This isn't a movie about solving the crisis or winning, its about surviving even though there's no real reason to anymore other than survival's sake.Steven Soderbergh's CONTAGION seems to be everyone's go-to Coronavirus party movie, especially with Typhoid Gwyneth in the news with her vagina-scented candles, but for those of us in the know, future BATTLE ROYALE director Kinji Fukasaku's 1980 cult classic VIRUS is where it's at.

Masao Kusakari is a very handsome man, by the way. The film's "double apocalypse" and its roster of international talent assured its hefty price tag.A deadly virus -- engineered for germ warfare -- devastates the world, while 863 men and 8 women hunker down in Antarctica, where the virus cannot reproduce.

But no it’s Glenn Ford as President (would be deemed a “loser” by you-know-who), seemingly with a foot in the grave at the outset; hey, here’s your basic George Kennedy; and, why not, your more basic Bo Svenson; and wildman military attache for Buck Turgidson, Henry Silva who in one scene resembles a screaming anime dictator. It feels truly catastrophic, like an accumulation of every single disaster movie created within the boom period of the 1970s come home to roost.

Explain to me why they couldn't just get rid of all the men who were over 60, for example and while we're at it, why they couldn't just put that one rapist on an ice floe or something. Malheureusement la réalisation et le budget n'est pas à la hauteur du sujet, mais il reste très intéressant.This film accurately hits a lot of political and social events durning a pandemic and a world-wiping virus, but I have to admit I was not invested in the story or characters at all.

Acting is stiff at times, watching a bunch of old men sitting around a table having a prolonged and serious discussion about how to fuck women can be pretty, uh, uncomfortable. Today, it feels relevant as ever as we witness a group of human beings reckoning with their own self-imposed destruction. Captain McCloud - HMS Nereid Secretary - Palmer Station Scientists in Antarctica desperately try to find a cure to a military virus that was released in a plane crash and has wiped out the rest of the world. Parts of the film were really shot in Antarctica, with assistance from the Chilean navy. I still enjoyed the movie, though not to the extent which I had anticipated seeing how this is Kinji Fukasaku (Battle Royale!!) Admittedly I dozed off a couple of times.
