This movie made me realise 3 things:
*1. I really like Body Horror
2. French/Canadian people are sick when Horror Movies are involved
3. The most disgusting movies are always free on YouTube*
The perfect marriage between "The Fly" and "Thanatomorphose" (which I read is somehow related to this one).
Casey comes back from a vacation trip with her "friends" Jill and Kirstine, one week before her marriage. In that trip, not only she ends up cheating on her fiancè, but she gets bitten by some unknown insect while swimming in a river. All of this is even recorded by her friend Jill, who is basically a btch, as she wanted to destroy Casey's marriage and steal her future husband.*
(Every single character but Kirstine here is, in a way, miserable)
Days after getting bitten, Casey's skin starts bubbling around the BITE, while she starts vomiting too much gluey stuff.
Day after day, the symptoms become more unhinged and problematic:
the real body horror starts when she grows an insect-like tail and starts vomiting both eggs and stomach acid (like a bug), loses her hair, eyes become yellow, skin becomes ruvid and her whole house becomes a giant humid and smelly nest for her unfertilized eggs.
And no one even noticed a thing. Everything was against her, [SPOILER] even the fact that the vomiting could be a symptom of a undesired pregnancy.
Too much time had passed from the point someone could realise those symptoms were not normal.
The characters are very well delined. Each has a role in the movie, and a reason for being upset, worried, or ... *just a careless btch.**
The drama has incredibly accompained the classic body horror tropes without sounding too heavy.
[SPOILER]
And the final detail, with the eggs finally cracking into living insects because the host was 1. male and 2. alive is somehow biologically notable.
Or maybe I'm just overthinking the biology of a non-existing parasitic insect.
