Virus (1999) Review - 5/10 Rating

Virus is exactly the kind of late-90s sci-fi horror film people forget exists until someone mentions it and suddenly everyone remembers the nightmare robot monsters. Jamie Lee Curtis and Donald Sutherland bring real weight to the madness, while the practical creature work still impresses. It is messy and loud, but the biomechanical horror concept is genuinely creepy. Strange, underrated and perfect midnight-movie material.
