Pontypool - 2008
Seen this compared to The Signal, which I enjoyed, so decided to give it a go. Definitely has an interesting take on infection and viral spread, little bit confusing though. I liked it for the most part, not really exceptional but I didn't get bored and it kept my attention.
The fact that it takes place pretty much entirely within a small town radio station I'm a bit on the fence about though. This might be a reason why some people might not like it and get very bored. I got tired of the same setting sometimes throughout myself, but I don't think it would have been the same movie at all if it wasn't. Something about not knowing what's going on outside other than the phone calls and the helicopter reporter, made me feel like I could relate to the characters by being confused as to what was happening and the disconnection to the outside world.
The ending was very underwhelming to me though, and seemed to not fit right with the rest of the movie. Last couple minutes almost felt comical. Overall it was alright, and I like seeing movies try to break away from the norm. Didn't use shock scares, or gore (although it has one pretty good scene), and relied more on suspense, which I like as well.
