The Spore (2021)

When an idiot hears gunshots and screaming, instead of being cautious, he runs into the woods to investigate and cuts his leg. This is unfortunate since now he's infected by a spore, which he will be spreading to other unsuspecting individuals.

Twenty three minutes in and the only dialogue is from radio broadcasts heard by the characters. At fifty minutes, the sound goes out of sync. I’m not sure if it’s the streaming service or the film, but it seems par for the course.

The fungus is the most intelligent thing in the movie. People have no critical thinking or common sense.  Blood spurts in their face and they don’t clean it off.  Something threatening is near and they don’t shut the door. If you’re pulling out of the garage, but something runs across behind you, do you back out and use your headlights to illuminate the area, or do you get out of the car to check it out even though creepy weird things are happening around you? Everyone makes bad decisions.
