    I ended up watching an interesting take on zombie movies tonight-- a 2017 Irish film called The Cured. The film takes place at the end of an outbreak after a cure has been found when there's huge social unrest over over how-- or if-- the former zombies can be re-integrated into society.

    Any really good zombie movie is a parable & The Cured delves into the lingering effects of violence and de-humanization of others.

    #15 The Cured This is a thoughtful and somber Irish movie about what happens when zombies are cured and integrated back into society. The performances and well built tension make this an interesting watch. #hooptober #hooptoberxiii

    I will watch the video in a bit. But I remember watching this film when I was like 9 on TV. I didn't really understand the plot I got up to the Cured Mystique scene and switched to a different channel because 9 Year Old me was bored as hell and wanted to see cool fights but got naked women instead.

    Sadism and blind fucking cruelty that makes me realize that The Cured is a perfect fucking zombie movie.

    Fun fact: the movie also got a bootleg Irish sequel, the Cured (2017). It too lives in an understated register

    There's a truck sitting outside my house which Elliot climbed into in the movie The Cured. I'm not sure how to measure that in Kevin Bacons. Lol

    #zombiemovieoftheday The Cured deals with re-integrating “cured” zombies back into society. If that sounds familiar, that’s because the British show “In the Flesh” did it first… #TheCured Ireland/France, 2017 #zombies #zombiemovies 215/1904

    huh! I'm definitely curious though it reminds me a bit of Doomsday (2008,) I get the impetus to not go FULL "end of the world" with it all but preferring Weeks to Days gives me some pause, honestly to me the 3rd film in the trilogy will always be The Cured (2017)

    The Cured- Feels weird to watch pre-transition Elliot Page footage, but this is a great zombie movie. Not a subtext coward about structures of rehab and politics of sheltering surrounding the vulnerable minorities.

    I saw a video at one point talking about a movie called "The Cured" that centered around "zombie outbreak was contained, can the infected reintegrate/would they be allowed to". I feel like society today would be capable of locking something like this down... although 2020 tells a different story...

    Just watched The Cured, a zombie movie from 2017 Great movie, wasn't a big fan on how things progressed in the middle of it but still was a very good watch That and Maggie from 2015 are probably the most unique takes on the zombie genre I seen and will be great inspiration for me

    The re-integration of zombies into human society is something that is usually played for jokes. Not so for The Cured, which is about as self-serious as a zombie movie can get. It is mostly upheld by some solid acting, but I still was only half interested in The Cured. Final rating:★★½ - Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole.
