This thoughtful, low-key exploration of our darker survival instincts is too conventional and unfocused to fully engage our emotions.

Put into extremely limited release by Paramount Vantage after spending years in studio lockdown, Carriers has moments of genuinely communicable horror and thus deserves better than a de facto theatrical quarantine.
