it abandons these models of action, comedy and the supernatural, preferring instead to root its horror in the grimly realistic human drama of four random wanderers gradually losing everyone and everything that they hold dear.

Reviews for Carriers
Put into extremely limited release by Paramount Vantage after spending years in studio lockdown, Carriers has moments of genuinely communicable horror and thus deserves better than a de facto theatrical quarantine.
At 84 minutes, it's a sharp, swift and unrelenting movie. I think it's only going to be out for a week, so please%u2026 GO SEE THIS RIGHT NOW!!! It's surprisingly fantastic.
It's not a film about the gradual extinction of humankind -- it's actually about the horrible demise of humanity.
