Pontypool
HorrorMysterySci-Fi97 min
Shock-jock Grant Mazzy is expecting a routine morning at a basement radio station in the small Canadian town of Pontypool until scattered reports of violence start coming over the air. Stephen McHattie is Mazzy, a broadcaster stranded behind the mic as he and the station’s tiny staff try to make sense of a virus that seems to spread from word to word. Lisa Houle and Georgina Reilly are among the voices inside the station, where bad information, dead phone lines, and a growing panic outside turn a local talk show into a fight to understand what’s happening before it reaches the booth.
