Rating: 2.5/5 --
If Cronenberg's not yet a dead ringer for his iconic dad, he's taken an intriguing first step.

Los Angeles Times
Cronenberg keeps coming up with clever new details of ANTIVIRAL's milieu...
A.V. Club
As a writer and director, Brandon utilises the familiar themes and aesthetics with ambition and assurance, making body horror his own grotesque but galvanising cinematic playground.

Trespass
How sick can fans of a celebrity get? Very, answers "Antiviral." Imagine fan fetish culture metastasizing. A pox on consumers and capitalists alike, Brandon Cronenberg sneers.

Chicago Sun-Times
The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree in Brandon Cronenberg's feature directorial debut....Very clever...and very cold.
Entertainment Weekly
Rating: 2.5/5 --
Eventually the clammy spell of this handsomely designed but solemnly paced movie begins to wear off, and you long for a little action or at least some fresh air.
New York Times
The cinematic equivalent of a museum piece - amazing to look at and exquisitely polished, but ultimately untouchable and completely unrelatable.

Product Description:
A man who smuggles celebrity viruses to ravenous fans gets infected with the same bug that killed a media darling, and becomes locked in a deadly race against time while also ending up being the target of biological collectors. Syd March (Caleb Landry Jones) works for the Lucas Clinic -- a company that reaps a tidy profit by infecting willing clients with viruses taken from their favorite celebrities. Earning a little extra cash on the side by using his own body to smuggle out popular microbes, Syd finds himself in mortal danger after he infects himself with a pathogen taken from Hannah Geist (Sarah Gadon) -- a gorgeous superstar who later dies as a result of her illness. Now, it's only a matter of time before Syd succumbs to a similarly gruesome fate. When Syd's shady clients and a rival company discover he's carrying a bug that could revolutionize the industry, he must fight back with the only weapon he has -- his own virulent blood.
