The Bay [HD]

Freaking Awesome!
It is what it is but for plague movie lovers this was very well done. I liked it better than Contagion. It's not a deep and meaningful look into the human experience, it's a plague flick. I thoroughly enjoyed it though I think I'm going to be getting my steamed blue crabs from North Carolina for a while. Serious ick factor if you're a local, like I am ,but still, it was totally worth the time spent to watch it.

Much Better than Expected
I was a little hesitant about choosing this movie based on the reviews that were posted. Frankly, I think they did a great job. The acting was professional and the film quality was first-rate. I don't claim to be a movie aficionado but I know what I like. This movie was well worth my time.

Not easily creeped....
When I heard about this movie, it was in passing and I hadn't given it much thought. 'The Bay' as a title didn't give it the oomph needed to really intrigue me; however later, I came upon the trailer. It looked extremely interesting, and I was sad to see that it was in limited release. I am a big horror fan, and a fan of biological horror flicks like "Contagion". I am not a huge gore fan (Like the Saw franchise, that's not scary just disgusting).
Let me break down what I thought of the movie into good and bad. I promise I won't spoil anything.
Good:
1) Reality. This movie is not farfetched in the story. It has a believable twist that makes you feel for what's going on to these people. Also as someone with a biology degree, I understood a lot of what was going on, but that doesn't mean you need a degree to understand too. The movie is very good about explaining it in its own way.
2)Most of the characters had good build, and you were curious to see what happened to...
