Additional Information
Three years after a massive government cover-up involving a parasitic outbreak in a small seaside town, a reporter unearths chilling footage that reveals the terrifying truth in this found footage-style shocker from Oscar-winning director Barry Levinson. On July 4th, 2009, the town of Claridge, Maryland experienced an unprecedented biological disaster. An isopod parasite typically found in fish somehow found its way into a human host. As the town gathered for its annual Independence Day celebration, the parasite began to spread at unprecedented speeds, consuming its victims from the inside out. Now witness the terrifying events that unfolded that fateful holiday weekend as captured on the security cameras, mobile phones, and webcams of the people who witnessed them firsthand, but never lived to tell their stories.
Reviews
The Guardian UK - Levinson has always been acutely interested in the minutiae of human behaviour, and it's this concern that makes THE BAY the triumph that it is., NPR - This astonishingly effective environmental nightmare is based on reasoning that, if you've been following the science, seems all too possible., Entertainment Weekly - One hell of a creepy little eco-horror picture.
