One day, a virus puts all children, 9 and under, in a coma. Twice a day, at 10 o'clock, the coma-induced children, go through a seizure. This continues routinely for 10 years. Then, after 10 years, they wake up from the coma.
However, immediately, you'll start to see that they are not the same people as before. There's something sinister about them and they're zombie-like. When they start to show who they really are, they're out grabbing their hands on every living being.
The zombie victims get everyone except this group of people. It seems that their survival strategies are interrupted by the zombies. We soon learn that, like the Borgs in Star Trek, they have a hive mind. What's learned from one is learned by all.
While running around to survive, the surviving gang must decipher a priest's cryptic message that holds the key to this whole mess.
The story is simplistic but extremely cheesy. And the survivors are extremely idiotic. I mean, c'mon, give humans some credit that they won't do some stuff because that would just endanger their own lives and others as well. *The Plague* paints humans like moths to a fire...unable to break away from the hypnotic trance.

Boy, am I crawling out on a limb? I just watched this movie last night for the very first time, and I enjoyed it! I'm not saying it's a great movie, I wouldn't even say it was above average - it's not as disturbing as "Hellraiser", or as scary as watching "Candyman" alone, in the dark, late at night, for the very first time. But I also don't think it is nearly as bad as some of these reviews seem to indicate. One person said it was "predictable" - perhaps to them, but for me - I had to watch it until the very end before I knew what was going on. I thought there were enough "herrings" thrown into the mix to keep the audience off guard, but again, that is MY opinion. All I can say is the usual "safe" piece of advise to the potential viewer - use your own brain, make up your own mind, and never rely on somebody else's opinion as far as whether you will or won't give something new a chance. If it happens to be shown on TV, watch it, if you don't like it - turn it off! Personally, I think I've "discovered" more pleasant surprises by ignoring majority opinion and going my own way. I enjoyed it, so have others - you might, too! And if you end up not liking it - so what, not like it's the end of the world or anything.

Other reviewers have done a better job than I can to describe and warn you away from this film.
- No real gore, this isn't a showcase of gore technology or anything that is state of the art, it seems like a PG-13 rating that was aspiring for a G rating.
- No plot, intrigue or explanation of why all the children fall into a coma to wake up on the same day 10 years later and attack all non coma afflicted in a coordinated manner.
- No t&a, the actresses aren't even extraordinarily appealing, all the zombie comatodes are pale and ashen and the heroines weren't in any danger of winning Homecoming Queen even at Skankville High School !
- This movie is a travesty and should just be burned, it is the poster child for censorship for lack of quality.
Right before this movie came on Cinemax, Jodi Foster's Contact was before it and in contact Jay Leno joked how disappointed aliens who recieve our TV broadcasts 26 years after we send them because of the vast distances, would be let down if the aliens are Cubs fans.
Well, if any aliens are peaceful or ambivalent about contacting us ---they'll feel compelled to annihilate us if they see this movie which a member of humanity produced !!!

Disregard the "pointless" reviews - it's simply an apocalyptic tale that stays true to its premise. All children fall comatose for ten years, then come back with sinister intentions. Yes, more survival horror, but with a good creepy build-up. You can tell an intelligent person designed the story. The film falls a little flat, but is surely watchable. It looks a little tv-movie fake, nothing serious. Hey - it's better than that pile Lord of Illusions...

I saw this on television, and was spared buyer's remorse. This movie must have been entirely produced and written by Clive Barker, because it was absolutely devoid of any plot just like his other works. Why all the kids develop a hive mentality is left unexplained. Why it (whatever "it" is) only affects children is left unexplained. Why the reverend didn't apply his own rambling insights that were left in the reverend's letter is left unexplained. What on earth did the letter even say? We only heard half sentences uttered by the guy reading it. And since when do Zombies read the Grapes of Wrath or any other book? How can they be so sullen and incommunicative and yet somehow capable of reflective thought and problem solving? What on earth was Clive Barker (and anyone else involved) thinking? The only thing worse I can think of is the movie Hellraiser. This movie was absolutely plotless. And why was that one guy such a wimp that he let a chick break his ankle? I've said too much already. I don't want to dignify this garbage with further attention. Nuff said.
