Review of Plague

Plague (2014)
8/10
More of a Psychological Thriller than a Horror Film
28 May 2015
If you're expecting an action movie you'll be disappointed. If you want a psychological thriller then this is up your alley.

I will start off by saying this review is impartial even though one of the directors is my younger brother. I'm not a big fan of horror movies in general but I went to the the premier at the Astor Theatre in Melbourne to support him.

However, I came out of the movie liking it. If you're in the U.S. ignore the advertising. They make it look like an action movie where zombies attack every 15-20 minutes. It isn't. It's a psychological thriller that centres around the survivors, their states of mind, and the question of "What would you do to survive?".

I give it an 8 out of 10 because it could be tightened up in places (and I let my brother know this), but overall I enjoyed the movie as this is my kind of horror movie. It's in the same genre as Identity (starring John Cusack).
