Over the past year I have become a much larger fan of genre films, maybe it’s because I now know they are called genre films, but I can’t recall ever coming across an Israeli genre film before. From the minds of directors Navot Papushado and Aharon Keshales comes Rabies, one of the first Israeli forays into the thriller/slasher films I have ever encountered, and it looks promising. It may not be anything groundbreaking but it sure as hell looks like everything you would want in movie where a psychotic murderer runs wild in the woods. Hit the jump to check out the synopsis and trailer.
A brother and sister, in their twenties, run away from home after their dark secret is discovered. They find temporary refuge in a deserted nature reserve. When the sister falls into a hunting trap, set by a psychotic killer, the brother sets out in a race against time to rescue her. A forest ranger and his old dog, two apathetic cops, four tennis players and a murderer, wandering carefree amongst his traps, will all be gradually drawn into a whirlwind of misunderstandings, fears and violence.
