Rating: 2.5/5 -- If Cronenberg's not yet a dead ringer for his iconic dad, he's taken an intriguing first step. Full Review

Cronenberg keeps coming up with clever new details of ANTIVIRAL's milieu...

As a writer and director, Brandon utilises the familiar themes and aesthetics with ambition and assurance, making body horror his own grotesque but galvanising cinematic playground. Full Review

How sick can fans of a celebrity get? Very, answers "Antiviral." Imagine fan fetish culture metastasizing. A pox on consumers and capitalists alike, Brandon Cronenberg sneers. Full Review

The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree in Brandon Cronenberg's feature directorial debut....Very clever...and very cold.

Rating: 2.5/5 -- Eventually the clammy spell of this handsomely designed but solemnly paced movie begins to wear off, and you long for a little action or at least some fresh air.

The cinematic equivalent of a museum piece - amazing to look at and exquisitely polished, but ultimately untouchable and completely unrelatable. Full Review

Product Description:

A man who smuggles celebrity viruses to ravenous fans gets infected with the same bug that killed a media darling, and becomes locked in a deadly race against time while also ending up being the target of biological collectors. Syd March (Caleb Landry Jones) works for the Lucas Clinic -- a company that reaps a tidy profit by infecting willing clients with viruses taken from their favorite celebrities. Earning a little extra cash on the side by using his own body to smuggle out popular microbes, Syd finds himself in mortal danger after he infects himself with a pathogen taken from Hannah Geist (Sarah Gadon) -- a gorgeous superstar who later dies as a result of her illness. Now, it's only a matter of time before Syd succumbs to a similarly gruesome fate. When Syd's shady clients and a rival company discover he's carrying a bug that could revolutionize the industry, he must fight back with the only weapon he has -- his own virulent blood.
