Rabid (2019 film)

Rabid is a 2019 Canadian body horror film directed and co-written by Jen and Sylvia Soska and starring Laura Vandervoort, Ben Hollingsworth, and CM Punk.

After a young fashion designer, Rose, suffers a disfiguring accident, she undergoes an experimental stem cell skin and tissue graft treatment performed by Dr. William Burroughs.

After the epidemic spreads and Chelsea kills Gunter and is shot by police, Brad and Rose go to Dr. Burroughs to check on anomalies in her skin graft.

In February 2016, Jen and Sylvia Soska were hired to direct a remake of David Cronenberg's 1977 horror film Rabid, with producers Michael Walker, Paul LaLonde and John Vidette.
