Scientists and executives are trapped in a locked-down conference center when a mutating virus creates hive-minded infected. The US R rating and UK 15 certificate both flag bloody violent content and strong horror imagery, including fungal body-horror transformations and relentless chase set pieces. Language spikes during panic, while romance and substance use are not the focus. A loud, graphic survival thriller in the vein of Yeon Sang-ho's zombie films.
Uplifting themes
Characters weigh sacrifice and cooperation while debating how to protect the wider public Professor Se-jeong leads survivors with scientific focus, although the ensemble also makes ruthless choices
Story (may spoil tone)
Professor Se-jeong is thrust into a bloody nightmare when a rapidly mutating virus is released during a biotech conference causing authorities to seal the facility. Trapped inside with no escape, Se-jeong along with a small group of survivors must fight to stay alive while the infected undergo horrific transformations.

Talk after watching
- Survivors debate whether killing the first infected patient is necessary. When does science ethics collide with public safety?
- The infected mimic and coordinate like an ant colony. How does that make them scarier than classic slow zombies?
