_New Life_ is a thrilling manhunt of a film with horror sequences that are seemingly inspired by the highpoints of the _Resident Evil_ and _The Last of Us_ franchises. The inclusion of ALS is mostly successful. The film ends up leaving you feeling like you know what director John Rosman was going for, but it doesn’t seem to totally click by the end of the film. With its intensity, and the outstandingly devastating performances of Hayley Erin and Sonya Walger, _New Life_ can be an anxiety inducing ride at times; a horror thriller that is just shy of cinematic excellence. **Full review:** https://bit.ly/ALSHorror
