Two friends' tour of Europe takes a dark turn when one contracts a mysterious illness. Now, in a foreign land, they must uncover the source of his infection before it consumes him completely. Footage meant to be travel memories may now become evidence of one of the most shocking discoveries ever captured on film.
We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) by
The gradual ramping up of both the camera calisthenics and the gore quotient suggests a movie that’s been very deliberately paced, but that doesn’t mean that Afflicted really gets anywhere, except back to the very basics its state-of-the-art presentation is supposed to transcend.
The Hollywood Reporter by Frank Scheck
Displaying a rare inventiveness and technical facility in this increasingly tired, cliché-ridden format, Afflicted delivers a genuinely suspenseful ride while making you wonder how its more elaborate effects were achieved on its obviously low budget.
A low-budget horror-thriller that’s resourceful enough to wring a few fresh chills from a slender premise and a less-than-novel formal conceit.
While what will happen next is never especially interesting, how it will happen, and from what unusual angle, generates enough excitement to keep things intermittently lively.
RogerEbert.com by Simon Abrams
Unfortunately, Afflicted is as emotionally involving as a really accomplished special-effects sizzle reel.
15 years of research. 2 years of equipment design. 3 years of shooting. And one great movie to restore your sense of wonder.
