Another sneak peek at sci-fi thriller "The Crazies" has been shared through a new clip. Debuted by Yahoo! Movies, the snippet highlights how the inhabitants in a small city turn into mindless killers and a couple who tries to survive from the danger.
Sheriff David Dutton and his wife Judy are living the American Dream in a small Midwestern town. But, what seems to be a picture-perfect life goes horribly wrong when a mysterious toxin pollutes the water supply and the residents begin to succumb to an uncontrollable urge for violence and the horrific bloodshed escalates into anarchy.
As the military uses deadly force in an attempt to contain the epidemic to stay in the town, the couple along with an assistant at the medical center named Becca and David's deputy Russell find themselves trapped in a once idyllic town they can no longer recognize. With no one else to trust and the fear contracting the illness, they are forced to band together in a nightmarish struggle for survival.
A remake of George A. Romero's 1973 film of the same name, "The Crazies" has Timothy Olyphant and Radha Mitchell taking the roles of David Dutton and Judy Dutton. They are joined by Danielle Panabaker who stars as Becca, and Joe Anderson who plays Russell. Directed by "Sahara" helmer Breck Eisner, this horror movie will open wide in U.S. theaters on February 26, 2010.
