Shock jock Grant Mazzy has, once again, been kicked-off the Big City airwaves and now the only job he can get is the early morning show at CLSY Radio in Pontypool Ontario, which broadcasts from the basement of the small town s only church. What begins as another boring day of school bus cancellations, due to yet another massive snow storm, quickly turns deadly when reports start piling in of people developing strange speech patterns and committing horrendous acts. But there s nothing coming in on the news wires. Is this really happening? Before long, Grant and the small staff at CLSY find themselves trapped in the radio station as they discover that this insane behaviour taking over the town is actually a deadly virus being spread through the English language itself. Do they stay on the air in the hopes of being rescued or, are they in fact providing the virus with its ultimate leap over the airwaves and into the world?

Pour Grant Mazzie, animateur vedette de la radio de Pontypool, Canada, la journée s`annonce banale. Lorsqu`il prend l`antenne, il ignore que la petite ville va vivre l`apocalypse. Ce matin-là, la radio reçoit de nombreux messages d`auditeurs paniqués. La population semble gagnée par la folie, et se comporte de façon irrationnelle, prononce des paroles sans queue ni tête, puis commence à s`entretuer. Peu à peu, le danger se rapproche du studio, dont le personnel est bientôt pris au piège.

der abgehalfterte D-Schauspieler Stephen McHattie passt blendend in diesen megabilligen, D-klassigen Langweiler.

Spezieller Film, da er sich ausschliesslich in einem Radiostudio abspielt. Der Virus ist sehr originell. Irgendwie spannend und irgendwie langweiling.
Immer blauer Filter

Vielleicht habe ich den Film nicht begriffen, aber ich finde ihn ziemlich langweilig und der Typ mit dem Schnauz nervt. Die Schauspieler finde ich generell schwach, und den ständigen blauen Filter habe ich mittlerweile ziemlich satt.
