IMDB.com Page

Synopsis:  A young girl contracts what she thinks is a sexually-transmitted disease - but is actually something much worse.

Why We Suggest It:  This is a very intimate look at a common horror sub-genre, zombies.  It is a simple story and the effects are minimal. But it is a a unique little gross out film about a young woman slowly changing into a flesh-eating undead.  I was pleasantly surprised considering the running time is a brisk 84 minutes.  If you're a fan of zombie movies this is definitely worth a watch!  Please be advised this is NOT a good date movie!

  1. Definitely a gross movie. So is the sequel, though. I can't believe the amount of negativity surrounding this film. It's a great low budget movie with good effects and a solid plot. I don't understand why people try to apply real world logic to a fictional piece of work? Anyway, good synopsis of the film.

  2. I wasn't too sold on this movie at first. After watching it though I thought it was an interesting take on the traditional zombie genre.
