So, 'Virus' from 2017 is a blend of comedy and crime that offers a rather strange narrative. It's about this woman who's completely hooked on online chatting, which feels all too relatable. The film's tone shifts from light-hearted to something darker as it dives into the aftermath of a tragic event—two characters found dead, and the police suspect a suicide pact. What makes it distinctive is how they reveal the twist: it's a mother and son living under different identities. The pacing can be a bit uneven, and the performances are a mixed bag, but there’s something intriguing about its exploration of online personas and the dangers that lurk in digital relationships. The practical effects are minimal, focusing instead on the emotional impact of the story, which might resonate with anyone familiar with internet culture.
