The Bay (2012)

A mysterious flesh eating virus hits a small American community, initially the symptoms are boils and skin rashes...soon though things deteriorate as the towns folk start dying as they are literally eaten from the inside!
The movie is filmed 'mockumentary' style and the build up of suspense and dread is well staged as you would expect from someone with the pedigree of  veteran director Barry Levinson (Rain Man, Good Morning Vietnam)
Gory, tense,eco-horror, the type of film you might have expected David Cronenberg to deliver.
Excellent.
