Great indie flick that hits the ground running. Keeps up a great pace with lots of good action and scares. The acting is great too. Well directed, really enjoyed it! I would recommend this movie and especially if you love zombies.

I'm a big zombie movie fan and I was happy to stumble upon When the Fever Breaks. The film focuses on one of most compelling scenarios in any zombie story -- what do you do when you're about to turn into one of them -- particularly when you have a child to protect? It's also a fun home survival setup which I find to be more enjoyable since it's easier to envision yourself in that situation (if there ever were a zombie apocalypse haha). The film is an indie so it's definitely a bit raw, but I tend to appreciate that in this genre since When the Fever Breaks and others like it can often bring a fresh take on things. Definitely worth your time for zombie movie enthusiasts like myself.

I happened to stumble upon the 2019 zombie movie "When the Fever Breaks" here late in 2020. And being a huge fan of all things zombie, of course I had to sit down and watch this movie from writers Lucy Clay and Tymaine Clay. Granted, I hadn't even heard about the movie prior to watching it, but it being a zombie movie was more than sufficient to make me sit down and watch it. And it turns out that "When the Fever Breaks" was just another generic zombie movie which borrowed heavily from "Night of the Living Dead", except it just didn't manage to reach that timeless classic zombie movie to the ankles. "When the Fever Breaks" just didn't bring anything new or interesting to the table, so it was essentially just stuff that has been done and seen countless times before in other, and better, zombie movies. The acting in the movie was adequate, taking into consideration that this was not a top of the line Hollywood production. At least it seemed like the actors and actresses involved in the movie were having fun. A zombie movie usually needs to have gory effects and good visceral gore, "When the Fever Breaks" didn't have either of that. It was low budget and low key effects, but at least it was slightly more than just people painted grey in the face and having colored darker circles around the eyes. I managed to endure through the ordeal, though I was hardly entertained, much less impressed. "When the Fever Breaks" is not a noteworthy addition to the zombie genre. My rating of "When the Fever Breaks" lands on a three out of ten stars. For a zombie movie, "When the Fever Breaks" just didn't pack enough of a bite, much less of a groan.

Perfect Zombie escapism for our times. It is a well acted and scripted indie horror. Just enough twists in the plot to keep you guessing. I recommend if you need a Zombie fix about now.

This movie has everything, Zombies, viruses, action, and suspense, and good action. Overall reminded me of "Night of the Living Dead".

Zombies are not the only enemy in the movie, friends can also be dangerous. Good acting, especially the kid, good directing. An example of how to keep an indie low budget horror in one location without many special effects.

Lovely low budget entry to the zombie apocalypse genre. Well paced, intense and fun. Decent performances.

First off, I'm by no means a big-time zombie fan at all. But, I have to say, I really enjoyed this indie film. I have to connect with a film right away otherwise I'm gone. Well I'm glad to say this little gem grabbed me right out of the gate and didn't let go. This is a super fun movie. I really enjoyed the acting and the way this film was shot. Bravo to this indie fimmaking team. So this one get an easy thumbs from me!!

Genevieve Gearhart is excellent as Skye, a mother trying to protect her daughter in the middle of a zombie apocalypse, forced to trust a shady group of strangers. Cool fight scenes with some nice stylish touches, flashes of violence outbursts amongst the survivor group and other moments of terror. Timely and clever commentary on human behavior during the midst of a pandemic (even if that pandemic is filled with zombies).
