Elliot Page, Tom Vaughan-Lawlor, and Sam Keeley in The Cured (2017)
What happens when the undead return to life? In a world ravaged for years by a virus that turns the infected into zombie-like cannibals, a cure is at last found and the wrenching process of reintegrating the survivors back into society begins. Among the formerly afflicted is Senan (Sam Keeley), a young man haunted by the horrific acts he committed while infected. Welcomed back into the family of his widowed sister-in-law (Ellen Page), Senan attempts to restart his life -but is society ready to forgive him and those like him? Or will fear and prejudice once again tear the world apart?

    Stop hating
    It may have been done before, but frankly, what movie isn't a spin on something done before?

    The acting was fantastic, the plot was interesting, and engaging, and the location was unique and added to the film as a whole-cinematically.

    Give it a chance. Ellen Page always floors me with her range, and this movie was a wonderful portrait of her talent. I couldn't say who the 2 main actors are-as I'm not super familiar with Irish cinema, but they too were outstanding. Highly recommend.
