Right At Your Door


After multiple dirty bombs are detonated, spreading deadly toxic ash across Los Angeles, Brad (Rory Cochrane) inadvertently quarantines his wife, Lexi (Mary McCormack) outside their new home by safely sealing himself inside. With the city under siege and Martial Law in affect, Brad and Lexi struggle to survive with little supply, limited time and no information—all the while separated by thin doors and thinner sheets of plastic. When “help” finally does arrive, it appears to be anything but.

I picked this up the other day and it was pretty crazy and I really enjoyed it.

Spoiler:
The ending was a little over the top though, not a bad ending, but you can tell they wanted to really give it a twist in the worst way.

Recently watched it. Decent movie. Very interesting premise. I would like to see this made by someone with more experience and with a bigger budget.

I didn't really like the end though:

I didn't understand what he did to cause his house to become an incubator for the virus. Were they suggesting that the virus multiplied because his house had no circulation?

Rory Cochrane has been one of my personal favorites since Dazed and Confused and Empire Records.

THey seeled the house up and with no electricity it made the house like a humidor and when the glass got broke, ash came in and the virus was in the ash and the moisture caused the virus to grow at a radip rate. It is like mold spreading. The more moist the better.

I've never heard of a virus multiplying like that without a host, only bacteria.


Nonetheless, it’s interesting to ponder what would happen to a large city if this happened. Communication, logistics, panic, etc.
