Geez, what a time to be talking about viruses, eh?
Well, how’s about a little escapism for your Spring with the U.S. release announcement for Flavio Pedota’s award-winning thriller, Infection. The film is popular in its native Venezuela where it also happens to be banned for its anti-Chavismo.
After an outbreak of a new strand of the rabies virus turns the population into bloodthirsty cannibals, a young doctor finds himself separated from his son. Navigating his way through the plague-infested streets and marauder-filled backwoods, he must use every resource to find his only child and hopefully unlock the secret to a cure for the deadly disease.
INFECTION received its world premiere at Guadalajara and has since screened at Sitges (Spain), Fantasporto (Portugal), Utopiales (France), Popcorn Frights (US), Fantaspoa (Brasil), Morbido (Mexico), Raindance (UK) and Festival Of Fear in Canada where it won Best Film.
Jinga Films and Dark Sky Films will release Infection on DVD and VOD on April 14, 2020. Peep the trailer above and poster below!
