The year is young, but it's safe to say that Virus will make my illustrious Top Ten list come December. I'm not talking about the Ten Best list either.
Jamie Lee Curtis and William Baldwin star in this ludicrous sci-fi/horror flick that is so lacking in originality, it made me sick. It unsuccessfully tries to fuse The Terminator, Aliens and The Abyss--with abysmal results. It's similarity to James Cameron films is not at all surprising, considering Virus was produced by Gale Ann Hurd (The former Mrs. Cameron). The film also shamelessly rips off The Borg premise from Star Trek: The Next Generation. Worst of all, Virus is the worst kind of thriller--the kind without any thrills.
