As the virus spreads around the world, ordinary people struggle to survive in a society coming apart.
I was excited to see this film as I had heard lots about it and I thought that the trailer looked good. The film has a huge cast that manage to deliver a film that feels very real and creepy. The film is thought provoking and keeps you gripped throughout. The films plot is strong and I have to say that I was very pleased that I went to see it.
Film Rating: 8/10
