Contagion (2011) [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1598778/] is a movie in a
similar vein. It's about how an infection can start at one place, travel
halfway around the world, and infect multitudes from the initial patient
(carrier zero). One of the few movies my wife and I paid full price for at
the theatre a couple years back.

 

Also similar: Outbreak (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114069/), and Twelve
Monkeys with Bruce Willis (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114746).

Subject: [Michlib-l] need help finding biomedical thriller movies

 

The campus is developing programing around the book the Immortal Life of
Henrietta Lacks.   One group is pondering doing a movie night featuring a
title that explores some of the bio-ethics that the book raises. Or maybe
just developing a list of movies that individuals could watch on their own.

I need help!  Someone suggested Antiviral.
<http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2099556/?ref_=nv_sr_2>   Of course-
Frankenstein comes to mind, as bio--medicine gone mad.  But all there other
suggestions?

Thanks!
