Antidote (2021 film)

Antidote is a 2021 science fiction horror film written and directed by Peter Daskaloff along with Matthew Toronto.

Locked in her room, Sharyn begins communicating with her neighbor Everett via notes passed through a hole in the wall.

She witnesses a man with bleeding eyes being led through the hallway outside and hears Everett being attacked in his room.

In exchange for using the phone, Sharyn agrees to tell Dr. Hellenbach about her ex-boyfriend, Nico, a drug trafficker who committed suicide.

Rizzo comes to visit and tells her that he thinks the military is harvesting test subjects in order to develop immortal soldiers.

Hellenbach assures him that his file will be reviewed in three months but when Everett continues to argue his tongue is once again cut out.

They manage to avoid being caught by Dr. Hellenbach in the medication room, but several nursing staff recognize them and corner them in the hallway.

She finds her way to a residential home, but is followed by a staff member and eventually brought back to the facility.

He explains that he had been in a bad car accident resulting in broken ribs and neck injuries.

After releasing the minks, she burned the farm to the ground, but in the process killed the farmers that were still sleeping in the house.

She reveals that ten years ago, she accidentally killed her boyfriend and then framed his death as a suicide.

Sharyn confronts Dr. Hellenbach and finds him reading Dante's Inferno, in which sinners are cyclically tortured and healed.

A path across the lava begins to form as doctors attempt to resuscitate Sharyn's body on Earth.

Sharyn awakes in her hospital bed and is informed that she had been placed into a medically induced coma due to complications from the surgery and was clinically dead for about 15 seconds.

Once home, Sharyn looks online and finds an article on The New American Journal of Medicine's website related to Dr. Hellenbach.

Sharyn also finds articles related to Cassandra Franklin, who died following a mushroom poisoning.
