The ‘Infection’ Spreads This April

For the first time, a zombie plague ravages Venezuala, and it sets the apocalyptic devastation against a backdrop of the very real sociopolitical turmoil ravaging the country in Infection. “After an outbreak of a new strand of the rabies virus turns the population into crazed, bloodthirsty cannibals, a young doctor finds himself separated from his son, with the rapidly decaying city and sprawling countryside standing between them.

Catch Infection on Digital and DVD on April 14, 2020, from Dark Sky Films.
