One of the most common fears people have is arguably that of spiders, and Infested the title alone is enough to make anyone’s skin crawl takes full advantage of this. Indeed, Shudder‘s newest film deftly maintains throughout its runtime that all-too-familiar anxiety of feeling like something is crawling up your arm, thrumming with a steady paranoia as the characters duck around web-covered corners. In this way, it essentially operates as a great survival movie that skates into creature-feature territory, while also weaving in psychological and body horror elements. That said, Infested‘s most remarkable trait is how, amid all this, it somehow still finds space to show us a more sinister evil than the eight-legged monsters.
