Review of Outbreak (1995) by Roxanne R — 23 Sep 2008
In July of 1967, In Motaba River Valley, Zaire, a virus with a 100% mortality rate starts infecting people. The virus becomes known as the Motaba virus, and it's so deadly that it causes severe bleeding and liquefies internal organs, killing within 3 days.
The virus wipes out Motaba River Valley, and a devastatingly huge fire bomb is dropped onto Motaba River Valley in order to reduce the chances of further infection. The bomb was dropped on the orders of corrupt General Donald McClintock, even though an army surgeon, General Bill Ford, was against the idea.
27 years later, in 1994, there is another outbreak in Motaba River Valley.Now is up to Dustin Hoffman to not only find a vaccine but save these citizens from annihilation by the military! Every time I get sick I watch this dvd and realize that whatever ailment I may have does not compare to the Motaba virus- similar to hemorrhagic fever!! A classic.
