Infested

The film constructs its dread around the violation of the body's sanctity, relying on the visceral horror of an enemy that cannot be seen or fought. It explores the panic of a community dissolving from within, using the parasite as a blunt metaphor for societal decay.

What lingers after the credits is a primal unease, a phantom itch that speaks to the movie's simple, biological effectiveness. Those who tire of subtlety will find a straightforward, squirm-inducing creature feature. — MovieFinder Editorial
