Quick Movie Review: SICK

 Plot: Parker and Miri head to the lake house during the pandemic. But they are not alone. 

People sure can do crazy things when there is a looming fear of falling sick. And not because they fear contracting a cold; but something far more serious. 

Parker and Miri are two friends who are supposed to be in quarantine during the pandemic but they rather spend their time by the lake, having fun. 

But there is someone watching them and hates that they aren’t following the rules the pandemic entails. 

SICK could have worked better as a dark comedy horror, in fact some of the scenes border on those very elements. Instead, it tries to be a very serious slasher movie with a message. 

The killer reveal is almost ridiculous but not entirely impossible to believe. Some people could go to any lengths to seek vengeance against the people who made them or their loved ones sick. Who knows? 

Still, it is one of the better pandemic-themed horror movies out there that deserves a watch. 

Scare Scale: 3/5
