Are you crazy?

A lot of people had told me about the movie “The Crazies” and how it was so good and scary and that I should go see it so I did. It was definitely not what I expected to see for such a great movie. It was like the movie “I am Legend” where there is a disease and people start going crazy and start killing people. So for those who have not seen this movie, it came out on February 26, 2010 and is rated R for bloody violence and language. Now let me tell you guys a little more of the background of it. David Dutten is the sheriff of a town called Ogden Marsh; this town is a nice little town with happy citizens (nothing new right?). It all started one day during a school baseball game, a man comes with a loaded shotgun. Then, another man locked his wife and young son in the closet and burnt down his whole house. Within days, the whole town was transformed into an asylum; people who once had lived like normal people were turned into blood-thirsty killers that would hide in the darkness with guns and knives. The government soon got involved and the separated the infected people with the non-infected people and put them in different areas with the tension of killing everyone. At the end the come to find out that the airplane that had fallen in the river had contaminated the river, so everyone that had drank water that came from that river had become infected with this weird disease. The government wanted to kill everyone because since this was such a small town, no one would know if something happened to it and the government didn’t want this crazy news going into other towns just because of their mistake. Not only is this movie like another “I am Legend” were some random disease comes and kills everyone but like the movie “The Happening” where the plants kill people. It has to do with nature and diseases killing the human race. To those who have seen this what you think of this movie?
