Contracted (2013)

Pretty Good

Excellent adaptation.

Did you people see the same film I saw?

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

I'm not giving a summary because not quite sure how to lay out the plot. So straight to my opinion. Seems most reviewers here have pointed out my main gripes. The fact that not even her mother insists she see a doctor is a point I couldn't get past. She comes home after having a drink at the bar and wow, her mom is perceptive about that but can't see or smell her rotting away?? She even stands in the bathroom while her daughter is vomiting blood and asks if she's pregnant!! And I'm of the same opinion as others who pointed out the friends' non reactions, the inept doc, and the stalker who obviously has no sense of sight or smell as he gets it on with her. The goof section here has covered a couple of errors in logic I was going to point out so no need for that, either. So why am I even writing this? I suppose to air my frustrations but also, I just had to comment on the sunglasses. Can she fidget with them one more time because someone may have missed the first few hundred times! Lol. Ok so this isn't much of a review but since IMDb tossed my beloved message boards, I have no where else to go. Overall, it's not the worst thing I've seen. At least I was never bored. Incredulous but not bored. I will probably watch it again some night even if just to hate-watch. There were ways to fix these problems without having her confined to a hospital. She ran from everyone at least once anyway so why not because they were forcing her to get help? Oh and if your doc ever tells you to stay away from others for at least 24 hours, according to this film, that means you can go see everyone you know and even have maggot sex!! (Please don't go by the logic of this film) Positive points? I liked her transformation. Or rather, degeneration. Unlike the characters, I noticed it!

I kept watching this movie--wanting it to get better. It didn't. I wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone. Even my dog got up and walked away. I had so many questions and not one answer. This could have been a great thriller, but from the opening scene to the very end, this movie is confusing. It's all over the place with plot holes the size of the Grand Canyon. I think the director and producer realized they were in over their heads with this one, but kept pushing forward. Watch at your own risk.

Why does everyone hate this movie? It was disturbing, gross and terrifying. If you didn't want that then you shouldn't have watched a horror movie. I thought it was fantastically gross. I liked the real world setting. It's not the best horror movie, but it certainly isn't the worst.

So many negative slams on this movie. I liked it and didn't know what was going on until the end. I didn't read the negative fodder until after I watched it and I didn't watch the tracer. I bet that most of the negative reviews are from people watching 5 minutes of it on a pirate channel. I found this film to be one of the better Horror films and the story was great. Najarra did an amazing job in this film. I loved the ending, that's why I gave it 8 stars.
