Kim Myung-min, Kim Dong-wan, Moon Jeong-Hee, and Lee Hanee in Contamination - Tödliche Parasiten (2012)

Jae-hyuk is an ordinary man in his 40s. He works as a medical supplies salesman and is hassled by doctors all day. His brother Jae-pil is a detective that is not all that interested in public safety and spends most of his time moaning about the stock market. The discovery of a series of floating, gruesomely skeletal bodies around the country sparks hysteria. The police commissioner is disturbed to see CCTV footage of people jumping into water as if they were possessed, and drowning themselves. Time passes and hundreds of similar cases are reported, leaving officials stumped as to the cause of the deaths. The government declares a national emergency. Jae-pil joins the massive investigation and meets the mayor of a small town who claims he witnessed several men in work uniforms dumping infected dogs into the streams and realizes that there is a conspiracy behind the outbreak. Meanwhile, Jae-hyukÂ’s wife and children are showing the same symptoms as the victims, leading to a frantic search for medicine. Through Jae-pil he learns of a warehouse containing a potential cure in thousands and thousands of doses and heads there with no idea of what heÂ’s heading into.

Wissenswertes
Parasitic horsehair worms, or Nematomorpha, such as those which infect the victims in the movie do exist, although they only infect arthropods. Two species, Spinochordodes tellinii and Paragordius tricuspidatus, which infect Orthopteran insects, make their hosts drown themselves as depicted in the movie.

Pretty good infectious disease epidemic movie.

They did a pretty good job on making this epidemic disaster movie. The movie does a pretty good job on using Nematomorpha that infect people causing them to die from drowning in water. It really shows how dangerous these parasites are in the movie by how it cause a lot of deaths in a city and random bodies showing up in body of waters. The movie itself is suspenseful and thrilling with the characters trying to figured out how to cure people and heal them back up. There's one medicine that work and the main character try to find it for his family. Unfortunately it gets pretty tedious with the medicine keep getting destroyed by current characters in the movie. But I do like the climax of the movie on how it was resolve.
