Ok another oldie but goodie.
This movie is the Carrier, and to show you how old and underground you cannot find in on DVD in the states.
Ok the Plot Synopsis goes as follows:
In the little town of Sleepy Rock, everything is perfect except for one outcast who is hated because he "Burned his house down and killed his parents to get the inheritance". Jake is that poor guy and one night a black monster attacks him in his house… this does not matter, it is just needed to give him everything he needs to make the outcasts pay for what they have done to him. Ok he isn’t that vindictive.
In reality he spreads a disease that tears a small town apart, by accident. He is the Carrier and everything he touches get infected with a flesh eating bacteria that eats animal matter. But it does not harm Non-organic or plant material, BUT it does infect non-animal matter, and any animal matter that touches anything infected gets eaten alive. Strangely enough it cannot cross matter, I.E. if a lamp post is infected, the light bulb would be unharmed. I know it sounds dumb, but it gets better.
No one knows who the guy carrying the virus is. The town becomes paranoid and everyone turns on everyone. The Religious family (Almost all dressed in white) gets involved in a war with the non-religious group (Mostly dressed in black, I wonder if there is a reason for this). They kill each other brutally with infected items until the doctor shows up with some reason.
Don’t worry, I wont spoil the moving ending for you.
If you check out the IMDB the review will tell you it is a reference to AIDS. Other than one or two things this does not make any sense, trust your favorite horror fan when I tell you it is more of a witch trial movie.
Anyway, if you can find this rarity, and are a fan of horror films that rely less on gore, then I suggest you pick this one up.
