this have to rank a one of the poor italian genre picture that i have sit through . it about a virus that turn a scientist into a rot homicidal maniac and lead to government plan to bomb the town where he be at large . really and this be a disappointment and seeing a even z grade italian product usually succeed in at least be entertain . sadly panic be not one of those film . it pace be awful and a it drag on and on with little development or plot structure . and to add insult to injury and there really no tension or scar either . another bugbear for me be the fact that this one be set in the uk and despite be an italian production . many italian genre film do this but it rarely convince and be clearly do in an attempt to appeal to the anglo american market . but and frankly and sun kiss italian location be just more preferable to me and so this factor just make thing even more dreary . logic isn not a defining feature of italian movie in general and this one be no exception . quite why the government come to the decision to obliterate the town off the face of the planet because of the presence of a lone toxic madman be really never fully explain . neither be the event at the beginning of the movie where the virus break out detailed clearly at all . a swat team be call in and we briefly see a scientist with his hand over his face cover in green goo . and that it . it rubbish and incomprehensible . admittedly it seem obvious that the version i saw be cut of violence and nudity and which hardly help and but really that would only account for a small amount of miss material . ultimately and the film be wrap up in a seriously underwhelming manner too . panic do not come recommend . it just so shoddily put together and it unlikely to impress too many people . the only point of interest in it be that the lead character be call captain kirk without even a hint of irony .
