I love it! We're in deep fucking shit, Billy!!

It's one of my favourite films, I love a good disaster movie.

It's based on a book called The Hot Zone, by Richard Preston.

Oh I LOVE this movie! Kevin Spacey, Dustin Hoffman, Morgan Freeman - what's not to like! Love every minute of it, have seen it a scary number of times! And the cheesy dialogue just makes it even better!

Is it based on a book Stratter? Didn't know that, ...yep not to Mention a Pre fame Patrick Dempsey and Donald Sutherland. It came out when i was 5, but saw it slightly older approx 8, loved it ever since! ! ...criminally underrated!

Very loosely based, the book is a good, terrifying read by itself.

It's a non-fiction account. They are always more terrifying tbh.

ChoochiWhoo · 18/03/2015 20:28
