The not too distant future, a deadly virus has swept across Earth. Billions have perished. The survivors moved underground... 30 years on and plagued with guilt following a devestating crash, pilot Loki is coaxed back from the edge by his partner Sash. Together they must take on a new mission; go Topside. Retreive missing recon team. Hostility unknown. After a thunderous journey through the Earth's crust they discover the planet surface is not what it once was; only death survives. As they quickly uncover the fate that befell the first team, they are forced to make a choice; stay and die or stay and fight. But what will kill them first....the mutants or the virus?

I struggled to watch Infestation, which I consider to have little or no merit in any department whatsoever. The acting is wooden, the story line is a sad effort and the final product is dire. The front cover declares the film to be 'Awesome'. However, I do believe that 'Appalling' or 'Abysmal' would reflect a more accurate description. I was extremely disappointed with the whole affair and although I have rated it at 1 star, that's because there isn't a lower rating.

 Don''t waste your money.

What an absolutely miserable film. Terrible script, terrible acting, directing, terrible, well, everything. I have only two questions : 1. Why was this terrible film ever created? and 2. Why did anyone ever bother putting it on dvd? Seriously, don't waste your money. go buy something else instead.

 My cat could have thought up a better plot...

Well, I don't know where to start...

From the very second the film began I had the sudden realisation that it was money down the drain.

To begin with, the actors/actresses can't act to save their lives. I have seen better performances in primary school nativity plays.

The people who did the so called 'special effects' must have used something along the lines of a commadore 64.

The spaceship chase scene near the beginning was appalling, you couldn't tell what was happening and the only thing you could tell was that Loki (the main 'star') was just sitting in a mockup cockpit made from yoghurt pots and corregated cardboard boxes from Netto, pretending to fly.

Its gets even better when Loki and a team of 'soldiers' have to go on some kind of rescue mission to the surface, which has been uninhabitable by humans due to some kind of virus. I gritted my teeth and made myself watch but I felt it was going to get worse before it was going to get any better.

At this point you need to give the film your full attention as the plot basically loses the plot.

The rescue team have to find something on the surface and an earlier team has gone missing, (I could never grasp what it was they were supposed to be looking for, it musn't have been that interesting).

Anyway I was hoping this part would get slightly better because I was expecting to see deformed zombie like creatures roaming around a dead, bleak landscape hungry for human flesh. Instead the team find themselves wondering around what I can only describe as a desolate Pontins resort that looks as if its just about to be bulldozed to make way for a new housing estate.

I was just about to turn it off at this point when a little bit of action started.

One of the team members gets attacked by, as mentioned in another review, a couple of hoodies. This leads to the rest of the team walking around like headless chickens pretending to shoot their plastic guns at hoodies and bikers. There was no way the producers had enough in the budget to use blank firing guns, so if you look closely you can tell they just drew the gun fire on at a later date and added sound effects, and to make it look realistic the actors just shook their arms about to make it look like the gun was recoiling.

There was at no point in the film where I really cared about the main characters, and in fact found myself wishing that the zombies would just eat them for two reasons, 1) as they were so annoying, and 2) to make the film finish quicker.

All in all I give this effort minus 10 out of 10. I wouldn't watch it again even if I was paid to.

This film rocks! It is such a refreshing change for a film to deliver, never mind a low-budget film. This film has heart,energy, and aaaccctttion!!! and with the insightful directors commentary(gives Roddregez a run for his money) really enjoyed it! Highly recomended!

This Film is a masterpiece of storytelling, the low budget adds to the social commentary on the British Economy, the fact that such a brilliant film was made on such a low budget represents this further, with the gore and scares seemingly in place.

A brilliant Horror flick with some very underrated subtle economic representation.
