“Rabid” (*** out of four) was a chilling horror story about an aspiring fashion designer (Laura Vandervoort) who is horribly disfigured after an accident and undergoes an experimental stem cell treatment which restores her looks but soon turns her world upside down and she finds she’s a rabid and bloodthirsty killer which leads to an outbreak of rabies all across the city! Not great, as film tries to juggle a few too many different ideas and story threads, but definitely a cut above the norm, with good performances and lots of splattering effects. Stephen McHattie is superb as the villainous doctor who saves her.
