Plot

In Ogden Marsh, Iowa, Dr. Judy Dutton finishes paperwork at the local hospital alongside employee Becca Darling while her husband, Sheriff David Dutton, enjoys a local high school baseball game. Dutton’s deputy, Russell Clank, spots Rory Hamill, a resident, entering the outfield with a gun. David tries to get him to drop his weapon but is forced to shoot and kill Rory. David and Judy begin to notice strange behavior in other town residents; they are slow to respond to questions and repetitive in their answers. The next night, Bill Farnum, a local farmer, kills his wife, Deardra and son, Nicholas.

David and Russell investigate a dead soldier who is found in the woods and eventually find a crashed plane that has leaked a toxin into the water supply. Infected residents become extremely aggressive, attacking and killing other people. David tries to convince Judy to leave town but they are captured by soldiers and taken to a temporary military facility at the high school. Judy says that they are being checked for fevers and speculates the infection is a virus. An alert goes off when Judy is examined and she is taken away to be quarantined. She tries to explain that her fever is due to pregnancy, but is ignored and sedated. She wakes up strapped to a gurney as the perimeter of the facility is breached. The military personnel evacuates, leaving her and a room full of infected patients behind, including Becca.

Meanwhile, David escapes from a group of people being released and rejoins Russell. The two go to the high school and get there just in time to save Judy and Becca from the infected high school principal Ben Sandborn, who is killing the patients in their beds. The group begins walking out of town, hiding from both the infected and the military along the way. During their elusion of the military, the group is ambushed by a group of infected at a car wash and Becca is killed. Eventually, Russell begins to show signs of infection and then sacrifices himself so that David and Judy can escape.

David and Judy arrive at a truck stop to collect supplies and hopefully find a working vehicle. They learn that the military also killed people who were not infected. They survive another encounter with the infected and escape in a truck as the military destroy Ogden Marsh by a massive explosion. David and Judy reach Cedar Rapids. A satellite view of the Earth shows the words “initiate containment protocol” as they are entering city limits, as well as the name and population of Cedar Rapids .

Kritikan Aku...

Filem ini wajar ditonton kerana byk pengisian n btl2 menginsafkan kita. Masa mula2 decide nk tgk wayang aku n da geng nk tgk shutter island but terdetik dlm hati nk tgk trailler dulu la mcm mane...tgk2 the crazies lg nampak best n percaturan tak sia2... best sgt2...

cume terdetik dlm benak fikiran mcm mane ye kalo semua tu btl2 terjadi kt tempat kita... mcm mane aku nk slamatkan family,saudara maraku n kwn2?

sanggup ke kita tgk diorg semua dibunuh kejam semata2 satu wabak/virus yg tak sengaja disebarkan melalui kapal terbang yg terhempas? adakah semua tu akan btl2 terjadi kalo ade virus mcm tu? adakah koloni manusia akan dihapuskan mcm tu? askar2 yg diarahkan untuk menghapuskan koloni manusia tu mcm tak de hati perut je...main tembak je main bakar je... tp itulah kenyataannya.

eeee seram n menakutkan... mintak jauh la semua tu...

kepada yg blm menonton filem ini cpt ketinggalan, best sgt2 n u will learn something from dis film...

5 star for The Crazies...
