A virus is quickly wiping out all vestiges of civilization and civility. It has come to the farm belt; where folks so far haven't resorted to rampages of looting and killing. A roving gang wearing bunny masks; and stuff, kill a small farming community. They take the meager supplies they find there; and assumedly drive off to find another group of victims. The film is a series of flashbacks, from "before the fall". We lose momma, then the pretty house in the suburb. Then, I gave up. It was depressing, and it was repeating a storyline everyone already knows.

Warning: Spoilers
I created an account here a while ago, but this is my first review.
I have a thing for end-of-the-world, apocalyptic films. Probably because in comparison to this type of film, everyone, including me, is doing better than the characters in these films. "Threads" is the gold-standard of this group, in my opinion, and is currently on Amazon for free. Most times it's hard to find on any streaming service.
The movie under review here is shockingly bad. There are a handful of well photographed scenes, with some decent fade-ins and outs. This explains my two-star rating. The rest of this thing is so badly acted, poorly paced, terribly edited, awfully scripted, and terrible, that it's not even on an amateurish level.
I guess this is a bit of a spoiler, but the revenge scene near the end, where our hero does his duty, is pitifully directed. The hero just waits for the villain to come back at him, instead of continuing his rightful assault. You'd have to see it to understand.
But this film is not worth watching for any reason.
