Chris Pine will do his level best to avoid being permanently typecast as Captain Kirk, by following up his job on the Enterprise with the lead in a post-apocalyptic horror movie called Carriers. The film takes place in a future where a deadly virus has spread across the entire globe. To avoid infection people avoid each other, traveling in small isolated groups afraid of coming into contact with others. Carriers follows four young people traveling to the beaches of the Gulf of Mexico, where they hope to wait out the virus in the seclusion of sun and sand. Of course, their journey doesn’t go as planned.

What really appeals to me about this is that there seems to be at least some effort to avoid the zombie movie clichés. The trailer hints that maybe zombies might be involved, but if they are at least it’s not the usual “the dead are coming back to life” bit which we’ve seen over and over and over again. This could be good.

Make your way over to Cinema Blend to view the trailer.
