Canada, of course, that is infected by parasites that turns the residents into mindless nymphos.\u00a0 This movie is balls out crazy, pun intended.\u00a0 There are so many horned up infected people in this, and it makes for some funny instances.\u00a0 The main character is a doctor that is trying to get to the root of the issue, and escape the building desperately.\u00a0 He scrambles around the building, running into infected residents and trying to save himself and his secretary.\u00a0 One of the funniest scenes to me, is when he runs down a stairwell, and suddenly there are twin girls on leases acting like dogs, butt naked.\u00a0 He just slowly turns around and runs back up the stairs.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div
