The Carrier Movie Review

Smalltown Sleepy Rock is ideal family-raising turf until a plague mysteriously blights inhabitants, and townspeople are out to exterminate all potential carriers. The disease is transmitted by touch, so the population has taken to wrapping their bodies in plastic (pre-Twin Peaks) to avoid any potential infection from others (sound familiar?). Well orchestrated mob scenes as the town disintegrates into hysteria in their quest to “Kill the Carrier!” Filmed on location in Manchester, Michigan.

1987 (R) 99m/C Gregory Fortescue, Steve Dixon, Paul Silverman; D: Nathan J. White. VHS, Beta NO
