Best movie of this year hands down!

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

The US army wants a new biological weapon and they are testing it on volunteer students who want to make a quick thousand dollars. Once a group is selected they are put into the facility equipped with cameras, then gassed which is how the drug is administered. They sit back and watch the results.The drug makes them bleed from all orifices, then gives them a surge of energy making them incredibly strong wanting just to kill. They look like demon zombies. The difference in this film is that the infected people can be killed like how anybody could be. They don't take 50 bullets and keep going.My only complaint is the overplayed premise and Daniel Baldwin's presence.

I cannot believe I wasted my time watching this movie. The only scary part of this movie was realizing that I actually paid to see it. The script is child like, the direction is not even there, and which Baldwin is this, oh yeah the one they kept locked up in the basement. About two minutes into the movie I actually wanted to just gouge my eyes out, but I thought it has to get better I mean it could not get any worse. I was really wrong in these lines of thinking, I read the previous reviews on here and thought this might not be a bad movie. These reviews must be relatives of someone involved in the film because no competent person could possibly find anything thrilling about this film. PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE!!!!!

A young woman running along a deserted road is pursued by men in black . She runs in to a woodlands and is shot by one of the men carrying a snipers rifle . As she lies dying in the snow she is then executed by a bullet After this more than adequate opening hook we cut to a university lecture room where a tutor discusses stem cell research: : Yet another morally ambiguous topic . Is it ever ethical to sacrifice one embryo to save ten , twenty , a hundred , a thousand individuals ? " He goes around class asking this question and the students are perplexed and indecisive about giving an answer . This is something fundamentally wrong about this reaction . We are talking about an embryo . Something that is not developed in to any human form . In other words it's not yet human and doesn't qualify as a human being . It's an embryo not a human so asking questions like sacrificing something in order to save other human beings as if it's the same equivalent as a human is a non sequiter .. You can guess this is an American film and one hopes that in real life the average American student is more cerebral than the muppets seen here who are no doubt registered with the more right wing elements of the Republican party I did perhaps notice a slight agenda with this film . One of those students then signs up for a medical experiment with an organisation calling itself " Systems and science " and they're the bad guys . There is of course nothing wrong with a horror film making political comments and I did enjoy 28 WEEKS LATER which featured an American taskforce repopulating a devastated land and then having to destroy it in order to save the wider international community . Hardly a subtle subtext but one that is recognisable and appreciated at the same time . As the characters of the experiment are introduced someone makes a joke about Noah but there's no blatantly faith good science bad soapbox shouting and I probably over analysed this a bit too much . It is of course a low budget indie horror thriller and the message carried is " trust no one especially where the government is concerned " . You've seen this type of idea before and because you've seen it so many times it's not stand out in any way and if you don't like horror movies you won't like this . It does manage to generate a few scary moments and meets expectations

Horror films are all the rage this year (World War Z, Insidious: Chapter 2, Carrie...) and After Effect is finally one worth watching. I hate horror movies, they give me awful headaches and I don't see the point of them. As soon as After Effect started, I changed my mind.If you are looking for a movie that will leave you on the edge of your seat the whole time, this is that movie!!! Direction and acting are great, story line is very creative and still believable, hate those movies with ideas from left field. Definitely do not take your kids to see it, it was a little intense for a grown man like me but at the same time I wanted to see more. Hope they make a sequel the writing was creative and would love to see more from this writer.The film is a visual masterpiece. Kirk Anderson gives an absolutely stunning performance, acting to absolutely nothing, yet always being right on the spot. If you get a chance to see After Effect, go for it. David McElroy has outdone himself with this film, it's definitely a must see for horror film lovers.
