SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

alistairc_2000 This movie had real potential to be a good move. It is quite creepy in parts but redemption movies are not really my thing. A plague has taken all the children away just like the pied piper pinched children in fairy tales. In this one the unknown power puts them into a coma from which no ones knows if they will recover.In a well trawled plot line the kids are here to save us. Of course it does not make a whole lot of sense. What have we done? What have they done? Perhaps this is god punishing us for all the evil things we have done. Or if they had produced this movie in the 1990s it could have been a way of saying that the Christians might go to heaven.If you want to see this movie competently try watching End of the Line. Which is close to this plot but expertly handled. I kept waiting for something to happen. Then when something happened i kept waiting for it to get exciting. It never does. Calling it Clive Barker's The Plague makes you think that it might have some of CB's genius for horror. Unfortunately this did not prove the case as he is only the executive producer and has not written any part of it. So if like me you wanted the darkness of his mind you are going to be really disappointed.

BakuryuuTyranno Personally I'm tired of apocalyptic/post-apocalyptic story lines but fortunately, since Clive Barker has actual writing skills, "The Plague" is better than "the human race could become extinct so our movie is automatically significant".Anyways, this one's about something odd happening to children, except after being unconscious for over a decade, they mysteriously awaken only now they're homicidal. Essential its a zombie movie, except the mysterious children are exceptionally strong and have a hive mind.Unfortunately, the characters were obviously more developed in the original story. At times things got confusing and I couldn't tell who these people were!

wes-connors In the not to distant future, every human child under age nine mysteriously falls into a coma. Most of the kids are hospitalized, but a few are cared for at home. Twice a day, they have convulsions (which seems to give their bodies a good workout). "The Plague" extends to newborns, also; all are born comatose. As years pass, no healthy babies are born. Births are discouraged, and abortions are mandatory. The victims remain comatose. With no functioning offspring, the human race is threatened with extinction.This is a reasonably well set-up, but ultimately pointless, confusing, and unsatisfactory story. It's like "Village of the Damned" and "Night of the Living Dead" were copulated, and gave birth to a script. Then, they tried to film it as "The Grapes of Wrath" with James Van Der Beek (as Tom Russell) taking on the protagonist's role and Ivana Milicevic (as Jean Raynor) wanting to take over. The best thing you can say about the ending is that because it's so bad, any subversive message will go right over your head.**** The Plague (9/5/06) Hal Masonberg ~ James Van Der Beek, Ivana Milicevic, Brad Hunt, Joshua Close

janel1309 There was a lot missing in this movie. A lot of things go unexplained and that really bothered me. It had a good started, but never capitalized on what it started. The big mystery of why the kids start killing people seems to hinge on a page in a diary that they find. However, it doesn't fully explain why all of this happened in the first place or why kids under the age of nine. It also never explains what triggered them to just wake up after 10 years.I started to wonder what happened. Why would a writer do that and then I found the web site www.spreadingtheplague.com It is a site run by the writer/director and it explains a lot. If you watched the movie and wondered what was up with all the unanswered question you should check out the site.
