jk90us I watched this god-awful mess for 20 minutes and all I saw was footage of a country road. That's it. Nothing else. Country road. That's it.I thought my DVR was broken and it was showing the same footage over and over. But nope. It was just country road. For twenty minutes. That's it. Nothing else.So I started fast forwarding. Know what I saw? Country road. That's it. Nothing else.For an hour!! Country road. Just country road.Oh, and every once in a while, we'd see some REALLY bad actors. That's it. Then more country road. Nothing else.Finally, the end credits appear. And know what I saw? Albert Pyun. That's right. This absolute POS was directed by Albert (PeeYoo) Pyun. No surprise. None at all.Now I see why his name wasn't shown until the end. Because every human being with any sense at all would have turned the damn thing off if ol' Albert's name had had appeared in the beginning.Country road. And Albert Pyun.You know, most directors get better over the years. Not Albert. Oh no. His films have gotten worse and worse. And his budgets have gotten smaller and smaller. I think this one must have cost MAYBE ten bucks to make. Forty if you count gas money so that car could just drive and drive for a full hour over a country road.Wow. I left my video camera on by mistake one day and shot 37 minutes of an oscillating fan. And even THAT was more fascinating and suspenseful than this dash-cam video.jk90

jcertonio I have never in my life taken the time to write a review on anything. But PLEASE do not waste a penny or a second in this movie. There is nothing redeeming about it at all. The script is terrible, the acting atrocious, the plot absurd, the sound effects ridiculous and the storyline completely boring. It is sad that one red cent was made making this disgrace to the movie industry. I only have it 1 star because there wasn't a way to give it negative stars. I guess they thought they were creating something inventive or imaginative but my six year old niece tells better stories.Everyone involved in this film should be banned from ever making another movie.

shoesncandles That's right. You heard me.Almost everything important in this movie happens off-camera. The problem with these "real-life" style horror flicks is that the presence of the camera has to be explained. The only way the makers of 'Infection' could think of to get a "real" camera into their movie was to use the dashboard camera of a police car. The problems with this choice should have been immediately apparent--the middle of a car's dashboard can't follow a principal character around. A police car can't bob and weave through buildings, can't hide in bushes, can't investigate strange sounds in an abandoned warehouse or flee to the roof and fail miserably at trying to escape via helicopter, can't do about 80% of the "required" activity in a successful zombies-are-coming-to-eat-you flick. It's just too limited. Even COPS doesn't rely ONLY on dashboard cameras. Why the makers of 'Infection' thought they could do it is beyond me. You're so desensitized to everything by the time hand-held cameras finally DO come into play toward the end, it doesn't even have an effect.The "skipping" footage doesn't help matters. For the feed to cut out just when what IS visible starts to get good doesn't make it extra scary, it just makes it frustrating.Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of "less is more." Best thing about 'Paranormal Activity?' The power of suggestion. But the power of suggestion ALONE is not enough to carry a good horror film.Even with an "A for effort," I can only justify giving this flop three stars. Recommended only for those who can't handle the real scares in something like '*REC' or 'Paranormal Activity.'

jfgibson73 So the whole point of this movie was that we're watching it being filmed from a police car camera. It might be one unbroken shot, or maybe several very long ones, which would have required some careful staging. But even if you thought the technique was clever, there really isn't much to the story to make it worth sitting through. Like other reviewers, I found it IMPOSSIBLE to get through this without fast forwarding. There were many long stretches that felt very repetitive. It didn't bother me so much that this took place at night in the woods, but if the filmmakers really wanted to make an impression, they should have given us more to care about. Put something interesting in there to look at, give us some memorable moments. The story was about an alien invasion. This was played out by having people walking around like zombies and spreading the infection/virus by putting their mouths to the next victim's ear. I barely remember how this movie ended because I had so little interest by the time it came. I think this movie needed a few more good ideas to have been worth making.
