CARRIERS the MOVIE. RUN, BABY, RUN!

PRESS PREVIEW

Arghhh ….

I thoroughly enjoyed CARRIERS the movie.

Surprisingly.

It’s a poser, a human mirror.

It makes you think.

It’s thought provoking.

It urges you to take a walk “outside of yourself” ….

and assess your exterior image.

Don’t you like what you see?

Aren’t you a prick?

So you don’t like yourself very much?

What if you are placed in this situation:

you are a sick dog thrown in one corner and your psychotic master is brutally kicking and maiming you ..

Would you snarl, bite and fight back ….the animal instinct in you that demands you stay alive …to survive?

Bet you do.

Take a simple plot of survival, amid a chaotic world that is infested with the deadly viral pandemic.

Throw in 2 eye candy couples.

Put these anti-heroes in a car and send them on a journey of survival because the entire world is dying from a deadly, unexplainable virus assault .....

put on your breathing mask and along the way, trust no one, help no one.

This is the name of the game, a horrific one, if you want to stay alive because everywhere, most infected people are already dead.

CARRIERS picks up after a contagious unnamed disease has wiped out most of the world’s population.

In the hope of finding someplace isolated, four friends are making their way to Turtle Beach where two of them, brothers Brian and Danny, spent their summers growing up.

They abide by a set of rules that is supposed to keep them all alive and uninfected.

But the rules aren’t perfect, trust me, especially when you break them.

The SURVIVAL RULES are simple:

Mind your own business. Don’t be kind.

Pick up a stranger along the way, and you stand a good chance of confronting a possible carrier.

Even when your girlfriend is infected, you best dump her out in the desert to lessen the burden.

Even when your own brother is infected, you must shoot him in order that you stay alive.

This is the name of the game.

Kill or shoot if you wanna live.

No regrets, as it is the survival of the fittest.

There, I have told you all.

You won’t like yourself very much, after the show.

In most of us, there’s this mean streak, applicable in all situations.

I stab you, you stab me.

Is there such a word in this selfish world called REAL FRIENDS, much less DEVOTED BROTHERS when you have only one choice to stay breathing?

You live, I die.

You die, I live.

CHOOSE.

(Now go watch this gritty, fast-paced and brutally shocking thriller directed by ALEX and DAVID PASTOR).
