It's truly pathetic. I watched In The Flesh years ago. In the Flesh was about the Zombie outbreak being cured, but you had to take medication constantly. Supplies started to get low and a very interesting effect of people basically being racist against infected ensued. They didn't tout themselves as being so original as this DIRECT and INFERIOR ripoff does.And gosh look at how the false claims works! Half the reviews are about how breathtakingly original it is...it's as interesting an effect on the masses as either. People don't bother to look into claims these days, choosing instead to believe things as they're presented. In this case they believe the PR press, so they actually promote it.These people are the real Zombies.Go find the original it's called In The Flesh.

Some great acting in this ad of course Ellen Page is great as always. Refreshingly set in Ireland (3,045 kilometres from America, lols), this movie addresses the unanswered questions after a zombie outbreak - what happens if there is a cure - what happens to those to be reintegrated back into society - and how to deal with the community outrage against them? The movie also features 25% of the infected population who cannot be cured -and "humane disposal" is an option that is favoured by the army (who is managing the post-outbreak situation) and a populace who were previously harassed by these zombies. This movie feels like "28 Days Later" - it has a low-budget but oppressively gritty feel to it that brings these issues to the fore, and makes you think about these issues.

What can I say about this movie? Well... boring, unoriginal and waste of time. The acting was good, but unfortunately it couldn't save it.

I won't get into the allegorical aspects of how this movie ties zombies into the overall social aspect of, say, immigration or Northern Ireland.This review is simply to recommend this movie as one that covers all its basis quite well. Acting is spot-on, good pacing, soundtrack isn't overwhelming or distracting. For zombie fans, The Cured does advance this genre in how it looks at the horror from a different angle - that of the infected's perspective.
