What's the Story?

One year into a plague of flesh-eating, mind-altering worms, the nocturnal town of Ashland, Ohio, has embraced the parasites’ rule. Under cult-like Mayor Joshua, zealous Ranchers spread their gospel—by persuasion or by force. A trio of uninfected women cling to survival through scavenging, extreme hygiene, and evasion. But everyone breaks eventually, unleashing betrayal, sacrilege, and body horror.

The Review

Written by Parent Guide Plus Editors

Worm Town leans on disgusting imagery rather than sustained tension or atmosphere. Several scenes appear to exist primarily for shock value, and the dialogue is flat throughout.
