Contracted: Phase II-360P

Contracted: Phase II

The transformation happens through several stages over a few day so you feel for the slow suffering of the infected person and wonder what's going to happen to them next and if they are going to survive the race against time. Betterthan most zombie movies for this reason. You need to write at least 10 lines here so let me see... The first film was kept the suspense up as you didn't know what was coming. This film didn't have the same amount of suspense or shock appeal but the unfolding plot and extra gore makes up for it.

Contracted: Phase II (2015) ** 1/2 (out of 4) Riley (Matt Mercer) finds himself growing violently sick from the virus he contacted so he sets out to find the man he believes is spreading it around. CONTRACTED: PHASE II is a sequel that picks up where the original film left off but to me this here is more of a remake than anything else. I enjoyed the first film a great deal and this one here is basically just a copy of it, although it's not nearly as good. With that said, if you enjoy these body harming horror films then there's enough violence and gore here for you. I think the biggest issue with this film is that it really doesn't offer us anything we didn't see in the first film. I'd also argue that we don't care for Riley like we did Sam in the first film. However, this type of film is made to make your skin crawl and there are several disgusting scenes here. As with the first there's a lot of gore, blood vomiting and creepy things being dug out of flesh. The violence and gore certainly matches the first film and it will keep fans into the picture. The performances were all good and especially Marianna Palka and Anna Lore. Director John Forbes does a good job with the material and delivers a well-made and professional looking film. CONTRACTED: PHASE II isn't a masterpiece but it delivers what you'd expect it to.

There seem to be a zillion flicks that come out of nowhere. They show up on youtube etc. All the actors and actresses look under 20 and you get the feeling they paid the production company to be in the movie. 95% of these things are hopelessly derivative and uninspired...they just crawl along. This one though....a horror movie...has a few fresh twists despite it's reliance on the zombie/contagion genre. It's good for what it doesn't do. It has pro editing.....it moves right along. We don't have mediocre photographers forcing us to spend 2 minutes looking at a tree cause they think it's a well set up shot. It's sense of horror derives from-primal fears we all have to some degree in this paranoid age where everyone assumes 3veryone else is a virus... It never gets artsy or pretentious...just serves itself up for what it is....namely, an effective low budget horror flick with terse effective plotting. nicely done

I liked the first one, so I was thinking the sequel would be tired. Although it didn't totally introduce anything nee, it was really enjoyable to watch. Holy cow, it was gross. There were up in your face gross out moments where you need to look away. But can't. But should. Acting was pretty good, storyline was direct continuation of the first one, and they did it nicely. Don't expect it to be better than the first, but if you liked the first, then you'll like this.

I was a big fan of the 2013 "Contracted" movie by director Eric England, and thus I was really anxious to see the continuation of the movie as the first movie left us with on a cliffhanger. Right, well I must admit that my expectations were shot down quite fast here at the hands of director Josh Forbes. Whomever wrote the script for the sequel clearly weren't as intense in their creative writing as those working on the first movie. This 2015 sequel was at best a mediocre movie that fumbled and stumbled all around as it tried to pick up the cliffhanger of the 2013 movie and then turned it into something that was nowhere as interesting or intense as the first movie. No, they took a very good idea and mashed it into something that was laughable and generic at best. While the movie does continue on from where the first movie left, then the storyline in "Contracted: Phase II" just was a scrambled mess of trying to show more infections in people and trying to piece in some background of how this infection came into being at all. The background story was just ludicrous, and it was actually infuriating that they opted for such a ridiculous approach to it all. Especially because it just unraveled everything that the first movie had built up so well. It should be said that the effects in "Contracted: Phase II" are adequate, and they are actually the thing that keeps the movie afloat and saves it from sliding down into a level of being less than mediocre. But effects can only do so much, especially when the storyline is taking a nosedive. The acting in "Contracted: Phase II" wasn't the most memorable of performances, and it certainly wasn't fully up to level with what was seen in the first movie. Perhaps it was because of the ludicrous storyline and script, because I do believe that the actors and actresses were doing fair enough jobs. "Contracted: Phase II" is a very dissatisfying sequel, and somehow I wish that I hadn't seen it, because it really was a laughable movie, and it tainted everything built up by the first movie. I will actually go as far as to say that watching "Contracted: Phase II" is definitely not a must, because letting the 2013 movie hang on a cliffhanger is a much more worthy ending to it. I was sorely disappointed with this movie, but stuck with it to the end to see it finished. And anything even remotely zombie is of interest to me. "Contracted: Phase II" manages to land a very mediocre five out of ten stars rating from me.
