across a military camp run by a captain who's lost his mind. The camp proves to be a ticking time bomb as the group discovers an underground facility where the virus was created. Here is where the characters must confront the truth and face their worst fears.

The acting in Infected is generally good, with Luke Hobson carrying the movie on his shoulders. The secondary characters, however, feel a bit one-dimensional. Moreover, the characters occasionally make questionable decisions that are detrimental to their survival, but that's just inherent of the horror genre.

One aspect of the movie that stands out is its soundtrack. Adrian Johnson has created an atmospheric score that heightens the tension at every moment. The sound editing also plays a significant role in making the horror elements of the movie truly terrifying.

As the survivors brave through seemingly insurmountable despair, the movie forces them to make tough decisions about how far they're willing to go to survive. Do they stay human and comionate, or do they become ruthless and violent like the rest of humanity?

Overall, Infected is an interesting take on the zombie genre. While it doesn't reinvent the genre, it delivers a well-executed story with some creative narrative choices. The movie's grim atmosphere and fantastic soundtrack make for a mostly enjoyable watch.

Infected is a 2015 horror movie with a runtime of 2 hours and 1 minute. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 3.8.
