A Disappointing Continuation
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
View MoreStory: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Blistering performances.
Out of my good nature i'm giving it 2 stars but I don't think it even deserves that. This movie is almost an hour and 15 minutes long and seems like decades! This is the same clichéd military experiment gone wrong, now commanding Clint Eastwood / John Wayne wannabe hero wants revenge from the government by finding proof on a remote island full on virulent zombies! The protagonist is like Mr. Macho Man no one can hurt me and then the evil government and the whole hijacking for the good of humanity etc etc stuff, probably seen it a million times and if you miss this flick I guess it won't hurt at all.People seriously speaking nothing to see here move along. 2 out of 10 that is all! @evilspellz

The Millions dead are the people who are in the radius of the cloud of the stupid NRX drug that this whole story is based on. In the minds of this films production team showing down town Vancouver should be enough for most viewers to think they are seeing a vast Metropolis. It is this that is supposed to make you think that Millions of people were infected, and things spread out from there. This is a very bad movie really there is nothing here for anyone to Enjoy. You have a very forced story that all of the actors seem confused about as they deliver their lines, and run around acting afraid of each other shouting, and shooting. I would not recommend this movie because it just isn't good enough. The sound is even re-dubbed, and badly, it has that unconnected feeling that should not still happen today. If you are looking for a good action movie with an outbreak story line, then there are lots of better choices. Even The Crazies which this is in a way emulating is better than this.
View MoreToxin is not as bad as Flesh Wounds and this is the only good thing I can say about it. So lets begin: they pretty much covered all the basic moves in a zombie/action movie, and if one is familiarizated with this kind of films, the road will be straight with no bumps ahead. Nothing new whatsoever, just that so tired formula, applied over and over again, that I fail to see how this could even be put in the category "we all have to start somewhere". For 2014, even with a minor budget, this is bad, this is too low to be noticed by anyone and if so, I doubt someone will actually see any good in it.Therefore my advice, unless you are a huge zombie devourer, look elsewhere. Lately some better zombie movies came out, like: Open grave, The returned, even Cabin fever 3.Cheers!
View MoreRight, well I was lured in by the promise of zombies when I sat down to watch "Toxin". And boy, was I disappointed with this movie, so much in fact, that I think I made it just about halfway through the movie.Not only is this movie awfully devoid of zombies (sure, there were some angry people running around with theater blood on their faces yelling and growling at people), but it was also incredibly boring and had a really dull storyline.The movie brandishes "Millions infected, countless dead". Yeah, where exactly?It should be said that the performances in the movie were so-so, nothing overly impressive here, and truth be told, then I have seen worse elsewhere. But when it comes down to it, then the actors and actresses had absolutely nothing to work with here script-wise or storyline-wise.This movie was wooden and horribly forcibly scripted. And there was nothing enjoyable or entertaining to be found here. It was a struggle even just to get to about halfway into the movie, and I must admit that I dozed off every now and then.If you enjoy zombie movies, then stay well clear of "Toxin".
