Giant spiders crawling into a van's broken window in Infested
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT To call Infested a creature feature is both literally true and somewhat misleading. The French horror film by writer-director Sébastien Vaniček is, at the literal level, about an apartment building that becomes the hunting ground of absurdly dangerous spiders. But that's only part of what's going on in this movie, and perhaps its weakest element.
Infested Actually Takes The Time To Develop Its Characters So we really care when things take a turn After a killer prologue showing how smugglers catch these spiders in a Middle Eastern desert to sell on the black market, we meet Kaleb , the poor soul who purchases one from the back room of a local shop. We follow him for some time before any carnage begins and come to understand his life, and the lives of those around him.
He tries to nudge the other young men around him away from that, too, but the pressure is clearly there. And there's a gnawing sense that his good intentions might not matter — one neighbor, the building's voice for white male hostility, treats him like he's dealing drugs anyway. They certainly matter to us, though.
