The Epidemic

About This Movie

So, 'The Epidemic' is one of those low-budget indie flicks that really gets under your skin. It’s got this raw, gritty vibe throughout, blending action with horror in a way that feels almost urgent. The pacing can be a bit uneven at times, but that just adds to the chaos as the characters navigate a world overrun by zombies. The practical effects? They’re surprisingly effective—lots of creative gore without relying on CGI, which is always a plus in my book. The performances might not be award-winning, but they bring a certain authenticity that pulls you into their desperate struggle. If you're into the whole trapped-with-zombies scenario, this one definitely has its own flavor.

'The Epidemic' has had a somewhat tumultuous release history, with limited copies circulating in various formats, making it a bit of a hidden gem for genre collectors. Its scarcity has led to increased interest among fans of indie horror, especially those who appreciate practical effects over digital. You might find it on obscure streaming sites or in the back aisles of second-hand shops, but it’s definitely one to keep an eye out for if you’re into the zombie sub-genre.
