My mind is blank as to any contagion films I have seen (although I’m sure I have seen them). However, one I wish I had seen is “Zero Patience”.

I really enjoyed the movie The Crazies. I thought it was actually well-acted (which is rare for a scary movie) and I was on the edge of my seat at times.
I really loved 28 Days Later!
I’m really looking forward to seeing this movie! The cast is spectacular (Jude Law – yum!) and I like these types of movies. I really love the Resident Evil movies.
I liked Outbreak
I really like I am Legend
I enjoyed 12 Monkeys.
Do zombies count? Then I’ll give my tip of the hat to another TV series: The Walking Dead. If it’s a movie, Outbreak immediately comes to mind.
12 Monkeys is fantastic; Terry Gilliam is amazing. If we’re doing Zombie movies, gotta go with Dead Snow.
Like Michael said though, Outbreak is what comes to mind first of all.
Outbreak was also the first movie that come to mind! Also loved 28 days later.
So far, I’m liking 28 Days Later…
Anything with zombies will work for me, I liked Shaun of the Dead.
I liked Shaun of the Dead.
Definitely love 28 Days Later. I actually took a whole literature class on Plague and Pandemic fiction.
Pandemic drama? Angels in America. Technically a cable miniseries, but yeah. (rules didn’t say it had to be a fictional pandemic…
i really enjoyed the blindness!
haven’t watched a lot of films in this genre. outbreak comes to mind. looking forward to seeing this !
i think 28 days later is pretty much a classic in this genre.
