Synopsis
Deranged (연가시, 2012) is a South Korean disaster thriller you can watch online on iFILM. Shrunken, skin-and-bone corpses keep surfacing along the Han River, and doctors trace the cause to a mutated parasite the press nicknames the "horsehair worm."
The thing hijacks the nervous system, driving its host to drink obsessively and then walk straight into the water to drown. As the outbreak spreads, pharmacies are stripped bare and the one drug that helps suddenly costs a fortune. Caught in the middle is Jae-hyuk, an ordinary pharmacist whose wife and kids start showing symptoms, so he races to find a cure while profiteers and officials cash in on the terror. Director Park Jung-woo blends medical horror with a sharp jab at the pharmaceutical industry, and Kim Myung-min anchors the film. Tense and grim, it's built for fans of Asian outbreak movies like Train to Busan. Stream Deranged (2012) online on iFILM.
